* 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
* 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
* Split config reference to one for each module/extension.
* Adjusted signature of registerExtension to avoid race of extension init
* Moved Duration.dilated to testkit
* TestKitExtension
* RemoteExtension
* SerializationExtension
* Durable mailboxes extensions
* Fixed broken serialization bindings and added test
* Updated configuration documentation
* System properties akka.remote.hostname akka.remote.port replaced with akka.remote.server.hostname and akka.remote.server.port
* Adjustments of ActorSystem initialization. Still don't like the two-phase constructor/init flow. Very fragile for changes.
Review fixes. SerializationExtension
* 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
