* 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
* Separate routing logic, to be usable stand alone, e.g. in actors
* Simplify RouterConfig, only a factory
* Move reading of config from Deployer to the RouterConfig
* Distiction between Pool and Group router types
* Remove usage of actorFor, use ActorSelection
* Management messages to add and remove routees
* Simplify the internals of RoutedActorCell & co
* Move resize specific code to separate RoutedActorCell subclass
* Change resizer api to only return capacity change
* Resizer only allowed together with Pool
* Re-implement all routers, and keep old api during deprecation phase
* Replace ClusterRouterConfig, deprecation
* Rewrite documentation
* Migration guide
* Also includes related ticket:
+act #3087 Create nicer Props factories for RouterConfig
- add “mailbox-requirement” key to dispatcher section
- split out mailbox section, add akka.actor.default-mailbox
- rewrite findMarker method and use it for Props.create() and getting
the required mailbox of an actor
- add ProducesMessageQueue trait for MailboxType so that requirements
can be checked before trying to create the actor for real
- verify actor as well as dispatcher requirements for message queue
before creation, even in remote-deployed case
- change MessageDispatcher constructor to take a Configurator, add that
to migration guide
* Deprecate all actorFor methods
* resolveActorRef in provider
* Identify auto receive message
* Support ActorPath in actorSelection
* Support remote actor selections
* Additional tests of actor selection
* Update tests (keep most actorFor tests)
* Update samples to use actorSelection
* Updates to documentation
* Migration guide, including motivation
The idea is to filter the sources, replacing @<var>@ occurrences with
the mapping for <var> (which is currently hard-coded). @@ -> @. In order
to make this work, I had to move the doc sources one directory down
(into akka-docs/rst) so that the filtered result could be in a sibling
directory so that relative links (to _sphinx plugins or real code) would
continue to work.
While I was at it I also changed it so that WARNINGs and ERRORs are not
swallowed into the debug dump anymore but printed at [warn] level
(minimum).
One piece of fallout is that the (online) html build is now run after
the normal one, not in parallel.
