* Changed signatures and constructor of MessageDispatcherConfigurator
* Changed Dispatchers.lookup, keep configurators instead of dispatchers
* Removed most of the Dispatchers.newX methods, newDispatcher is still there because of priority mailbox
* How should we make it easy to configure priority mailbox?
* Changed tons tests
* Documentation and ScalaDoc is not updated yet
* Some tests in ActorModelSpec are temporary ignored due to failure
* 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
- replace ActorRef.stop() by ActorRefFactory.stop(child) everywhere
- ActorCell “optimizes” this to remove the child from its childrenRefs
in order to allow immediate recycling of the name
- the lost soul must have a place, for which the Locker has been
created, where Davy Jones will happily rebind the soul to his ship
(i.e. set “parent” to the locker to avoid mem leak) and periodically
revisit it (.stop(), in case of that being lost in comm failure,
similar .watch() to re-check liveness)
- was used only in BalancingDispatcherSpec (was dirty, fixed dirty) and
TestActorRef
- fixing the latter involved opening up ActorCell slightly for allowing
new AutoReceivedMessage types (that trait is now not sealed anymore)
- TestActorRef then checks underlying.actor and retrieves it using a
message-based request if it is still null
- create RemoteActorRef in actorFor
- simplify send/receive because Futures/Exceptions do not go over the
wire anymore
- add RemoteCommunicationSpec which uses two ActorSystems communicating
in the same JVM via TCP socket
- AkkaSpecSpec failed with nothing in the locker, but only on Jenkins
- cause: Davy Jones doesn’t get a chance to run because nobody actually
waits for his processing
- thus, give him permission to leave this world and have him confirm
that
* 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!
- it was telling all children to stop(), then waited for the
ChildTerminated messages and finally terminated itself
- this worked fine, except when the stop came from the supervisor, i.e.
the recipient was suspended and did not process the ChildTerminated
- so, as the mirror of Supervise() that it is, I changed
ChildTerminated() to be a system message and instead of stopping
processing normal messages by checking the stopping flag, just suspend
the actor while awaiting the ChildTerminated's to flow in.
- 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
* Dispatchers need Scheduler to be able to shutdown themselves. Stop Scheduler after dispatchers.
* Changed CallingThreadDispatcher global object to Extension, since it holds map of references to mailboxes. Will be GC:ed when system is GC:ed.
* Made testActor lazy, since it is not used in all tests, and it creates CallingThreadDispatcher.
* Activated some java tests that were not running
* Many tests were not stopping created ActorSystems. VERY IMPORTANT TO STOP ActorSystem in tests. Use AkkaSpec as much as possible.
* Used profiler to verify (and find) dangling ActorSystemImpl and threads from dispatchers.
* FutureSpec creates ForkJoinPool threads that are not cleared, but number of threads don't grow so it's not a problem.
- ActorCell will pre-fill the childrenRefs with the reserved name in
order to detect duplicates
- also clean up some test outputs (some ActorSystems forgot to fall back
to testConf so they did not get the TestEventListener anymore)
- fix race in start-up of LoggingReceiveSpec by ignoring messages from
testActor start (never was slow enough on my machine to trigger =>
thank you Jenkins, again!)
- represent actors in logging only by their path, i.e. remote Actor[...]
decoration
- fix automatic naming of AkkaSpec ActorSystems after the true class
name of the test spec
* 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
