* 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
- uncovered nasty endless loop bug wrt. dead letters and a dead listener
- fixing that bug removed the MainBusReaper (sigh)
- also fix compilation of tutorial-first, but that REALLY needs to be
changed not to create RoutedActorRef using new!
- look-up of all actor paths in the system, even “synthetic” ones like
“/temp”
- look-up by full URI (akka://bla/...), absolute or relative path
- look-up by ActorPath
- look-up by path elements
- look-up relative to context where applicable, supporting ".."
- proper management of AskActorRef
Have a look at ActorLookupSpec to see what it can do.
- IAR is subclass of AR and SAR
- all concrete ARs implement IAR
- move sendSystemMessage to IAR
all in preparation for unifying the ActorPath look-up for local&remote
actor refs
- represent it by SerializedActorRef(path), i.e. only a “tagged” string
- remove serialize/deserialize from ActorRefProvider interface
- adapt test since deadLetters is returned when nothing found instead of
exception
- multi-jvm tests are still broken, but that is due to look-up of remote
actors, which I have just not done yet
* 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
- duplicate name detection done within ActorCell/ActorSystem (i.e. at
parent level)
- no caching needed for local look-ups, might re-introduce cache in
remote layer
- implement suitable equals/hashCode on ActorPaths
- fix some (unintended => buggy) name reuses which previously silently
returned a different actor
- serialization & EventStreamSpec still failing, need to commit to merge
in other stuff on which the future fixes will depend
* Config lib 4f3a91f
* All reference files named reference.conf, all will be loaded
* Usage of ConfigFactor.load as default way
* Extensions use same config as ActorSystem.settings.config
