#![cfg(ipc)]
//! IPC tasks.
//!
//! This module uses [`ipc_channel`] and [`duct`] crates to define a worker process that can run tasks in a separate process instance.
//!
//! Each worker process can run multiple tasks in parallel, the worker type is [`Worker`]. Note that this module does not offer a fork
//! implementation, the worker processes begin from the start state. The primary use of process tasks is to make otherwise fatal tasks
//! recoverable, if the task calls unsafe code or code that can potentially terminate the entire process it should run using a [`Worker`].
//! If you only want to recover from panics in safe code consider using [`task::run_catch`] or [`task::wait_catch`] instead.
//!
//! This module also re-exports some [`ipc_channel`] types and functions. You can send IPC channels in the task request messages, this
//! can be useful for implementing progress reporting or to transfer large byte blobs.
//!
//! [`task::run_catch`]: crate::run_catch
//! [`task::wait_catch`]: crate::wait_catch
//! [`ipc_channel`]: https://docs.rs/ipc-channel
//! [`duct`]: https://docs.rs/duct
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! The example below demonstrates a worker-process setup that uses the same executable as the app-process.
//!
//! ```
//! # mod zng { pub mod env { pub use zng_env::*; } pub mod task { pub use zng_task::*; } }
//! #
//! fn main() {
//! zng::env::init!();
//! // normal app init..
//! # zng::task::doc_test(false, on_click());
//! }
//!
//! mod task1 {
//! # use crate::zng;
//! use zng::{task::ipc, env};
//!
//! const NAME: &str = "zng::example::task1";
//!
//! env::on_process_start!(|_| ipc::run_worker(NAME, work));
//! async fn work(args: ipc::RequestArgs<Request>) -> Response {
//! let rsp = format!("received 'task1' request `{:?}` in worker-process #{}", &args.request.data, std::process::id());
//! Response { data: rsp }
//! }
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, serde::Serialize, serde::Deserialize)]
//! pub struct Request { pub data: String }
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, serde::Serialize, serde::Deserialize)]
//! pub struct Response { pub data: String }
//!
//! // called in app-process
//! pub async fn start() -> ipc::Worker<Request, Response> {
//! ipc::Worker::start(NAME).await.expect("cannot spawn 'task1'")
//! }
//! }
//!
//! // This runs in the app-process, it starts a worker process and requests a task run.
//! async fn on_click() {
//! println!("app-process #{} starting a worker", std::process::id());
//! let mut worker = task1::start().await;
//! // request a task run and await it.
//! match worker.run(task1::Request { data: "request".to_owned() }).await {
//! Ok(task1::Response { data }) => println!("ok. {data}"),
//! Err(e) => eprintln!("error: {e}"),
//! }
//! // multiple tasks can be requested in parallel, use `task::all!` to await ..
//!
//! // the worker process can be gracefully shutdown, awaits all pending tasks.
//! let _ = worker.shutdown().await;
//! }
//!
//! ```
//!
//! Note that you can setup multiple workers the same executable, as long as the `on_process_start!` call happens
//! on different modules.
