Crate sync_channel

A blocking channel for Inter-Task Communication (ITC) with an internal queue for buffering messages.

This crate offers a blocking channel that allows multiple tasks to exchange messages through the use of a bounded-capacity intermediate buffer. Unlike the rendezvous channel, the sender and receiver do not need to rendezvous to send or receive data.

Only Send types can be sent or received through the channel.

This is not a zero-copy channel; to avoid copying large messages, use a reference type like Box or another layer of indirection.

Structs

• Receiver
  The receiver side of a channel.
• Sender
  The sender (transmit) side of a channel.

Enums

• ChannelStatus
  Indicates whether channel is Connected or Disconnected
• Error
  Error type for tracking different type of errors sender and receiver can encounter.

Functions

• new_channel
  Create a new channel that allows senders and receivers to asynchronously exchange messages via an internal intermediary buffer.
• new_channel_with
  Creates a new blocking channel with the specified deadlock prevention method.
