I'm working with the code at the following gist and also pasted below:
http://gist.github.com/421550
I'd like to have execution of a separate thread (agent) continue
running until it sees the atom 'running' change to false.
Unfortunately, the program doesn't return from the send-off but
to my understanding it should. Why won't it return? I'm using
clojure 1.1.
TIA
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
(ns nmanage)
(def running (atom true))
(defn process
[]
(when @running
(prn "hi")
(Thread/sleep 1000))
(recur))
;;;
(send-off (agent nil) (process))
(do
(prn "this won't print - execution doesn't make it this far")
(Thread/sleep 2000)
(reset! running false))
