object Props extends AbstractProps with Serializable

Factory for Props instances.

Props is a ActorRef configuration object, that is immutable, so it is thread safe and fully sharable.

Used when creating new actors through ActorSystem.actorOf and ActorContext.actorOf.

Value Members

  1. def apply(clazz: Class[_], args: Any*): Props

    Scala API: create a Props given a class and its constructor arguments.

  2. def apply[T <: Actor](creator: ⇒ T)(implicit arg0: ClassTag[T]): Props

    Scala API: Returns a Props that has default values except for "creator" which will be a function that creates an instance using the supplied thunk.

    Scala API: Returns a Props that has default values except for "creator" which will be a function that creates an instance using the supplied thunk.

    CAVEAT: Required mailbox type cannot be detected when using anonymous mixin composition when creating the instance. For example, the following will not detect the need for DequeBasedMessageQueueSemantics as defined in Stash:

    'Props(new Actor with Stash { ... })

    Instead you must create a named class that mixin the trait, e.g. class MyActor extends Actor with Stash.

  3. def apply[T <: Actor]()(implicit arg0: ClassTag[T]): Props

    Scala API: Returns a Props that has default values except for "creator" which will be a function that creates an instance of the supplied type using the default constructor.

  4. def create[T <: Actor](actorClass: Class[T], creator: Creator[T]): Props

    Create new Props from the given akka.japi.Creator with the type set to the given actorClass.

    Create new Props from the given akka.japi.Creator with the type set to the given actorClass.

  6. final val default: Props

    The default Props instance, uses the settings from the Props object starting with default*.

  7. final val defaultCreator: () ⇒ Actor

    The defaultCreator, simply throws an UnsupportedOperationException when applied, which is used when creating a Props

  8. final val defaultDeploy: Deploy

    The default Deploy instance which is used when creating a Props

  9. final val defaultRoutedProps: RouterConfig

    The defaultRoutedProps is NoRouter which is used when creating a Props

  10. final val empty: Props

    A Props instance whose creator will create an actor that doesn't respond to any message

Deprecated Value Members

  1. def create[T <: Actor](creator: Creator[T]): Props

    Create new Props from the given akka.japi.Creator.

    Create new Props from the given akka.japi.Creator.

    You can not use a Java 8 lambda with this method since the generated classes don't carry enough type information.

    Use the Props.create(actorClass, creator) instead.

    (Since version 2.5.18) Use Props.create(actorClass, creator) instead, since this can't be used with Java 8 lambda.
