I'm trying to execute an anonymous function on a worker from within a module:
getCores(pid) = remotecall_fetch(pid, ()->CPU_CORES) module Banana export getCores2 getCores2(pid) = remotecall_fetch(pid, ()->CPU_CORES) end Firstly, is using anonymous function,()->CPU_CORES, as above a good way to return a global variable from a worker? I can execute getCores successfully, but getCores2 fails: Is it possible to "escape" the anonymous function in some way? julia> getCores(2) 4 julia> using Banana julia> getCores2(2) WARNING: Module Banana not defined on process 2 fatal error on 2: ERROR: UndefVarError: Banana not defined in deserialize at serialize.jl:504 in handle_deserialize at serialize.jl:465 in deserialize at serialize.jl:696 in deserialize_datatype at serialize.jl:651 in handle_deserialize at serialize.jl:465 in deserialize_expr at serialize.jl:627 in handle_deserialize at serialize.jl:458 in deserialize_expr at serialize.jl:627 in handle_deserialize at serialize.jl:458 in deserialize_expr at serialize.jl:627 in handle_deserialize at serialize.jl:458 in deserialize at serialize.jl:556 in handle_deserialize at serialize.jl:465 in deserialize at serialize.jl:538 in handle_deserialize at serialize.jl:465 in deserialize at serialize.jl:696 in deserialize_datatype at serialize.jl:651 in handle_deserialize at serialize.jl:465 in message_handler_loop at multi.jl:863 in process_tcp_streams at multi.jl:852 in anonymous at task.jl:63 Worker 2 terminated.ERROR: ProcessExitedException() in yieldto at task.jl:71 in wait at task.jl:371 in wait at task.jl:286 in wait at channels.jl:93 in take! at channels.jl:82 in take! at multi.jl:804 in remotecall_fetch at multi.jl:730 in getCores2 at none:3 ERROR (unhandled task failure): EOFError: read end of file Julia>
