Is it possible to use tornado's gen.engine and gen.Task with twisted?

Question

The project I am working on is all written in Tornado, but I have included a bit of Twisted to deal with asynchronous XML-RPC. I was wondering if you can use Tornado\'s gen.engi

Answer 1

Sure - but it's called inlineCallbacks in Twisted:

from twisted.internet.defer import inlineCallbacks

@inlineCallbacks
def foo():
    x = yield bar()
    print x
