| nwsFetch {nws} | R Documentation |
Fetch value associated with a variable from the shared netWorkSpace.
## S4 method for signature 'netWorkSpace': nwsFetch(.Object, xName)
.Object |
a netWorkSpace class object |
xName |
name of the variable to be fetched |
The nwsFetch method looks in the shared netWorkSpace .Object
for a value bound to xName; if it finds such a value, nwsFetch
returns it and removes it from the variable. If no value is found, nwsFetch blocks until a value for xName becomes available.
This operation is atomic. If there are multiple nwsFetch or
nwsFetchTry requests for a given xName, any given value from
the set of values associated with xName will be returned to just one requester.
If there is more than one value associated with xName, the particular
value removed depends on xName's behavior. See nwsDeclare for details.
## Not run:
ws <- netWorkSpace('nws example')
nwsStore(ws, 'x', 10)
nwsFetch(ws, 'x')
nwsFetch(ws, 'x') # no value for x; therefore block on fetch
