# createNode

`fun createNode(manuallyPumped: Boolean): <ERROR CLASS><Handle, MessagingServiceBuilder<InMemoryMessaging>>`

Creates a node and returns the new object that identifies its location on the network to senders, and the InMemoryMessaging that the recipient/in-memory node uses to receive messages and send messages itself.

If manuallyPumped is set to true, then you are expected to call the InMemoryMessaging.pump method on the InMemoryMessaging in order to cause the delivery of a single message, which will occur on the thread of the caller. If set to false then this class will set up a background thread to deliver messages asynchronously, if the handler specifies no executor.
