 | TestActorRefTActor Class |
This special ActorRef is exclusively for use during unit testing in a single-threaded environment. Therefore, it
overrides the dispatcher to CallingThreadDispatcher and sets the receiveTimeout to None. Otherwise,
it acts just like a normal ActorRef. You may retrieve a reference to the underlying actor to test internal logic.
A TestActorRefTActor can be implicitly casted to an IActorRef or you can get the actual
IActorRef from the Ref property.

The TestActorRefTActor type exposes the following members.
Constructors| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | TestActorRefTActor |
Initializes a new instance of the TestActorRefTActor class.
|
Properties| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | InternalRef |
TBD
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
 | Path |
Gets the path of this instance
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| Ref |
TBD
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| UnderlyingActor |
TBD
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| CompareTo | Compares the current instance with another object of the same type and returns an integer that indicates whether the current instance precedes, follows, or occurs in the same position in the sort order as the other object. (Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| Equals(IActorRef) | (Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
 | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Forward |
Forwards a message to this actor.
If this call is made from within an actor, the current actor will be the sender.
If the call is made from a test class that is based on TestKit, TestActor will
will be the sender;
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Receive |
Directly inject messages into actor receive behavior. Any exceptions
thrown will be available to you, while still being able to use
become/unbecome.
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| SendSystemMessage(ISystemMessage) |
TBD
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| SendSystemMessage(ISystemMessage, IActorRef) |
TBD
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| Tell(Object) |
Sends a message to this actor.
If this call is made from within an actor, the current actor will be the sender.
If the call is made from a test class that is based on TestKit, TestActor will
will be the sender;
otherwise NoSender will be set as sender.
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| Tell(Object, IActorRef) |
Sends a message to this actor with the specified sender.
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| Unwatch |
Deregisters this actor from being a death monitor of the provided ActorRef
This means that this actor will not get a Terminated()-message when the provided actor
is permanently terminated.
Returns the same ActorRef that is provided to it, to allow for cleaner invocations.
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
| Watch |
Registers this actor to be a death monitor of the provided ActorRef
This means that this actor will get a Terminated()-message when the provided actor
is permanently terminated.
Returns the same ActorRef that is provided to it, to allow for cleaner invocations.
(Inherited from TestActorRefBaseTActor.) |
Operators| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
  | Equality(IActorRef, TestActorRefTActor) |
Compares a specified IActorRef to an TestActorRefTActor for equality.
|
| Equality(TestActorRefTActor, IActorRef) |
Compares a specified TestActorRefTActor to an IActorRef for equality.
|
| Inequality(IActorRef, TestActorRefTActor) |
Compares a specified IActorRef to an TestActorRefTActor for inequality.
|
| Inequality(TestActorRefTActor, IActorRef) |
Compares a specified TestActorRefTActor to an IActorRef for inequality.
|
