Std.Channel.send

1 declaration

fn

send: &Std.Channel.Channel[T] -> T -> Result[(), Std.Channel.ChannelError]

This is a callable function.

What it does

Put a value in, waiting while the channel is full.

Sending to a closed channel is refused rather than dropped. A producer

whose values were being discarded would have no way to find out, and that

is the failure most worth reporting.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • & borrows a value for this call instead of moving or copying it.
  • Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
  • Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
