; Part of Scheme 48 1.9.  See file COPYING for notices and license.

; This is file fluid.scm.

; Fluid (dynamic) variables.

; Fluid variables are implemented using deep binding.  This allows
; each thread in a multiprocessor system to have its own fluid
; environment, and allows for fast thread switching in a multitasking
; one.

; CURRENT-THREAD and SET-CURRENT-THREAD! access a special virtual
; machine register.  On a multiprocessor, each processor would have
; its own current-thread register.  The run-time system stores the
; current thread in this register.

; Here we define a particular thread record, but a different one is
; defined by the (uniprocessor) threads package.  The current thread
; may actually be any kind of record as long as its first component
; can be used by the fluid variable implementation to maintain the
; deep-binding dynamic environment and its second component can be
; used by DYNAMIC-WIND.  This is kind of gross but it is motivated by
; efficiency concerns.
