* 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
* 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
BalancingDispatcherModelSpec is currently broken, leaves count==1 in
wavesOfActors test, committed anyway in order to check out where it
broke before this merge
most tests passing, everything compiling, but docs not updated and nasty
thread-leak preventing me from running the whole test-suite (which is
the reason for this commit: I want to chase down that one first).
- the app.mainbus is classified by Class[_] (currently lookup, will
possibly change to sub-class-aware) and accepts AnyRef messages
- LoggingBus handles akka.event-handlers from config specially:
+ start them as system services, supervised by SystemGuardian
+ keep their subscriptions in sync when logLevel_= is called
+ send them InitializeLogger(bus) message before subscribing them (so
they can register for extras like Mute/UnMute)
- two-phased start-up: first phase with actor-less stdout logging, then
subscription of config loggers, then remove stdout logger (logLevels
configurable separately)
- MainBusReaper watches registered receivers and unsubscribes them upon
death (started in phase 2)
- logger factory on Logging object, needs app/bus and log source;
default instance in app.log
