[source: scala/concurrent/pilib.scala]
object pilib
extends AnyRef

Library for using Pi-calculus concurrent primitives in Scala. As an example, the definition of a two-place buffer using the pilib library looks like: 

  def Buffer[a](put: Chan[a], get: Chan[a]) {
    def B0 { choice ( put * { x => B1(x) } ) }
    def B1(x: a) { choice ( get(x) * B0, put * { y => B2(x, y) } ) }
    def B2(x: a, y: a) { choice ( get(x) * B1(y) ) }
    B0
  }
