How do you structure your API with channels? A common example from docs is

fun CoroutineScope.foo(): ReceiveChannel<Int> = produce {}

What if it's in a different class? Then the usage is ... strange? 🙂

class Bar{
fun CoroutineScope.foo(): ReceiveChannel<Int> = produce {}
}

.... coroutine scope ....
bar().run {
   foo() ??
}

[gildor]

also with(bar()) { foo() }

[ghedeon]

oh, so you actually use with sometimes, @gildor, got ya)

[gildor]

Yes, but only for nested scopes of extension functions, like in this case

[streetsofboston]

Any extension lambda (lambda with a 'this' receiver) would work.

bar.foo(scope) might be preferable
