Struct Recipient

pub struct Recipient<M, R> { /* private fields */ }

An address to a Service implementing any interface that takes a given message.

This is similar to an Addr, but it is bound to a single message rather than an interface. As such, this type is not meant for communicating with a service implementation, but rather as a handle to any service that can consume a given message. These can be back-channels or hooks that are configured externally through Inversion of Control (IoC).

Recipients are created through Addr::recipient.

Implementations

impl<M, R> Recipient<M, R>

where R: MessageResponse,

pub fn send(&self, message: M) -> R::Output

Sends a message to the service and returns the response.

This is equivalent to send on the originating address.

Trait Implementations

impl<M, R: MessageResponse> Clone for Recipient<M, R>

fn clone(&self) -> Self

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.
