 |
timeout in ms is the time, in milliseconds, that this endpoint has to write the specified data to the channel. The default value is -1, which means there is no time limit.
|
 |
element valid? specifies whether the element is valid. If TRUE, the endpoint records the element valid? flag. If FALSE, the endpoint ignores the value of element. The endpoint does nothing if both element valid? and last element? are FALSE. The default is TRUE.
|
 |
element specifies the data to write to the channel.
|
|
last element? specifies whether this is the last element that the endpoint writes to the channel. The default is FALSE. If TRUE, the endpoint marks the channel as closed and ignores further calls to write. The reader endpoint can continue reading data until the last element? output of the reader endpoint returns TRUE.
|
|
abort specifies whether to abort this channel. If abort is TRUE, this endpoint marks the channel as closed and ignores further calls to write. Meanwhile, the aborted? output returns TRUE on the next call of this endpoint.
|
|
size specifies the maximum number of elements that can be buffered in the channel. The default is unlimited. The channel size is initialized on the first call to the writer endpoint, after which the endpoint ignores the size input.
|
 |
timed out? returns TRUE if the amount of time specified by timeout in ms elapses before the endpoint writes the data specified in element to the channel.
|
 |
count returns the number of elements in the channel after this endpoint updates the channel. Use this output to monitor the relative writing and reading speed of the channel endpoints and make adjustments, if necessary.
|
 |
channel is the channel wire that connects this endpoint to a reader endpoint.
|
|
aborted? returns TRUE if abort occurred on this endpoint or the reader endpoints connected to the channel. If aborted? is TRUE, further calls to this endpoint will do nothing except returning aborted? TRUE again.
