Struct session_types::ChanSelect [] [src]

pub struct ChanSelect<'c, T> {
    // some fields omitted
}

Heterogeneous selection structure for channels

This builds a structure of channels that we wish to select over. This is structured in a way such that the channels selected over cannot be interacted with (consumed) as long as the borrowing ChanSelect object exists. This is necessary to ensure memory safety.

The type parameter T is a return type, ie we store a value of some type T that is returned in case its associated channels is selected on wait()

Methods

impl<'c, T> ChanSelect<'c, T>
[src]

fn new() -> ChanSelect<'c, T>

fn add_recv_ret<E, P, A: Send>(&mut self, chan: &'c Chan<E, Recv<A, P>>, ret: T)

Add a channel whose next step is Recv

Once a channel has been added it cannot be interacted with as long as it is borrowed here (by virtue of borrow checking and lifetimes).

fn add_offer_ret<E, P, Q>(&mut self, chan: &'c Chan<E, Offer<P, Q>>, ret: T)

fn wait(self) -> T

Find a Receiver (and hence a Chan) that is ready to receive.

This method consumes the ChanSelect, freeing up the borrowed Receivers to be consumed.

fn len(&self) -> usize

How many channels are there in the structure?

impl<'c> ChanSelect<'c, usize>
[src]

Default use of ChanSelect works with usize and returns the index of the selected channel. This is also the implementation used by the chan_select! macro.

fn add_recv<E, P, A: Send>(&mut self, c: &'c Chan<E, Recv<A, P>>)

fn add_offer<E, P, Q>(&mut self, c: &'c Chan<E, Offer<P, Q>>)
