Struct Sender

pub struct Sender<T, const N: usize> { /* private fields */ }

The sender of the channel.

This is a the main channel component, as this is stored in static memory, The Sender is the owner of the memory. You can use it from multiple locations by storing it in a static variable.

static_mem doesn’t have something like channel function, Because, we don’t have heap to store the Sender and give you an Arc to clone it. So, the user has to create the receiver from the sender manually.

Use new_receiver to create a receiver. It will start from the same point as the sender.

Broadcast messages sent by using the send method.

Examples

use blinkcast::static_mem::Sender;

let sender = Sender::<i32, 4>::new();
let mut receiver = sender.new_receiver();

sender.send(1);
sender.send(2);

assert_eq!(receiver.recv(), Some(1));
assert_eq!(receiver.recv(), Some(2));
assert_eq!(receiver.recv(), None);

Implementations

impl<T: Clone, const N: usize> Sender<T, N>

pub fn send(&self, value: T)

Sends a message to the channel. If the channel is full, the oldest message will be overwritten. So the receiver must be quick or it will lose the old data.

pub const fn new() -> Self

Creates a new channel with a buffer of size N.

pub fn new_receiver(&self) -> Receiver<'_, T, N>

Creates a new receiver that starts from the same point as the sender.

Examples

use blinkcast::static_mem::Sender;

let sender = Sender::<i32, 4>::new();

sender.send(1);

let mut receiver = sender.new_receiver();
assert_eq!(receiver.recv(), None);

sender.send(2);
assert_eq!(receiver.recv(), Some(2));
assert_eq!(receiver.recv(), None);

Trait Implementations

impl<T: Clone, const N: usize> Default for Sender<T, N>

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl<T: Clone + Send, const N: usize> Send for Sender<T, N>

impl<T: Clone + Send, const N: usize> Sync for Sender<T, N>
