Does it make sense to wrap an async call to a web service inside an actor?
Basically, does it make sense to have an actor like the following for each
web service my system uses? :
class WsActor extends Actor {
def callWebService(params: WsParams): Future[WsResponse] = ???
def receive = {
case params : WsParams => callWebService(params) pipeTo sender
}
}
My general doubt is: there must be situations in which using a plain future
is enough and others in which an Actor can have some benefits. For example
the error handling might be better when using a supervisor?
