Demonstrates sending and receiving messages between two threads.

Synopsis

msgpassing

Description

Demonstrates how to send messages between threads or tasks.

The main() routine of the program creates a message port where it can receive messages. It then spawns a thread. This thread creates its own message port, and a message. The thread then sends the message to the parent message port. Once the parent receives the message, it passes it on to the thread.
