some light on this.
I think this function is useful if you have a block with a message input
and a stream output (i.e., the block has a work function). To avoid that
the scheduler has to call the work function all the time even if there
is no message to handle, you can block in the work with
delete_head_blocking() until you receive a message.
Also I want to understand pair(car-cdr as well), any
info would help.
car and cdr seam to be some old school functions from Lisp times.
They are used to access the first and respectively second element of a
pair. You might want to use them in conjunction with PDUs, as PDUs are
pairs of a dictionary with metadata (1st element) and a blob with the
actual payload (2nd element).
Best,
Bastian
