Actor path alias or symbolic link?
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
As in some real file-systems you might think of a “path alias” or “symbolic link” for an actor,
|
||||
i.e. one actor may be reachable using more than one path.
|
||||
However, you should note that actor hierarchy is different from file system hierarchy.
|
||||
You cannot freely create actor paths like symbolic links to refer to arbitrary actors.
|
||||
As described in the above logical and physical actor path sections,
|
||||
an actor path must be either logical path which represents supervision hierarchy, or
|
||||
physical path which represents actor deployment.
