- replace TreeMap with custom ChildrenContainer, which has three
implementations: empty, normal and “terminating” (i.e. waiting for
some child to terminate)
- split recreate() in the same way as terminate(), so that there is a
phase during which the suspended actor waits for termination of all
children which were stopped in preRestart
- do not null out “actor” in ActorCell during restart, because we do
need the supervisionStrategy and nulling it out does not buy us much
in this case anyway
- provide new ActorContext.suspendForChildTermination(), which enters
limbo for as long there are outstanding termination requests; this
enables code which is very similar to previously (half-working) setups
with “synchronous” context.stop(child)
docs are still missing, plus a little polishing here and there; oh, and
before I forget: ActorCell NOW is 64 bytes again ;-)
- remove ?(msg, timeout), should always use ?(msg)(timeout) because of
Scala’s only Martin-acknowledged design flaw of being able to pass
tuples into single-arg methods without adding another pair of parens
- put a provider into all actor refs, because they all are created by
and associated with one
- treat all terminated refs equally: tell(msg) and return broken promise
- move package objects into their respective package.scala file in the
right directories
- make implicit conversion as well as explicit facility available under
the same name akka.patterns.ask for easy import
- revert the logic to produce the Promise for the PromiseActorRef within
the ActorRefProvider; supporting wrapping of external Promises does
not seem to justify doing needless extra allocations in case of
failure
- add scaladocs
- factor out “def provider” into trait ActorRefWithProvider, as it
didn’t feel right attaching this information “by exception” to
MinimalActorRef
- it is customary to use class name for categorizing logs, hence we
should support it; class is taken from logSource.getClass
- update SLF4J module to use logClass as category and set logSource in
MDC "akkaSource"
- add docs
* Documentation of migration kit
* Documentation of some of the changes
* akka-actor-migration module containing GlobalActorSystem, OldXxx classes and some implicit conversions
* Tried migration of WebWords sample
* Tried migration of akka-samples/async-workers
* Tried migration of akka-samples-trading
