Usage example

// Closure to async function
basync.run(function (ctx) {
    print("A")
    basync.await(ctx, basync.sleep(2500))
    print("B")
})

// Closure to async function with parameters
basync.run(function (ctx, a, b) {
    print("A: " + a)
    basync.await(ctx, basync.sleep(2500))
    print("B: " + b)
}, [1, 2])


// Deep nested async functions
local function f3(ctx) {
    print("THREAD: 3")
    basync.await(ctx, basync.sleep(1000))
    print("THREAD: 3")
}

local f2 = basync(function (ctx, a, b) {
    print("THREAD: 2")

    // Only function marked as async can be awaited!
    basync.await(ctx, basync(f3)())

    print("THREAD: 2")
    printf("RESULT: %d", a + b)
})

local f1 = basync(function (ctx) {
    print("THREAD: 1")
    basync.await(ctx, basync.sleep(1000))
    print("THREAD: 1")
    basync.await(ctx, f2(1, 2))
    print("THREAD: 1")
    print("FINISHED")
})

local r = basync.run(f1())
print(r.task.getstatus())
