[chuck-users] Inter-shred communication

[Ollie Glaskovik]

I'm trying to communicate between shreds. The docs say static data  
isn't completely implemented so I realize this may not be possible  
right now. If it is possible, I wondering if someone could let me  
know if I'm taking the correct approach here and how I might achieve  
this goal.

I run the command "chuck TheEvent.ck events.ck" and get this result:

[chuck](VM): sporking incoming shred: 3 (events2.ck)...
[chuck](VM): sporking incoming shred: 4 (events2.ck)...
[chuck](VM): sporking incoming shred: 5 (events2.ck)...
[chuck](VM): sporking incoming shred: 6 (events2.ck)...
"signaling" : (string)
"signaling" : (string)
"signaling" : (string)
"signaling" : (string)
...

It keeps signaling but the data is never printed. The three files  
used are given below.

Thanks for any help,

Ollie

========================= TheEvent.ck =========================

public class TheEvent extends Event
{
     static int value;
}


========================= events.ck =========================

// the event
TheEvent e;

machine.add( "events2.ck" );
machine.add( "events2.ck" );
machine.add( "events2.ck" );
machine.add( "events2.ck" );

// infinite time loop
while( true )
{
     // advance time
     1::second => now;

     // set data
     math.rand2( 0, 5 ) => e.value;

     // signal one waiting shred
     e.signal();

     <<<"signaling">>>;
}


========================= events2.ck =========================

// the event
TheEvent e;

// loop
while( true )
{
     // wait on event
     e => now;

     // get the data
     <<<me.id(), e.value>>>;
