This is mainly intended to keep the git history as neat as possible.
No actual conversion yet, so now both the rst and the paradox docs
are broken, which will be fixed in the next commits.
- All Map types are now generic in their key: ORMap, ORMultiMap, LWWMap,
PNCounterMap
- test for binary compatibility with previous version for serialization
- entries are sorted for deterministic SHA-1 on same value
* Provide shorter aliases for the ActorRefProviders #20649
* Use the new actorefprovider aliases throughout code and docs
* Cleaner alias replacement logic
Previously know as [patriknw/akka-data-replication](https://github.com/patriknw/akka-data-replication),
which was originally inspired by [jboner/akka-crdt](https://github.com/jboner/akka-crdt).
The functionality is very similar to akka-data-replication 0.11.
Here is a list of the most important changes:
* The package name changed to `akka.cluster.ddata`
* The extension was renamed to `DistributedData`
* The keys changed from strings to classes with unique identifiers and type information of the data values,
e.g. `ORSetKey[Int]("set2")`
* The optional read consistency parameter was removed from the `Update` message. If you need to read from
other replicas before performing the update you have to first send a `Get` message and then continue with
the ``Update`` when the ``GetSuccess`` is received.
* `BigInt` is used in `GCounter` and `PNCounter` instead of `Long`
* Improvements of java api
* Better documentation
