process sleeps

[Ulf Wiger (AL/EAB)]

No, it will just fall through. 
 
timer:sleep(0) is equivalent to 
 
receive
after 0 -> ok
end
 
There is nothing to wait for, so the process won't sleep.

	Hi guys,

	 

	I wondered whether timer:sleep(0) would cause a process to sleep
or it will just pass it ?

	For instance if I have spawned process with fun();

	 

	fun()->

	            bar(),

	            baz(),

	            timer:sleep(0),

	            bar().

	Would the process sleep after baz(), or not ?

	 

	10x,

	 

	yani
