is setMaxMailboxSize not implemented yet or is it bugged?

This test program does not work right:

import  core.sys.posix.unistd;

import  std.stdio,
        std.concurrency,
        std.random;

void main()
{
        auto a = spawn( &bar, thisTid );
        setMaxMailboxSize( a, 1, OnCrowding.block );
        writeln( "Mail box set" );
        auto b = spawn( &foo, thisTid, a );

}

void foo( Tid p, Tid t )
{
        t.send( 1 );
        t.send( 2 );
        t.send( 3 );
        writeln( "FOO is done!" );
}

void bar( Tid p )
{

        receive( (int x ) { writeln( "BAR got ", x );} );
        sleep( 1 );
        receive( (int x ) { writeln( "BAR got ", x );} );
        sleep( 1 );
        receive( (int x ) { writeln( "BAR got ", x );} );
        sleep( 1 );
}

It prints:
Mail box set
BAR got 1
FOO is done!
BAR got 2
BAR got 3

foo should be getting blocked.

This is a little better example of it not working: import core.sys.posix.unistd; import std.stdio, std.concurrency, std.random; enum MAX = 1; void main() { auto a = spawn( &bar, thisTid ); setMaxMailboxSize( a, MAX, OnCrowding.block ); writeln( "BAR mailbox set to ", MAX ); auto b = spawn( &foo, thisTid, a ); } void foo( Tid p, Tid t ) { for( int x = 0; x < 5; ++x ) { writeln( "FOO SEND ", x ); t.send( x ); writeln( "FOO READY" ); } writeln( "FOO is done!" ); } void bar( Tid p ) { sleep( 1 ); for( int x = 0; x < 5; ++x ) { writeln( "BAR READY" ); receive( (int x ) { writeln( "BAR got ", x );} ); sleep( 1 ); } writeln( "BAR is done!" ); } // Result BAR mailbox set to 1 FOO SEND 0 FOO READY FOO SEND 1 FOO READY FOO SEND 2 FOO READY FOO SEND 3 FOO READY FOO SEND 4 FOO READY FOO is done! BAR READY BAR got 0 BAR READY BAR got 1 BAR READY BAR got 2 BAR READY BAR got 3 BAR READY BAR got 4 BAR is done! -B:wq

It's just an empty function currently. If you want to see for yourself, it's in dmd2/src/phobos/std/concurrency.d.

It seems it got implemented today. :) http://www.dsource.org/projects/phobos/changeset/1662 You can use the SVN version of Phobos, or wait for the next release. -Lars
