<h1 id="selection" class="section-header"><a href="#selection">Selection</a></h1>
|
|
|
<p>The <a href="macro.select.html"><code>select!</code></a> macro allows you to define a set of channel operations, wait until any one of
|
|
|
them becomes ready, and finally execute it. If multiple operations are ready at the same time,
|
|
|
a random one among them is selected.</p>
|
|
|
<p>It is also possible to define a <code>default</code> case that gets executed if none of the operations are
|
|
|
ready, either right away or for a certain duration of time.</p>
|
|
|
<p>An operation is considered to be ready if it doesn't have to block. Note that it is ready even
|
|
|
when it will simply return an error because the channel is disconnected.</p>
|
|
|
<p>An example of receiving a message from two channels:</p>

|
|
<p>If you need to select over a dynamically created list of channel operations, use <a href="struct.Select.html"><code>Select</code></a>
|
|
|
instead. The <a href="macro.select.html"><code>select!</code></a> macro is just a convenience wrapper around <a href="struct.Select.html"><code>Select</code></a>.</p>
|
|
|
<h1 id="extra-channels" class="section-header"><a href="#extra-channels">Extra channels</a></h1>
|
|
|
<p>Three functions can create special kinds of channels, all of which return just a <a href="struct.Receiver.html"><code>Receiver</code></a>
|
|
|
handle:</p>
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
<li><a href="fn.after.html"><code>after</code></a> creates a channel that delivers a single message after a certain duration of time.</li>
|
|
|
<li><a href="fn.tick.html"><code>tick</code></a> creates a channel that delivers messages periodically.</li>
|
|
|
<li><a href="fn.never.html"><code>never</code></a> creates a channel that never delivers messages.</li>
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
<p>These channels are very efficient because messages get lazily generated on receive operations.</p>
|
|
|
<p>An example that prints elapsed time every 50 milliseconds for the duration of 1 second:</p>
