ActorRef

trait ActorRef extends ActorRefShared with ForwardableChannel with ReplyChannel[Any] with Comparable[ActorRef]

ActorRef is an immutable and serializable handle to an Actor.

Create an ActorRef for an Actor by using the factory method on the Actor object.

Here is an example on how to create an actor with a default constructor.

  import Actor._

  val actor = actorOf[MyActor]
  actor.start()
  actor ! message
  actor.stop()

You can also create and start actors like this:

  val actor = actorOf[MyActor].start()

Here is an example on how to create an actor with a non-default constructor.

  import Actor._

  val actor = actorOf(new MyActor(...))
  actor.start()
  actor ! message
  actor.stop()

    Sends a message asynchronously returns a future holding the eventual reply message.

    NOTE: Use this method with care. In most cases it is better to use 'tell' together with the 'getContext().getSender()' to implement request/response message exchanges.

    If you are sending messages using sendRequestReplyFuture then you have to use getContext().reply(..) to send a reply message to the original sender. If not then the sender will block until the timeout expires.
