[vlc-devel] [PATCH 0/6] New executor API

[Romain Vimont]

This patchset follows previous RFCs ([1] and [2]).

Changes from RFCv2:
 - various bugfixes
 - add a new function vlc_executor_WaitIdle() to wait for all tasks to be
   either canceled or complete
 - add executor unit tests
 - use executor in fetcher and thumbnailer (was already done in preparser)
 - remove background worker

Regards,
Romain
