map-processes Function

Summary

Calls a predicate function on processes in turn until a true value is returned.

Package

mp

Signature

map-processes function => result

Arguments
function
A function taking one argument.
Values
result
A process or nil.
Description

The function map-processes calls function on processes.

function is passed each live process (as determined by process-alive-p) in turn as its single argument.

For a process argument p, if function returns nil then map-processes continues by calling function on another process, but if function returns true then map-processes returns p immediately and stops calling function (so function may not get called on all processes).
