Synchronous channels, sometimes called rendez-vous channels, has the following semantics:
- send to an unclosed channel blocks until a read listener commits to receiving the value (via successfully locking).
See SyncChannel$.apply for creation of synchronous channels.

Read an item from the channel, suspending until the item has been received. Returns Failure(ChannelClosedException) if the channel was closed.

Create an Async.Source representing the send action of value x.
Create an Async.Source representing the send action of value x.
Note that each listener attached to and accepting an Unit value corresponds to x being sent once.
To create an Async.Source that sends the item exactly once regardless of listeners attached, wrap the send operation inside a gears.async.Future:
val sendOnce = Future(ch.send(x))
Attributes
- Returns
-
an Async.Source that resolves with
Right(())whenxis sent to the channel, orLeft(Closed)if the channel is already closed. This source will perform a send operation every time a listener is attached to it, or every time it is Async$.awaited on. - Inherited from:
- SendableChannel
Inherited and Abstract fields
An Async.Source corresponding to items being sent over the channel. Note that each listener attached to and accepting a Right value corresponds to one value received over the channel.
An Async.Source corresponding to items being sent over the channel. Note that each listener attached to and accepting a Right value corresponds to one value received over the channel.
To create an Async.Source that reads exactly one item regardless of listeners attached, wrap the read operation inside a gears.async.Future.
val readOnce = Future(ch.read(x))
