parallel\run

(1.0.0)

parallel\run — Execution

Beschreibung

parallel\run ( Closure $task ) : ?Future

Shall schedule task for execution in parallel.

parallel\run ( Closure $task , array $argv ) : ?Future

Shall schedule task for execution in parallel, passing argv at execution time.

Automatic Scheduling

If a \parallel\Runtime internally created and cached by a previous call to parallel\run() is idle, it will be used to execute the task. If no \parallel\Runtime is idle parallel will create and cache a \parallel\Runtime.

Hinweis:

\parallel\Runtime objects created by the programmer are not used for automatic scheduling.

Parameter-Liste

task

A Closure with specific characteristics.

argv

An array of arguments with specific characteristics to be passed to task at execution time.

Task Characteristics

Closures scheduled for parallel execution must not:

  • accept or return by reference
  • accept or return internal objects (see notes)
  • execute a limited set of instructions

Instructions prohibited in Closures intended for parallel execution are:

  • yield
  • use by-reference
  • declare class
  • declare named function

Hinweis:

Nested closures may yield or use by-reference, but must not contain class or named function declarations.

Hinweis:

No instructions are prohibited in the files which the task may include.

Arguments Characteristics

Arguments must not:

  • contain references
  • contain resources
  • contain internal objects (see notes)

Hinweis:

In the case of file stream resources, the resource will be cast to the file descriptor and passed as int where possible, this is unsupported on Windows.

Internal Objects Notes

Internal objects generally use a custom structure which cannot be copied by value safely, PHP currently lacks the mechanics to do this (without serialization) and so only objects that do not use a custom structure may be shared.

Some internal objects do not use a custom structure, for example parallel\Events\Event and so may be shared.

Closures are a special kind of internal object and support being copied by value, and so may be shared.

Channels are central to writing parallel code and support concurrent access and execution by necessity, and so may be shared.

Warnung

A user class that extends an internal class may use a custom structure as defined by the internal class, in which case they cannot be copied by value safely, and so may not be shared.

Rückgabewerte

Warnung

The return \parallel\Future must not be ignored when the task contains a return or throw statement.

Exceptions

Warnung

Shall throw \parallel\Runtime\Error\Closed if \parallel\Runtime was closed.

Warnung

Shall throw \parallel\Runtime\Error\IllegalFunction if task is a closure created from an internal function.

Warnung

Shall throw \parallel\Runtime\Error\IllegalInstruction if task contains illegal instructions.

Warnung

Shall throw \parallel\Runtime\Error\IllegalParameter if task accepts or argv contains illegal variables.

Warnung

Shall throw \parallel\Runtime\Error\IllegalReturn if task returns illegally.
