#5466: Documentation for Chan could be better
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Reporter: pumpkin | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: libraries/base
Version: 7.2.1 | Keywords:
Testcase: | Blockedby:
Os: Unknown/Multiple | Blocking:
Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
The summary is two words, and none of the operations say whether they
block or not. Someone on reddit was expecting a read to throw an exception
if the Chan was empty, for example. It also turns out that isEmptyChan is
deprecated, but the documentation doesn't mention it.
