class Ractor::ClosedError - RDoc Documentation

# class Ractor::ClosedError

Raised when an attempt is made to send a message to a closed port, or to retrieve a message from a closed and empty port. Ports may be closed explicitly with `Ractor#close_outgoing`/close_incoming and are closed implicitly when a `Ractor` terminates.

    r = Ractor.new { sleep(500) }
    r.close_outgoing
    r.take # Ractor::ClosedError

`ClosedError` is a descendant of `StopIteration`, so the closing of the ractor will break the loops without propagating the error:

    r = Ractor.new do
      loop do
        msg = receive # raises ClosedError and loop traps it
        puts "Received: #{msg}"
      end
      puts "loop exited"
    end

    3.times{|i| r << i}
    r.close_incoming
    r.take
    puts "Continue successfully"

This will print:

    Received: 0
    Received: 1
    Received: 2
    loop exited
    Continue successfully
