Class TailChoppingPool

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Pool, PoolOverrideUnsetConfig<TailChoppingPool>, RouterConfig, java.io.Serializable, scala.Equals, scala.Product
    public final class TailChoppingPool
extends java.lang.Object
implements Pool, PoolOverrideUnsetConfig<TailChoppingPool>, scala.Product, java.io.Serializable
    A router pool with retry logic, intended for cases where a return message is expected in response to a message sent to the routee. As each message is sent to the routing pool, the routees are randomly ordered. The message is sent to the first routee. If no response is received before the interval has passed, the same message is sent to the next routee. This process repeats until either a response is received from some routee, the routees in the pool are exhausted, or the within duration has passed since the first send. If no routee sends a response in time, a Status.Failure wrapping a AskTimeoutException is sent to the sender.

    Refer to TailChoppingRoutingLogic for comments regarding the goal of this routing algorithm.

    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: within expecting at least one reply within this duration, otherwise it will reply with AskTimeoutException in a Status.Failure

    param: interval duration after which the message will be sent to the next routee

    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
