I'm using Akka with Play Framework and recently updated to Play Framework
2.3 (which uses Akka 2.3.3).
In my code I have a piece which nestles Akka schedulers, something like
this:
Akka.system.scheduler.schedule(0 seconds, 20 seconds) {
Akka.system.scheduler.scheduleOnce(3 seconds) {
println("stuff")
}}
But since upgrading Play and Akka, the reload doesn't work and the reason for
this seems to be that Akka is unable to shut down. The simple code above is
enough to reproduce the problem inside Play Framework. What makes this problem
harder is that there is no error what so ever. It simply hangs with the
following message:
[success] Compiled in 993ms
--- (RELOAD) ---
[info] play - Shutdown application default Akka system.
And then nothing happens at all.
I have filed a bug with Play Framework
(https://github.com/playframework/playframework/issues/3048) but the first
answer seems to think that this is related to Akka rather than Play. However,
I've tried using the code inside the simple "hello-akka" inside Activator and
then it worked fine so it may have to do something with the way Play reloads
Akka.
So of course I can work around this problem and avoid using nestling - but it
is probably something that has to be fixed either way.
Any suggestions?
