* Removed from build. Didn't remove akka-stm directory, contains transactors also.
* Replaced usage of org.multiverse.api.latches.StandardLatch in some tests with testkit.TestLatch
* Aligned the Java and Scala documentation for Actors
* Implemented hotswap samples in Java, and documented in same way as Scala docs
* Improved Actors (Scala) docs
* Fixed wrong preRestart and postRestart in UntypedActor
* Changed name of Dispatchers.fromConfig to newFromConfig and made it Java friendly
* Added ActorRef.ask with Timeout parameter in addition to the timeoutMillis
* Added JavaActorContext, UntypedActor.getContext
* implicit val context in Actor needs to be implicit to support forward,
it would be nice if it wasn't implicit because now I can't override context
in UntypedActor
* Removed implicit def system in Actor
* Removed implicit def defaultTimeout in Actor
* Removed receiveTimeout, children, dispatcher, become, unbecome, watch,
unwatch in Actor
* Removed corresponding as above from UntypedActor
* Removed implicit from dispatcher in ActorSystem
* Removed implicit def timeout in TypedActor
* Changed receiveTimeout to use Duration (in api)
* Changed many tests and samples to match new api
* Fixed obvious
* Created tickets for several, #1408, #1409, #1410, #1412, #1415, 1416, #1418
* Moved LoggingReceive from akka.actor to akka.event
* Touched several of the FIXME to make them visible in code review
* All default values removed from code and loaded from akka-actor-reference.conf, located in src/main/resources (included in jar)
* Default test configuration included in AkkaSpec instead of using akka.test.conf, avoids problems when running test (in IDE) and forgetting to use -Dakka.mode=test.
* System.properties used first, if availble
* Next step will be to split akka-actor-reference.conf in separate -reference for each module
- create ActorSystemImpl trait to make ActorSystem fully abstract
- add Java API for constructing (ActorSystem.create(...))
- only go through factory methods because .start() has become necessary
- rename all user-facing occurrences of “app” to “system” (Actor trait
and TestKit/AkkaSpec)
- pass ActorSystemImpl to ActorRefs upon creation, which means that
actorOf() and friends need such an argument, which must be provided to
the ActorRefProvider by the ActorRefFactory implementation
