Can't build examples about distributed-process HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi Ben,

The directories benchmarks/, doc/, examples/ and network-transport-pipes/ are very out of date. I will clean this up soon, as we hope to do a first release on Hackage some time soon.

If you're interested in examples for Network.Transport, have a look at the tests in network-transport/tests. Similarly, for examples of the Cloud Haskell layer look at distributed-process/tests.

Also, feel free to ping me at #HaskellTransport on freenode if you have any questions.

Ok, thanks for the info Edsko. I'll ping you next time I run into trouble.

In absence of the examples at this moment, I have built a simple ping/pong example utilizing the SimpleLocalnet for remote node discovery. However, the closure function referenced from my spawn never seems to get called and hence the receiveWait never returns. There are no errors raised at runtime either.

I'd appreciate any input in finding the cause.

Hi Alan,

You are passing initRemoteTable, which does not include the remotable functions that you create in your module. Instead, you should pass (__remoteTable initRemoteTable) as an argument when initializing Cloud Haskell.

Incidentally, the Hackage documentation contains some self-contained examples, and you can find more examples in the test/ directory.

Thanks Edsko for pointing out the cause. Much appreciate it and thanks for the great work you have been putting into this project.
