* Receive class that wraps PartialFunction, to avoid
scary scala types
* move AbstractActorContext to AbstractActor.ActorContext
* converting docs, many, many UntypedActor
* removing UntypedActor docs
* add unit test for ReceiveBuilder
* MiMa filters
* consistent use of getContext(), self(), sender()
* rename cross references
* migration guide
* skip samples for now
* improve match type safetyi, add matchUnchecked
* the `? extends P` caused code like this to compile:
`match(String.class, (Integer i) -> {})`
* added matchUnchecked, since it can still be useful (um, convenient)
to be able to do:
`matchUnchecked(List.class, (List<String> list) -> {})`
* eleminate some scala.Option
* preRestart
* findChild
* ActorIdentity.getActorRef
* new trait ByteBufferSerializer with fromBinary and toBinary
methods that takes ByteBuffer, this can be mixed in to
existing serializer without breaking compatibility
* implement the ByteBufferSerializer in the ByteArraySerializer
* minor adjustment of the class manifest cache
Unless the message is in akka.* or the configuration setting 'akka.actor.warn-about-java-serializer-usage'
is disabled a warning is logged for each class that the Java serializer is choosen for.
* because it is not referentially transparent; normally we reserved parens for
side-effecting code but given how people thoughtlessly close over it we revised
that that decision for sender
* caller can still omit parens
- rewrite deprecated usages to their recommended counterparts
- TestActorRef now verifies mailbox requirements
- CallingThreadMailbox now exposes proper messageQueue type for
inspection
- Moved system messages to their own package.
- All queueing operations are now hidden behind a SystemMessageList value class
- Introduced dual SystemMessageList types to encode the ordering in the type.
- Protects against accidentally missed reverse calls or accidentally reversed lists
- Makes ordering expectations by fields/parameters explicit
- Fixed serialization tests
- Fixes to logging in HierarchyStressSpec
* Sending to a previous incarnation of an actor shall fail,
to make remote actors work the same way as local ones (in
the sense that after Terminated() the ref is not working anymore)
* Changed equality of ActorRef to take the uid into account
* Parse uid fragment in RelativeActorPath and ActorPathExtractor
* Handle uid in getChild and in RemoteSystemDaemon
* Use toSerializationFormat and toSerializationFormatWithAddress
in serialization
* Replaced var uid in ActorCell and ChildRestartStats with
constructor parameters (path)
* Create the uid in one single place, in makeChild in parent
* Handle ActorRef with and without uid in DeathWatch
* Optimize ActorPath.toString and friends
* Update documentation and migration guide
* Make SystemMessage extend Serializable to avoid ambiguity when
setting serialization-bindings.
* Set serialVersionUID in SystemMessages and create tests to
ensure binary formats remain unchanged.
* Add tests for reference.conf's serialization settings.
* Make some existing serialization tests more robust.
Removed boilerplate from serialization tests
Use actual reference.conf; tidy up
Make serialization compatible
- it was always intended that tell() (and sendSystemMessage()) shall not
throw any exceptions
- this is implemented by swallowing in ActorCell
(suspend/resume/restart/stop/!/sendSystemMessage) and in
RemoteActorRef (!/sendSystemMessage)
- current implementation uses a normal method, which adds overhead but
keeps the code in one place (ActorCell.catchingSend); this is a great
opportunity for making use of macros
