Isolate

An isolated, independent event propagation context.

An Isolate[T] object accepts events of type T on its input channel. One isolate can propagate events concurrently to other isolates -- it is a basic element of concurrency. Reactive values cannot be shared between isolates -- it is an error to use a reactive value originating in one isolate in some different isolate.

Isolates are defined by extending the Isolate trait. The events passed to isolates can be subscribed to using their source reactive. Here is an example:

class MyPrinter extends Isolate[String] {
react <<= source onEvent {
  e => println(e)
}
}

Separate isolate instances that exist at runtime are created using isolate systems. The isolate method in the isolate system requires a scheduler to execute the isolate. Here is an example:

import Scheduler.Implicits.globalExecutionContext
val isolateSystem = IsolateSystem.default("MyIsolateSystem")
val channel = isolateSystem.isolate(Proto[MyPrinter])

Creating an isolate returns its channel. Reactives can be attached to channels to propagate their events to isolates.

val emitter = new Reactive.Emitter[String]
channel.attach(emitter)
emitter += "Hi!" // eventually, this is printed by `MyPrinter`

To stop an isolate, its channel needs to be sealed, and all the previously attached reactives need to be closed.

emitter.close()
channel.seal()

Isolates also receive special SysEvents on the sysEvents reactive. If a subscription on the source reactive throws a non-fatal exception, the exception is emitted on the failures reactive.

T: the type of the events this isolate produces
