static <T> java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<T>	after(scala.concurrent.duration.FiniteDuration duration, Scheduler scheduler, scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext context, java.util.concurrent.Callable<java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<T>> value) Returns a CompletionStage that will be completed with the success or failure of the provided Callable after the specified duration.
static <T> java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<T>	after(scala.concurrent.duration.FiniteDuration duration, Scheduler scheduler, scala.concurrent.ExecutionContext context, java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<T> value) Returns a CompletionStage that will be completed with the success or failure of the provided value after the specified duration.
static java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<java.lang.Object>	ask(ActorRef actor, Function<ActorRef,java.lang.Object> messageFactory, long timeoutMillis) A variation of ask which allows to implement "replyTo" pattern by including sender reference in message.

static java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<java.lang.Object>	ask(ActorRef actor, java.lang.Object message, long timeoutMillis) Java API for akka.pattern.ask: Sends a message asynchronously and returns a CompletionStage holding the eventual reply message; this means that the target actor needs to send the result to the sender reference provided.

Method Detail

ask

public static java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<java.lang.Object> ask(ActorRef actor,
                                                                         java.lang.Object message,
                                                                         Timeout timeout)

Java API for akka.pattern.ask: Sends a message asynchronously and returns a CompletionStage holding the eventual reply message; this means that the target actor needs to send the result to the sender reference provided. The CompletionStage will be completed with an AskTimeoutException after the given timeout has expired; this is independent from any timeout applied while awaiting a result for this future (i.e. in Await.result(..., timeout)).

Warning: When using future callbacks, inside actors you need to carefully avoid closing over the containing actor’s object, i.e. do not call methods or access mutable state on the enclosing actor from within the callback. This would break the actor encapsulation and may introduce synchronization bugs and race conditions because the callback will be scheduled concurrently to the enclosing actor. Unfortunately there is not yet a way to detect these illegal accesses at compile time.

Recommended usage:

   final CompletionStage<Object> f = Patterns.ask(worker, request, timeout);
   f.onSuccess(new Procedure<Object>() {
     public void apply(Object o) {
       nextActor.tell(new EnrichedResult(request, o));
     }
   });
 

Parameters:

actor - (undocumented)

message - (undocumented)

timeout - (undocumented)

pipe

Register an onComplete callback on this CompletionStage to send the result to the given ActorRef or ActorSelection. Returns the original CompletionStage to allow method chaining. If the future was completed with failure it is sent as a Status.Failure to the recipient.

Recommended usage example:

   final CompletionStage<Object> f = Patterns.ask(worker, request, timeout);
   // apply some transformation (i.e. enrich with request info)
   final CompletionStage<Object> transformed = f.map(new akka.japi.Function<Object, Object>() { ... });
   // send it on to the next stage
   Patterns.pipe(transformed).to(nextActor);
 

Parameters:

future - (undocumented)

context - (undocumented)

Returns:

(undocumented)

gracefulStop

public static java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<java.lang.Boolean> gracefulStop(ActorRef target,
                                                                                   scala.concurrent.duration.FiniteDuration timeout)

Returns a CompletionStage that will be completed with success (value true) when existing messages of the target actor has been processed and the actor has been terminated.

Useful when you need to wait for termination or compose ordered termination of several actors.

If the target actor isn't terminated within the timeout the CompletionStage is completed with failure AskTimeoutException.

Parameters:

target - (undocumented)

timeout - (undocumented)

Returns:

(undocumented)

gracefulStop

public static java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<java.lang.Boolean> gracefulStop(ActorRef target,
                                                                                   scala.concurrent.duration.FiniteDuration timeout,
                                                                                   java.lang.Object stopMessage)

Returns a CompletionStage that will be completed with success (value true) when existing messages of the target actor has been processed and the actor has been terminated.

Useful when you need to wait for termination or compose ordered termination of several actors.

If you want to invoke specialized stopping logic on your target actor instead of PoisonPill, you can pass your stop command as stopMessage parameter

If the target actor isn't terminated within the timeout the CompletionStage is completed with failure AskTimeoutException.

Parameters:

target - (undocumented)

timeout - (undocumented)

stopMessage - (undocumented)

Returns:

(undocumented)
