Question

Can someone explain the structure of a Pid in Erlang?

Pids looks like this : , e.g. <0.30.0> , but i would like to kno

Answer 1

The PID refers to a process and a node table. So you can only send a message directly to a PID if it is known in the node from which you do the call.

It is possible that this will work if the node you do the call from already knows about the node on which the process is running.
