Sending, receiving, and closing

The reflect.Value type offers a few methods that have to be used exclusively with channels, Send and Recv for sending and receiving, and Close for closing channels. Let's take a look at a sample use case of these functions and methods:

func main() {
    t := reflect.ChanOf(reflect.BothDir, reflect.TypeOf(""))
    v := reflect.MakeChan(t, 0)
    go func() {
        for i := 0; i < 10; i++ {
            v.Send(reflect.ValueOf(fmt.Sprintf("msg-%d", i)))
        }
        v.Close()
    }()
    for msg, ok := v.Recv(); ok; msg, ok = v.Recv() {
        fmt.Println(msg)
    }
}
