Idea: rmq.app.async and rmq.app.main

[jamonholmgren]

Idea:

def some_method
  rmq.app.async do
    load_something_that_takes_a_long_time
    rmq.app.main do
      update_the_ui
    end
  end
end

In RedPotion:

def some_method
  app.async do
    load_something_that_takes_a_long_time
    app.main do
      update_the_ui
    end
  end
end

Allow an optional queue name:

def some_method
  app.async queue: "com.clearsightstudio.myapp" do

  end
end

Also the ability to make main synchronous within the current context:

def some_method
  app.async do
    app.main sync: true do
    end
    # won't run this until the above finishes
  end
end

Thoughts?

That's great. app.main is a bit obscure, however, if you see it without context.

app.main_thread?

Me gusta.
