Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodCompareTo(Object)
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 IComparable.)
Public methodCompareTo(T)
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 IComparableIActorRef.)
Public methodEquals
Indicates whether the current object is equal to another object of the same type.
(Inherited from IEquatableIActorRef.)
Public methodGetChild
Obtain a child given the paths element to that actor, by possibly traversing the actor tree or looking it up at some provider-specific location. A path element of ".." signifies the parent, a trailing "" element must be disregarded. If the requested path does not exist, returns Nobody.
Public methodRestart
Restart the actor.
Public methodResume
Resumes an actor if it has been suspended.
Public methodSendSystemMessage(ISystemMessage)
Sends an ISystemMessage to the underlying actor.
Public methodSendSystemMessage(ISystemMessage, IActorRef) Obsolete.
Obsolete. Use SendSystemMessage(ISystemMessage) instead.
Public methodStart
Start a newly created actor.
Public methodStop
Stop the actor. Terminates it permanently.
Public methodSuspend
Suspend the actor. Actor will not process any more messages until Resume(Exception) is called.
Public methodTell
Asynchronously delivers a message to this IActorRef or ActorSelection in a non-blocking fashion. Uses "at most once" delivery semantics.
(Inherited from ICanTell.)
Public methodToSurrogate
TBD
(Inherited from ISurrogated.)
