# ReceivePort constructor

ReceivePort()

Opens a long-lived port for receiving messages.

A ReceivePort is a non-broadcast stream. This means that it buffers incoming messages until a listener is registered. Only one listener can receive messages. See Stream.asBroadcastStream for transforming the port to a broadcast stream.

A receive port is closed by canceling its subscription.

## Implementation

    external factory ReceivePort();
