Class Inbox$Inbox


  • public class Inbox$Inbox
    extends Inbox
    Receive a single message from the internal receiver actor. The supplied timeout is used for cleanup purposes and its precision is subject to the resolution of the system’s scheduler (usually 100ms, but configurable).

    Warning: This method blocks the current thread until a message is received, thus it can introduce dead-locks (directly as well as indirectly by causing starvation of the thread pool). Do not use this method within an actor!
