I want to receive events from the erlang module and for that execute the following commands [root@fs1 xml]# erl -sname test -setcookie ClueCon Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.2.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:2:2] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] Eshell V6.2.1 (abort with ^G) (test@fs1)1> {foo, fs1@fs1} ! {event, 'CHANNEL_CREATE'}, receive Y -> Y after 1000 -> timeout end. ok (test@fs1)2> And second way [root@fs1 xml]# erl -sname test -setcookie ClueCon Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.2.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:2:2] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] Eshell V6.2.1 (abort with ^G) (test@fs1)1> {foo, fs1@fs1} ! {event, 'ALL'}. {event,'ALL'} (test@fs1)2> receive Y -> Y after 1000 -> timeout end. ok (test@fs1)3> And I can not get events. What am I doing wrong?
