Akka.NETIActorRefProvider Interface
TBD

Namespace:  Akka.Actor
Assembly:  Akka (in Akka.dll) Version: 1.2.3.42 (1.2.3.42)
Syntax
public interface IActorRefProvider

The IActorRefProvider type exposes the following members.

Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyDeadLetters
Gets the dead letters.
Public propertyDefaultAddress
Gets the external address of the default transport.
Public propertyDeployer
Gets the deployer.
Public propertyGuardian
Gets the supervisor used for all top-level user actors.
Public propertyRootGuardian
Reference to the supervisor of guardian and systemGuardian; this is exposed so that the ActorSystemImpl can use it as lookupRoot, i.e. for anchoring absolute actor look-ups.
Public propertyRootPath
Gets the root path for all actors within this actor system, not including any remote address information.
Public propertySettings
Gets the settings.
Public propertySystemGuardian
Gets the supervisor used for all top-level system actors.
Public propertyTempContainer
Returns the actor reference representing the "/temp" path.
Public propertyTerminationTask
This Future is completed upon termination of this IActorRefProvider, which is usually initiated by stopping the guardian via Stop(IActorRef).

Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodActorOf
Actor factory with create-only semantics: will create an actor as described by props with the given supervisor and path (may be different in case of remote supervision). If systemService is true, deployment is bypassed (local-only). If a value fordeploy is passed in, it should be regarded as taking precedence over the nominally applicable settings, but it should be overridable from external configuration; the lookup of the latter can be suppressed by setting "lookupDeploy" to "false".
Public methodGetExternalAddressFor
Obtain the address which is to be used within sender references when sending to the given other address or none if the other address cannot be reached from this system (i.e. no means of communication known; no attempt is made to verify actual reachability).
Public methodInit
Initialization of an ActorRefProvider happens in two steps: first construction of the object with settings, eventStream, etc. and then—when the ActorSystem is constructed—the second phase during which actors may be created (e.g. the guardians).
Public methodRegisterTempActor
Registers an actorRef at a path returned by TempPath; do NOT pass in any other path.
Public methodResolveActorRef(String)
Get the actor reference for a specified path. If no such actor exists, it will be (equivalent to) a dead letter reference.
Public methodResolveActorRef(ActorPath)
Get the actor reference for a specified path. If no such actor exists, it will be (equivalent to) a dead letter reference.
Public methodRootGuardianAt
Reference to the supervisor of guardian and systemGuardian at the specified address; this is exposed so that the ActorRefFactory can use it as lookupRoot, i.e. for anchoring absolute actor selections.
Public methodTempPath
Generates and returns a unique actor path below "/temp".
Public methodUnregisterTempActor
Unregister a temporary actor (i.e. obtained from TempPath); do NOT pass in any other path.
