* 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
- Moved system messages to their own package.
- All queueing operations are now hidden behind a SystemMessageList value class
- Introduced dual SystemMessageList types to encode the ordering in the type.
- Protects against accidentally missed reverse calls or accidentally reversed lists
- Makes ordering expectations by fields/parameters explicit
- Fixed serialization tests
- Fixes to logging in HierarchyStressSpec
* Sending to a previous incarnation of an actor shall fail,
to make remote actors work the same way as local ones (in
the sense that after Terminated() the ref is not working anymore)
* Changed equality of ActorRef to take the uid into account
* Parse uid fragment in RelativeActorPath and ActorPathExtractor
* Handle uid in getChild and in RemoteSystemDaemon
* Use toSerializationFormat and toSerializationFormatWithAddress
in serialization
* Replaced var uid in ActorCell and ChildRestartStats with
constructor parameters (path)
* Create the uid in one single place, in makeChild in parent
* Handle ActorRef with and without uid in DeathWatch
* Optimize ActorPath.toString and friends
* Update documentation and migration guide
* Rename config akka.event-handlers to akka.loggers
* Rename config akka.event-handler-startup-timeout to
akka.logger-startup-timeout
* Rename JulEventHandler to JavaLogger
* Rename Slf4jEventHandler to Slf4jLogger
* Change all places in tests and docs
* Deprecation, old still works, but with warnings
* Migration guide
* Test for the deprecated event-handler config
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.
