ReceiveChannel

interface ReceiveChannel<out E> (source)

Receiver’s interface to Channel.

Properties

isClosedForReceive	`abstract val isClosedForReceive: Boolean` Returns `true` if this channel was closed by invocation of close on the SendChannel side and all previously sent items were already received. This means that calling receive will result in a ClosedReceiveChannelException. If the channel was closed because of an exception, it is considered closed, too, but is called a failed channel. All suspending attempts to receive an element from a failed channel throw the original close cause exception.
isEmpty	`abstract val isEmpty: Boolean` Returns `true` if the channel is empty (contains no elements), which means that an attempt to receive will suspend. This function returns `false` if the channel is closed for `receive`.
onReceive	`abstract val onReceive: SelectClause1<E>` Clause for the select expression of the receive suspending function that selects with the element received from the channel. The select invocation fails with an exception if the channel is closed for `receive` (see close for details).

Functions

cancel	`abstract fun cancel( cause: CancellationException? = null ): Unit` Cancels reception of remaining elements from this channel with an optional cause. This function closes the channel and removes all buffered sent elements from it.
iterator	`abstract operator fun iterator(): ChannelIterator<E>` Returns a new iterator to receive elements from this channel using a `for` loop. Iteration completes normally when the channel is closed for `receive` without a cause and throws the original close cause exception if the channel has failed.
poll	`abstract fun poll(): E?` Retrieves and removes an element from this channel if its not empty, or returns `null` if the channel is empty or is is closed for `receive` without a cause. It throws the original close cause exception if the channel has failed.
receive	`abstract suspend fun receive(): E` Retrieves and removes an element from this channel if it’s not empty, or suspends the caller while the channel is empty, or throws a ClosedReceiveChannelException if the channel is closed for `receive`. If the channel was closed because of an exception, it is called a failed channel and this function will throw the original close cause exception.

Inheritors

ActorScope	`interface ActorScope<E> : CoroutineScope, ReceiveChannel<E>` Scope for actor coroutine builder.
Channel	`interface Channel<E> : SendChannel<E>, ReceiveChannel<E>` Channel is a non-blocking primitive for communication between a sender (via SendChannel) and a receiver (via ReceiveChannel). Conceptually, a channel is similar to Java’s BlockingQueue, but it has suspending operations instead of blocking ones and can be closed.
