Hi Sven,

 

Thanks for the pointer! I will try to play around with MVar.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Dennis

I can see two problems in your code:

* forkIO creates "daemon threads", so the program terminates immediately.

* Chan is an unbounded channel, so you won't get a "ping pong", which
is probably what you expected. MVar is your friend here.

See http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/base/Control.Concurrent.html

Cheers,
S.
