Package akka.actor

Class ExtensionKey<T extends Extension>

java.lang.Object

akka.actor.ExtensionKey<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

ExtensionId<T>, ExtensionIdProvider

public abstract class ExtensionKey<T extends Extension>
extends java.lang.Object
implements ExtensionId<T>, ExtensionIdProvider

Deprecated.

Use a regular Extension instead. Since 2.5.0.

This is a one-stop-shop if all you want is an extension which is constructed with the ExtendedActorSystem as its only constructor argument:

 object MyExt extends ExtensionKey[Ext]

 class Ext(system: ExtendedActorSystem) extends Extension {
   ...
 }
 

Java API:

 public class MyExt extends Extension {
   public static final ExtensionKey<MyExt> key = new ExtensionKey<MyExt>(MyExt.class);

   public MyExt(ExtendedActorSystem system) {
     ...
   }
 }
 

Note: Don't use this class if the extension is written in Scala and consumed in Eclipse Java projects. JDT has problems resolving correct type for the get method.
