EOF terminates script

[Eric Jang]

Hello,

Trying to run the following code (against $ nc -l 5000):

sock = connect("localhost", 5000)

function readcb(s::Base.AsyncStream, nreadable::Int)

input = takebuf_string(s.buffer)

ast = parse(input)

put(Base.repl_channel, (ast,1))

println(input)

return false

end

start_reading(sock, readcb)

This works when I paste it in the interactive shell, but running ./julia myscript.jl causes it to terminate. How do I persist the script?

Thanks

Is repl_channel defined when you're not running inside of the REPL?

I usually do fetch(RemoteRef()) in this case. However, seeing your use case, have a look at https://github.com/loladiro/REPL.jl and in particular the start_repl_server function.
