Class BroadcastPool

java.lang.Object

akka.routing.BroadcastPool

All Implemented Interfaces:

Pool, PoolOverrideUnsetConfig<BroadcastPool>, RouterConfig, java.io.Serializable, scala.Equals, scala.Product

public final class BroadcastPool
extends java.lang.Object
implements Pool, PoolOverrideUnsetConfig<BroadcastPool>, scala.Product, scala.Serializable

A router pool that broadcasts a message to all its routees.

The configuration parameter trumps the constructor arguments. This means that if you provide nrOfInstances during instantiation they will be ignored if the router is defined in the configuration file for the actor being used.

Supervision Setup

Any routees that are created by a router will be created as the router's children. The router is therefore also the children's supervisor.

The supervision strategy of the router actor can be configured with withSupervisorStrategy(akka.actor.SupervisorStrategy). If no strategy is provided, routers default to a strategy of &ldquo;always escalate&rdquo;. This means that errors are passed up to the router's supervisor for handling.

The router's supervisor will treat the error as an error with the router itself. Therefore a directive to stop or restart will cause the router itself to stop or restart. The router, in turn, will cause its children to stop and restart.

param: nrOfInstances initial number of routees in the pool

param: resizer optional resizer that dynamically adjust the pool size

param: supervisorStrategy strategy for supervising the routees, see 'Supervision Setup'

param: routerDispatcher dispatcher to use for the router head actor, which handles supervision, death watch and router management messages

BroadcastPool

public BroadcastPool(com.typesafe.config.Config config)

BroadcastPool

public BroadcastPool(int nr)

Java API

Parameters:

nr - initial number of routees in the pool

Method Detail

routingLogicController

public static scala.Option<Props> routingLogicController(RoutingLogic routingLogic)

isManagementMessage

public static boolean isManagementMessage(java.lang.Object msg)

                               ActorContext context)

enrichWithPoolDispatcher

public static Props enrichWithPoolDispatcher(Props routeeProps,

public abstract static boolean equals(java.lang.Object that)

productElement

public abstract static java.lang.Object productElement(int n)

productArity

public abstract static int productArity()

productIterator

public static scala.collection.Iterator<java.lang.Object> productIterator()

productPrefix

public static java.lang.String productPrefix()

nrOfInstances

public int nrOfInstances()

Specified by:

nrOfInstances in interface Pool

resizer

public scala.Option<Resizer> resizer()

Description copied from interface: Pool

Pool with dynamically resizable number of routees return the Resizer to use. The resizer is invoked once when the router is created, before any messages can be sent to it. Resize is also triggered when messages are sent to the routees, and the resizer is invoked asynchronously, i.e. not necessarily before the message has been sent.

Specified by:

resizer in interface Pool

Returns:

(undocumented)

supervisorStrategy

public SupervisorStrategy supervisorStrategy()

Description copied from interface: Pool

SupervisorStrategy for the head actor, i.e. for supervising the routees of the pool.

Specified by:

Specified by:

routerDispatcher in interface RouterConfig

Description copied from interface: Pool

Use a dedicated dispatcher for the routees of the pool. The dispatcher is defined in 'pool-dispatcher' configuration property in the deployment section of the router.

Specified by:

usePoolDispatcher in interface Pool

Returns:

(undocumented)

createRouter

(undocumented)

withSupervisorStrategy

public BroadcastPool withSupervisorStrategy(SupervisorStrategy strategy)

Setting the supervisor strategy to be used for the &ldquo;head&rdquo; Router actor.
