ActorRefProvider Members

The ActorRefProvider type exposes the following members.

Methods


  Name Description
Public method ActorOf
Actor factory with create-only semantics: will create an actor as described by props with the given supervisor and path (may be different in case of remote supervision). If systemService is true, deployment is bypassed (local-only). If a value fordeploy is passed in, it should be regarded as taking precedence over the nominally applicable settings, but it should be overridable from external configuration; the lookup of the latter can be suppressed by setting "lookupDeploy" to "false".
Public method Equals(System.Object)
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected method Finalize
Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetExternalAddressFor
Obtain the address which is to be used within sender references when sending to the given other address or none if the other address cannot be reached from this system (i.e. no means of communication known; no attempt is made to verify actual reachability).
Public method GetHashCode
Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public method Init
Initialization of an ActorRefProvider happens in two steps: first construction of the object with settings, eventStream, etc. and then—when the ActorSystem is constructed—the second phase during which actors may be created (e.g. the guardians).
Protected method MemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public method RegisterTempActor
Registers an actorRef at a path returned by TempPath()()()(); do NOT pass in any other path.
Public method ResolveActorRef(String)
Get the actor reference for a specified path. If no such actor exists, it will be (equivalent to) a dead letter reference.
Public method ResolveActorRef(ActorPath)
Get the actor reference for a specified path. If no such actor exists, it will be (equivalent to) a dead letter reference.
Public method RootGuardianAt
Reference to the supervisor of guardian and systemGuardian at the specified address; this is exposed so that the ActorRefFactory can use it as lookupRoot, i.e. for anchoring absolute actor selections.
Public method TempPath
Generates and returns a unique actor path below "/temp".
Public method ToString
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public method UnregisterTempActor
Unregister a temporary actor (i.e. obtained from TempPath()()()()); do NOT pass in any other path.

Properties


  Name Description
Public property DeadLetters
Gets the dead letters.
Public property DefaultAddress
Gets the external address of the default transport.
Public property Deployer
Gets the deployer.
Public property Guardian
Gets the supervisor used for all top-level user actors.
Public property RootGuardian
Reference to the supervisor of guardian and systemGuardian; this is exposed so that the ActorSystemImpl can use it as lookupRoot, i.e. for anchoring absolute actor look-ups.
Public property RootPath
Gets the root path for all actors within this actor system, not including any remote address information.
Public property Settings
Gets the settings.
Public property SystemGuardian
Gets the supervisor used for all top-level system actors.
Public property TempContainer
Returns the actor reference representing the "/temp" path.
Public property TerminationTask
This Future is completed upon termination of this ActorRefProvider, which is usually initiated by stopping the guardian via Stop(ActorRef).
