I have great use of the dictchannel.jl example. I wanted to add the method keys
to it so I thought that I simply add the function:
function keys(D::DictChannel)
keys(D.d)
end
as well s add the function name in the import (I tried also without adding the
"keys") :
import Base: put!, wait, i
the dictchannel is in the julia package as an example of Channels

You have defined a keys method for a DictChannel but the error message is for a
RemoteRef{DictChannel} which you have no method for.
Strangely makning a function
function keys(D::RemoteRef{DictChannel})
keys(D.d)
end
Gives also error:
LoadError: type RemoteRef has no field d
Also, for the function put! That does work the function looks like:
function put!(D::DictChannel, k, v)
D.d[k] = v
notify(D.cond_take)
I believe you need to "fetch" the value in the RemoteRef. This should return
your Dict that you can then use keys on.
Strangely though, if I modify the put! function as:
function put!(D::DictChannel, k, v)
D.d[k] = v
notify(D.cond_take)
Println(keys(D.d))
D
end
And run this I get
Any[2,3,1]
(I added keps in that order), i.e. This works
So it seemed the function definition of keys does not wor
