Folks, How should I use send-new-place-channel-to-named-dest? The first argument /ch/ is contracted to be a *channel? and the documentation says:
> The channel ch should be a connection to a message-router. I am not sure what a “message-router” is (other than a function that loops over its event containers). I am less confident yet what a “connection to a message-router” is. I want to set up a side-channel to the remote place. I want this to be a place-channel with respect to the "hello-world" place. This is a de-commented version of the example in the documentation, along with my failed attempt at adding a side-channel. Eventually I’d like to broadcast to this place -- but that’s for a later day. Thanks, Tim ;; --------------------------------------------------------------------- #lang racket/base (require racket/place/distributed racket/place racket/class) (provide hello-world) (define (hello-world) (place ch (define id (place-channel-get ch)) (printf/f "hello-world “~a” up and running~%" id) (define chnl (place-channel-get ch)) (printf/f "hello-world got chnl: ~s~%" chnl) (printf "hello-world received: ~a\n" (place-channel-get ch)) (place-channel-put ch "Hello World\n") (printf "hello-world sent: Hello World\n"))) (module+ main ;; create node and pl separately so I can #:named the place (define node (create-place-node "localhost" #:listen-port 6344)) ;; [!] this prints out (to stdout) "(6344)" (define pl (supervise-place-at node #:thunk #t #:named 'bubbles (quote-module-path "..")
