Design meeting: RFC 3861 - iter! macro #350
Description
Summary
This meeting is to review RFC 3861 about adding the iter! macro. The iter! macro creates iterator closures which evaluate to an iterator. Within the body, the yield keyword can be used to give iterator values to the caller. This means the compiler can generate the state machine for you, which is especially useful for iterators with complex state transitions.
I'd like to get the rest of the Lang team's opinion of this and 🤞 start getting checkboxes so we can move towards stabilizing iter!.
