Props

case class Props(creator: () ⇒ Actor = Props.defaultCreator, dispatcher: String = ..., routerConfig: RouterConfig = Props.defaultRoutedProps, deploy: Deploy = Props.defaultDeploy) extends Product with Serializable

Props is a ActorRef configuration object, that is immutable, so it is thread safe and fully sharable. Used when creating new actors through; ActorSystem.actorOf and ActorContext.actorOf.

In case of providing code which creates the actual Actor instance, that must not return the same instance multiple times.

Examples on Scala API:

val props = Props[MyActor]
val props = Props(new MyActor)
val props = Props(
  creator = ..,
  dispatcher = ..,
  routerConfig = ..
)
val props = Props().withCreator(new MyActor)
val props = Props[MyActor].withRouter(RoundRobinRouter(..))

Examples on Java API:

Props props = new Props();
Props props = new Props(MyActor.class);
Props props = new Props(new UntypedActorFactory() {
  public UntypedActor create() {
    return new MyActor();
  }
});
Props props = new Props().withCreator(new UntypedActorFactory() { ... });
Props props = new Props(MyActor.class).withRouter(new RoundRobinRouter(..));
