I am looking here: http://clojuredocs.org/clojure.core/release-pending-sends
It says: Normally, actions sent directly or indirectly during another action are held until the action completes (changes the agent's state). This function can be used to dispatch any pending sent actions immediately. This has no impact on actions sent during a transaction, which are still held until commit. If no action is occurring, does nothing. Returns the number of actions dispatched. I can not figure out what this means. This function takes no arguments? I see it defined like this: (release-pending-sends) So I can not call it on a specific agent, instead, this function is global in its effects? It effects every agent in my app? Or perhaps I am suppose to call it from inside the agent, and it only dismisses the functions that have piled up on that agents queue? If I do this: (def users (agent {})) (def contests (agent {})) (send users calculate-winnings-per-category) (send users calculate-winnings-total) (send users remove-the-losers) (send contests generate-new-contests) (send contests assign-prize-money) (release-pending-sends) What happens? The agent starts on whatever function happens to be put into its queue first, and it continues with the execution of that function, but all the other sends are cancelled? Also, is there a way to see how many functions are pending for an agent? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
