Interface Scope

All Known Implementing Classes:

ClusterScope, ClusterScope$, LocalScope, LocalScope$, NoScopeGiven, NoScopeGiven$, RemoteScope

public interface Scope

The scope of a Deploy serves two purposes: as a marker for pattern matching the “scope” (i.e. local/remote/cluster) as well as for extending the information carried by the final Deploy class. Scopes can be used in conjunction with a custom ActorRefProvider, making Akka actors fully extensible.

Method Detail

withFallback

Scope withFallback(Scope other)

When merging Deploy instances using withFallback() on the left one, this is propagated to “merging” scopes in the same way. The setup is biased towards preferring the callee over the argument, i.e. a.withFallback(b) is called expecting that a should in general take precedence.
