चैनल

A चैनल closes itself when its conversation completes; a pool of many keeps only the unfinished ones open, and close() ends one early and reports its error.

English reader names for the conversation family: channel, frame, send<T>, recv<T>

# =============================================================================
# channel — the conversation family under the English reader surface.
# =============================================================================
#
# What this teaches:
#   • `channel` is the en spelling of `चैनल`, the handle `call` returns
#   • `frame<T>` is the en spelling of `फ़्रेम<T>`, one typed frame
#   • `s.send<T>()` / `s.recv<T>()` are the en spellings of the outbound
#     `भेजना<T>` and inbound `पाना<T>` views
#
# Common mistakes:
#   • treating the words as reserved: `channel`, `frame`, `send` and `recv`
#     are type names only, and stay ordinary identifiers elsewhere
#
# See also: सेवा, चैनल, फ़्रेम, भेजना, पाना, संकेतक
# =============================================================================

fn count_items(channel s) → int {
    var int n ← 0
    for from s.recv<string>().cursor() const item {
        print item.data
        n ← n + 1
    }
    return n
}

main {
    const channel s ← call 'runtime:echo' ("salve")
    const send<value> outbound ← s.send<value>()
    outbound.da("ping")
    outbound.fini()
    print count_items(s)

    const channel second ← call 'runtime:echo' ("vale")
    const frame<string> ∪ none first ← second.recv<string>().accipe()
    print first?.data
}

Expected output:

salve

A चैनल closes itself when its conversation completes; a pool of many keeps only the unfinished ones open, and close() ends one early and reports its error.

# =============================================================================
# चैनल — a conversation closes itself when it completes; `close()` is early.
# =============================================================================
#
# What this teaches:
#   • Completion closes — when the handler returns (or fails), the चैनल
#     releases its handler task and router slot at once, even while its
#     handle still sits in a तालिका; the handle keeps reading as its result
#   • A pool of many — finished conversations cost nothing while the pool
#     waits on the rest, so a तालिका of many sermones is cheap
#   • Explicit close — `s.close()` ends a conversation early (a live handler
#     is cancelled, unread frames are dropped) and reports the error the
#     conversation ended with through `⇥ पाठ`; it returns `सत्य` when
#     this call closed the handle
#   • Last reference — a चैनल nobody can reach is closed as a safety net,
#     but errors from that automatic close are lost; call `close()` when the
#     error matters
#
# Common mistakes:
#   • expecting close() to wait — a handler still running is cancelled, so
#     read to the end first when its outcome matters
#   • keeping a चैनल inside a reference cycle — a cycle never reaches its
#     last reference, so the compiler warns (WARN031) and it never
#     auto-closes; `close()` it explicitly
