Just 'yield animate(win, xrange(10))' and have the trampoline recognize generators. See the PEP 342 trampoline example, which does this. When the animate() is exhausted, it'll resume the "calling" function. > I don't suppose there could be a way to make the yield inside the >subfunction have the same effect as if it was inside the function that >called it? Perhaps some special notation, either at function calling or >at function definition? Yes, it's 'yield' at the function calling. :) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
