For with_daemons: the return value of expr.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # interactive()
daemons(1, dispatcher = FALSE, .compute = "cpu")
daemons(1, dispatcher = FALSE, .compute = "gpu")

with_daemons("cpu", {
  s1 <- status()
  m1 <- mirai(Sys.getpid())
})

with_daemons("gpu", {
  s2 <- status()
  m2 <- mirai(Sys.getpid())
  m3 <- mirai(Sys.getpid(), .compute = "cpu")
  local_daemons("cpu")
  m4 <- mirai(Sys.getpid())
})

s1$daemons
m1[]

s2$daemons
m2[] # different to m1

m3[] # same as m1
m4[] # same as m1

with_daemons("cpu", daemons(0))
with_daemons("gpu", daemons(0))
