```val channel = ...

for (message in channel) { <-------
	//
}

while (true) {
	val message = channel.receive() <-------
}```
What exactly is the `for ... channel` syntax sugar for? is it the while loop as I wrote it?
I'm looking at sources of the iterator `private class Itr<E>(@JvmField val channel: AbstractChannel<E>) : ChannelIterator<E> {`

and in it's `next` implementation, there is no `receive` .. so idk?

(the context is ktor websockets; and there's a `receiveDeserialied` helper function I'd like to use)

Well it also exits cleanly when the channel is closed which your `while` example doesn't have

what exactly do I need to do then? since the sources are kinda cryptic

or would you rather ditch the `receiveDeserialized`, its just json parsing bolted on top the text frame

I'm on mobile so not sure off the top of my head what the equivalent would be. You could while true, select, and then have onReceive and onClose clauses?
