Class UntypedActor

java.lang.Object

akka.actor.UntypedActor

All Implemented Interfaces:

Actor

Direct Known Subclasses:

UntypedActorPublisher, UntypedActorSubscriber, UntypedActorWithStash, UntypedActorWithUnboundedStash, UntypedActorWithUnrestrictedStash, UntypedConsumerActor, UntypedPersistentActor, UntypedProducerActor

public abstract class UntypedActor
extends java.lang.Object
implements Actor

Deprecated.

Use AbstractActor instead of UntypedActor. Since 2.5.0.

To be implemented by concrete UntypedActor, this defines the behavior of the UntypedActor.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
protected void	akka$actor$Actor$_setter_$context_$eq(ActorContext x$1)	Deprecated.
protected void	akka$actor$Actor$_setter_$self_$eq(ActorRef x$1)	Deprecated. The 'self' field holds the ActorRef for this actor.
ActorContext	context()	Deprecated. Scala API: Stores the context for this actor, including self, and sender.
UntypedActorContext	getContext()	Deprecated. Returns this UntypedActor's UntypedActorContext The UntypedActorContext is not thread safe so do not expose it outside of the UntypedActor.
ActorRef	getSelf()	Deprecated. Returns the ActorRef for this actor.
ActorRef	getSender()	Deprecated. The reference sender Actor of the currently processed message.
abstract void	onReceive(java.lang.Object message)	Deprecated.
void	postRestart(java.lang.Throwable reason)	Deprecated. User overridable callback: By default it calls preStart().
void	postStop()	Deprecated. User overridable callback.
void	preRestart(java.lang.Throwable reason, scala.Option<java.lang.Object> message)	Deprecated. User overridable callback: '''By default it disposes of all children and then calls postStop().'''
void	preStart()	Deprecated. User overridable callback.
scala.PartialFunction<java.lang.Object,scala.runtime.BoxedUnit>	receive()	Deprecated. Scala API: This defines the initial actor behavior, it must return a partial function with the actor logic.
ActorRef	self()	Deprecated. The 'self' field holds the ActorRef for this actor.
SupervisorStrategy	supervisorStrategy()	Deprecated. User overridable definition the strategy to use for supervising child actors.
void	unhandled(java.lang.Object message)	Deprecated. Recommended convention is to call this method if the message isn't handled in onReceive(java.lang.Object) (e.g.

Method Detail

akka$actor$Actor$_setter_$context_$eq

protected void akka$actor$Actor$_setter_$context_$eq(ActorContext x$1)

Deprecated.

Specified by:

akka$actor$Actor$_setter_$context_$eq in interface Actor

akka$actor$Actor$_setter_$self_$eq

protected final void akka$actor$Actor$_setter_$self_$eq(ActorRef x$1)

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: Actor

The 'self' field holds the ActorRef for this actor.

Can be used to send messages to itself:

 self ! message
 

Specified by:

akka$actor$Actor$_setter_$self_$eq in interface Actor

Parameters:

x$1 - (undocumented)

context

public ActorContext context()

Deprecated.

Description copied from 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.

Specified by:

context in interface Actor

Returns:

(undocumented)

getContext

public UntypedActorContext getContext()

Deprecated.

Returns this UntypedActor's UntypedActorContext The UntypedActorContext is not thread safe so do not expose it outside of the UntypedActor.

Returns:

(undocumented)

getSelf

public ActorRef getSelf()

Deprecated.

Returns the ActorRef for this actor.

Returns:

(undocumented)

getSender

public ActorRef getSender()

Deprecated.

The reference sender Actor of the currently processed message. This is always a legal destination to send to, even if there is no logical recipient for the reply, in which case it will be sent to the dead letter mailbox.

Returns:

(undocumented)

onReceive

public abstract void onReceive(java.lang.Object message)
                        throws java.lang.Throwable

Deprecated.

Throws:

java.lang.Throwable

postRestart

public void postRestart(java.lang.Throwable reason)
                 throws java.lang.Exception

Deprecated.

User overridable callback: By default it calls preStart().

Is called right AFTER restart on the newly created Actor to allow reinitialization after an Actor crash.

Specified by:

postRestart in interface Actor

Parameters:

reason - (undocumented)

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

postStop

public void postStop()
              throws java.lang.Exception

Deprecated.

User overridable callback.

Is called asynchronously after 'actor.stop()' is invoked. Empty default implementation.

Specified by:

postStop in interface Actor

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

preRestart

public void preRestart(java.lang.Throwable reason,
                       scala.Option<java.lang.Object> message)
                throws java.lang.Exception

Deprecated.

User overridable callback: '''By default it disposes of all children and then calls postStop().'''

Is called on a crashed Actor right BEFORE it is restarted to allow clean up of resources before Actor is terminated.

Specified by:

preRestart in interface Actor

Parameters:

reason - (undocumented)

message - (undocumented)

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

preStart

public void preStart()
              throws java.lang.Exception

Deprecated.

User overridable callback.

Is called when an Actor is started. Actor are automatically started asynchronously when created. Empty default implementation.

Specified by:

preStart in interface Actor

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

receive

public final scala.PartialFunction<java.lang.Object,scala.runtime.BoxedUnit> receive()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: Actor

Scala API: This defines the initial actor behavior, it must return a partial function with the actor logic.

Specified by:

receive in interface Actor

Returns:

(undocumented)

self

public final ActorRef self()

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: Actor

The 'self' field holds the ActorRef for this actor.

Can be used to send messages to itself:

 self ! message
 

Specified by:

self in interface Actor

Returns:

(undocumented)

supervisorStrategy

public SupervisorStrategy supervisorStrategy()

Deprecated.

User overridable definition the strategy to use for supervising child actors.

Specified by:

supervisorStrategy in interface Actor

Returns:

(undocumented)

unhandled

public void unhandled(java.lang.Object message)

Deprecated.

Recommended convention is to call this method if the message isn't handled in onReceive(java.lang.Object) (e.g. unknown message type). 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.

Specified by:

unhandled in interface Actor

Parameters:

message - (undocumented)
