Just drew a diagram to help me understand some of the complications of a piece of code I'm trying to design (constructing SubReceiverSets from IpcReceiverSets, for anyone who has been following along in my blog). Thank goodness for graphviz - so much neater than my hand-drawn attempt.
![Some examples of how subreceivers, with the same or distinct underlying IpcChannels, may be grouped into SubReceiverSets.
I don't know if the following is helpful to partially sighted readers, but I include it anyway.
digraph IpcChannelMultiplexingReceiverSets {
rankdir=LR;
center=1;
nodesep=0.3;
compound=true;
node [shape=box][width=1.8][fontname="Courier-Bold"];
edge [splines=true][fontname="Courier"];
edge [color=black][style=dotted];
