Crate shared_channel 

Multi-producer, multi-consumer FIFO queue communication primitives.

This module is extension of std::sync::mpsc, almost has same API with it. Differences are:

• A struct SharedReceiver is defined. This is clone-able struct (multi-consumer).
• A function shared_channel corresponding to function channel is defined. shared_channel returns a (Sender, SharedReceiver) tuple instead of (Sender, Receiver) tuple. Sender is a struct that defined at std::sync::mpsc.
• A function shared_sync_channel corresponding to function sync_channel is also defined.
• Some feature of std::sync::mpsc is not implemented yet, for example recv_timeout.

Example

Simple usage:

let (tx, rx) = shared_channel();
for i in 0..10 {
    let rx = rx.clone();
    thread::spawn(move || println!("{}", rx.recv().unwrap()));
}

for i in 0..10 {
    tx.send(i).unwrap();
}
