Erlang Monitor Type -



Erlang Monitor Type -

full discloser: i've started learning erlang. forgive me if i'm beingness nieve. in erlang manual signature monitor function is:

monitor(type, item) -> monitorref

according rest of documentation:

currently processes can monitored, i.e. allowed type process, other types may allowed in future.

monitor semantics seem pretty inherently tied processes i.e. doesn't create sense monitor other process. having parameter seems border on paranoia rather trying plan future. these other things might allowed monitored in future?

i don't know designers may have had in mind, i'd guess remote nodes.

it may create sense process grouping (http://www.erlang.org/doc/man/pg2.html) monitored.
