send
abstract val send: (message: Any?, sendHandle: Any?, options: ProcessSendOptions?, callback: (JsError?) -> Unit?) -> Boolean?(source)
If Node.js is spawned with an IPC channel, the process.send()
method can be used to send messages to the parent process. Messages will be received as a 'message'
event on the parent's ChildProcess
object.
