Control.Distributed.Session.Closure

Description

We cannot create a Closure of a Session, because its type parameters are of a different kind than *.

To accomedate for this drawback we define two data types that existentially quantify the type parameters of a Session.

We also define a set of static and closure functions for remotely spawning sessions.

Synopsis

Encapsulation

data SpawnSession a b where Source #

Data type that encapsulates two sessions for the purpose of remotely spawning them

The session types of the sessions are existentially quantified, but we still ensure duality and constrain them properly, such that they can be passed to evalSession.

Constructors

SpawnSession :: (HasConstraintST Serializable s, HasConstraintST Serializable (DualST s), Typeable a, Typeable b) => Session (Cap '[] s) r a -> Session (Cap '[] (DualST s)) r b -> SpawnSession a b 

data SessionWrap a where Source #

Data type that encapsulates a single session performing no session typed action that can be remotely spawned.

We use this data type mostly for convenience in combination with evalSessionEq allowing us to avoid the Serializable constraint.

Constructors

SessionWrap :: Session s s a -> SessionWrap a 

RemoteTable

sessionRemoteTable :: RemoteTable -> RemoteTable Source #

RemoteTable that binds all in this module defined static functions to their corresponding evaluation functions.

Static and Closures

Singular

remoteSessionStatic :: Static (SerializableDict a -> Closure (SessionWrap a) -> Process a) Source #

Static function for remotely spawning a single session

When remotely spawning any session we must always pass it the ProcessId and NodeId of the spawning process.

We must pass a Closure of a SessionWrap instead of just a SessionWrap, because that would require serializing a SessionWrap which is not possible.

Furthermore, we must also pass a SerializableDict that shows how to serialize a value of type a.

remoteSessionClosure :: Static (SerializableDict a) -> Closure (SessionWrap a) -> Closure (Process a) Source #

Closure function for remotely spawning a single session

remoteSessionStatic' :: Static (Closure (SessionWrap ()) -> Process ()) Source #

Same as remoteSessionStatic, except that we do not need to provide a SerializableDict.

remoteSessionClosure' :: Closure (SessionWrap ()) -> Closure (Process ()) Source #

Same as remoteSessionClosure, except that we do not need to provide a SerializableDict.

SpawnChannel

spawnChannelStatic :: Static (SerializableDict a -> Closure (ReceivePort a -> SessionWrap ()) -> ReceivePort a -> Process ()) Source #

A static function specific to the lifted spawnChannel function that can be found in Control.Distributed.Session.Lifted

spawnChannelClosure :: Static (SerializableDict a) -> Closure (ReceivePort a -> SessionWrap ()) -> Closure (ReceivePort a -> Process ()) Source #

A closure specific to the lifted spawnChannel function that can be found in Control.Distributed.Session.Lifted

Local Remote Evaluation

evalLocalSession :: Typeable a => (ProcessId, NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession a ())) -> Process a Source #

Function that evalutes the first argument of a SpawnSession in a local manner.

It is local in that we do not create an accompanying closure.

remoteSpawnSessionStatic :: Static (SerializableDict a -> (ProcessId, NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession a ())) -> Process ()) Source #

Static function for remotely evaluating the second argument of a SpawnSession.

This function works dually to evalLocalSession.

remoteSpawnSessionClosure :: Static (SerializableDict a) -> (ProcessId, NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession a ())) -> Closure (Process ()) Source #

Closure for remotely evaluating the second argument of a SpawnSession

remoteSpawnSessionStatic' :: Static ((ProcessId, NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession () ())) -> Process ()) Source #

Same as remoteSpawnSessionStatic, except for that we do not need to provide a SerializableDict.

remoteSpawnSessionClosure' :: (ProcessId, NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession () ())) -> Closure (Process ()) Source #

Same as remoteSpawnSessionClosure, except for that we do not need to provide a SerializableDict.

Remote Remote Evaluation

rrSpawnSessionSendStatic :: Static ((ProcessId, NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession () ())) -> Process ()) Source #

Static function for remotely evaluating the second argument of a SpawnSession

This function is very similar to remoteSpawnSessionStatic'. The difference is that this function assumes that the other session was also remotely spawned.

Therefore we require an extra send of the ProcessId of the to be spawned process.

rrSpawnSessionSendClosure :: (ProcessId, NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession () ())) -> Closure (Process ()) Source #

Closure for remotely evaluating the second argument of a SpawnSession.

rrSpawnSessionExpectStatic :: Static ((NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession () ())) -> Process ()) Source #

Closure for remotely evaluating the first argument of a SpawnSession

This function acts dual to rrSpawnSessionSend and assumes that it will first receive a ProcessId.

rrSpawnSessionExpectClosure :: (NodeId, Closure (SpawnSession () ())) -> Closure (Process ()) Source #

Closure for remotely evaluating the first argument of a SpawnSession.
