Type receive

object --+
         |
        receive


The receive decorator can be used to decorate functions and static methods (NOT methods of class instances) that should receive messages of a given type. In the case of static methods, be sure to put the staticmethod decorator first.

When a message of the given type is received, the function will be called with (srcNodeId, message type, attached object) as the arguments to it.
