public interface Actor
```
Scala API: Stores the context for this actor, including self, and sender. It is implicit to support operations such as forward.
WARNING: Only valid within the Actor itself, so do not close over it and publish it to other threads!
ActorContext is the Scala API. getContext returns a AbstractActor.ActorContext, which is the Java API of the actor context.

    (undocumented)
  - preStart
```
void preStart()
       throws java.lang.Exception
```
    User overridable callback.
    Is called when an Actor is started. Actors are automatically started asynchronously when created. Empty default implementation.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception
  - postStop
```
void postStop()
       throws java.lang.Exception
```
    User overridable callback.
    Is called asynchronously after 'actor.stop()' is invoked. Empty default implementation.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception
  - preRestart
```
void preRestart(java.lang.Throwable reason,
                scala.Option<java.lang.Object> message)
         throws java.lang.Exception
```
    Scala API: User overridable callback: '''By default it disposes of all children and then calls postStop().'''
    
    Parameters:
    
    reason - the Throwable that caused the restart to happen
    
    message - optionally the current message the actor processed when failing, if applicable
    Is called on a crashed Actor right BEFORE it is restarted to allow clean up of resources before Actor is terminated.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception
  - postRestart
```
void postRestart(java.lang.Throwable reason)
          throws java.lang.Exception
```
    User overridable callback: By default it calls preStart().
    
    Parameters:
    
    reason - the Throwable that caused the restart to happen
    Is called right AFTER restart on the newly created Actor to allow reinitialization after an Actor crash.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception
  - unhandled
```
void unhandled(java.lang.Object message)
```
    User overridable callback.
    Is called when a message isn't handled by the current behavior of the actor by default it fails with either a DeathPactException (in case of an unhandled Terminated message) or publishes an UnhandledMessage to the actor's system's EventStream
    
    Parameters:
    
    message - (undocumented)
