Std.Process.begin

1 declaration

fn

begin: &Std.Process.Launch -> Result[Std.Process.Started, Str]

This is a callable function.

What it does

Start a launch and answer without waiting for it.

A variable name that is empty or holds = is refused before anything

starts, because the operating system would split or drop it silently.

Read the signature

  • The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
  • Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
  • & borrows a value for this call instead of moving or copying it.
  • Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
  • Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
