§starlang-process

Process primitives for Starlang (Distributed Rust Erlang Abstract Machine).

This crate provides the Process module API, mirroring Elixir’s Process:

  • Spawning: spawn, spawn_link, spawn_monitor
  • Links: [link], [unlink]
  • Monitors: [monitor], [demonitor]
  • Messaging: [send], [send_after]
  • Exit signals: [exit]
  • Process info: [alive], [self_pid]
  • Registration: [register], [whereis], [unregister]

§Example

ⓘ
use starlang_process::{spawn, send, self_pid};

// Spawn a new process
let pid = spawn(|ctx| async move {
    loop {
        if let Some(msg) = ctx.recv().await {
            println!("Received: {:?}", msg);
        }
    }
}).await?;

// Send a message
send(pid, &"hello")?;
