C# Class clojure.lang.Agent

Represents an Agent.

See the Clojure documentation for more information.

The Java implementation plays many more games with thread pools. The CLR does not provide such support. We need to revisit this in CLR 4. Until then: TODO: Implement our own thread pooling?

Public Methods

Method	Description
AddError ( Exception e ) : void	Add an error.
Agent ( Object state, IPersistentMap meta ) : System	Construct an agent with given state and metadata.
Agent ( object state ) : System	Construct an agent with given state and null metadata.
clearErrors ( ) : void	Clear the agent's errors. Lowercase-name and for core.clj compatibility.
deref ( ) : object	Gets the (immutable) value the reference is holding.
dispatch ( IFn fn, ISeq args, System.Boolean solo ) : object	Send a message to the agent.
getErrors ( ) : ISeq	Get the agent's errors. Lowercase-name (and is a method instead of a property) for core.clj compatibility.
releasePendingSends ( ) : int	Enqueue nested actions. lowercase for core.clj compatibility
shutdown ( ) : void	Shutdown all threads executing. We need to work on this.

Private Methods

Method	Description
DispatchAction ( System.Action action ) : void	Send an action (encapsulated message). If there is a transaction running on this thread, defer execution until the transaction ends (enqueue the action on the transaction). If there is already an action running, enqueue it (nested). Otherwise, queue it for execution.
Enqueue ( System.Action action ) : void	Enqueue an action in the pending queue. Spin-locks to update the queue.
SetState ( object newState ) : bool	Set the state.

public AddError ( Exception e ) : void
e	System.Exception	The exception to add.
return	void

Agent() public method
