  8. def asInstanceOf [T0] : T0

    This method is used to cast the receiver object to be of type T0.

    This method is used to cast the receiver object to be of type T0.

    Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression1.asInstanceOf[String] will throw a ClassCastException at runtime, while the expressionList(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]] will not. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested typed.

  10. def close () : Unit

    Close the channel.

    Close the channel. Removes references to any observers and triggers the closes events. New observers can no longer be added, and further sends become no-ops.

    This method is serialized to ensure that close and send events do not interleave.

  11. val closes : Future[Unit]

  14. def eq (arg0: AnyRef) : Boolean

    This method is used to test whether the argument (arg0) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    This method is used to test whether the argument (arg0) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    The eq method implements an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_relation equivalence relation] on non-null instances of AnyRef: * It is reflexive: for any non-null instance x of type AnyRef, x.eq(x) returns true. * It is symmetric: for any non-null instances x and y of type AnyRef, x.eq(y) returns true if and only if y.eq(x) returns true. * It is transitive: for any non-null instances x, y, and z of type AnyRef if x.eq(y) returns true and y.eq(z) returns true, then x.eq(z) returns true.

    Additionally, the eq method has three other properties. * It is consistent: for any non-null instances x and y of type AnyRef, multiple invocations of x.eq(y) consistently returns true or consistently returns false. * For any non-null instance x of type AnyRef, x.eq(null) and null.eq(x) returns false. * null.eq(null) returns true.

    When overriding the equals or hashCode methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (o1 eq o2), they should be equal to each other (o1 == o2) and they should hash to the same value (o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode).

    arg0

    the object to compare against this object for reference equality.

    returns

    true if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; false otherwise.

    definition classes: AnyRef
  15. def equals (arg0: Any) : Boolean

    This method is used to compare the receiver object (this) with the argument object (arg0) for equivalence.

    This method is used to compare the receiver object (this) with the argument object (arg0) for equivalence.

    The default implementations of this method is an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_relation equivalence relation]: * It is reflexive: for any instance x of type Any, x.equals(x) should return true. * It is symmetric: for any instances x and y of type Any, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true. * It is transitive: for any instances x, y, and z of type AnyRef if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.

    If you override this method, you should verify that your implementation remains an equivalence relation. Additionally, when overriding this method it is often necessary to override hashCode to ensure that objects that are "equal" (o1.equals(o2) returns true) hash to the same scala.Int (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)).

    arg0

    the object to compare against this object for equality.

    returns

    true if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; false otherwise.

  20. def hashCode () : Int

    Returns a hash code value for the object.

    Returns a hash code value for the object.

    The default hashing algorithm is platform dependent.

    Note that it is allowed for two objects to have identical hash codes (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)) yet not be equal (o1.equals(o2) returns false). A degenerate implementation could always return 0. However, it is required that if two objects are equal (o1.equals(o2) returns true) that they have identical hash codes (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)). Therefore, when overriding this method, be sure to verify that the behavior is consistent with the equals method.

    returns

    the hash code value for the object.

  21. def isInstanceOf [T0] : Boolean

    This method is used to test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is T0.

    This method is used to test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is T0.

    Note that the test result of the test is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression1.isInstanceOf[String] will return false, while the expression List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]] will return true. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested typed.

    returns

    true if the receiver object is an instance of erasure of type T0; false otherwise.

  29. def pipe [B >: A] (to: ChannelSource[B]) : Observer

    definition classes: Channel
  30. def respond (listener: (A) ⇒ Future[Unit]) : Observer

    Subscribe to messages on this channel.

    Subscribe to messages on this channel. If the channel is closed, this method still returns an Observer. This is a trade-off to avoid excessive lock-contention. Listen for close events if this affects your use case.

    Note: all subclasses of Channel *must* ensure ordered, single-threaded delivery of messages. This means that the callback param k should NEVER be invoked by two threads at once.

    Furthermore, respond() must publish all operations to shared variables to any Threads that will later invoke param k. Thus, any shared variables accessed only from within k needn't be synchronized or annotated volatile.

    Note: hard references may be kept to callbacks added to a channel It is the callers responsibility to dispose() of the Observer to prevent memory leaks.

    returns

    an observer object representing the subscription.

    definition classes: ChannelSourceChannel
  31. def responds : Channel[Observer]

    A Channel of receive events.

    A Channel of receive events. When a receiver is added to the Channel, a message is sent.

  32. def send (a: A) : Seq[Future[Observer]]

    Send a message to all observers.

    Send a message to all observers. Returns a Seq[Future[Observer]] that indicates completion of delivery for each observer.

    Note: Delivery is serialized, meaning messages are always delivered by one thread at a time. This ensures that messages arrive in-order, and context-switching cannot interleave deliveries.

  33. def serialized [A] (f: ⇒ A) : Future[A]

    Ensures that events happen in order, one thread at a time.

    Ensures that events happen in order, one thread at a time. This prevents interleaving of message delivery (respond) and lifecycle (close) events.

    Furthermore, it can be used to atomically perform several operations to a Channel at once, without the side-effects of those operations being triggered until the whole "batch" of operations complete. For example, this can be used to attach several observers at once without the possibility of one of the observers being invoked before the others were attached. If two or more observers share mutable state, this would be used to eliminate race-conditions leading to data-integrity woes.
