Hi Oleg, This is a bit confusing – why would you need this? What is this supposed to be helping with?
The simplest way to get an execution context for a Future to run on is `import context.dispatcher` which makes it run on the same dispatcher as the Actor. Of course, that's not always what you want, so in Akka you can defined dispatchers in configuration and then look them up by name, then use them for your Futures. Please refer to the Dispatchers <http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.3.4/scala/dispatchers.html> section of the docs. Hope this helps, and if not, please explain in more detail what you are trying to achieve :-) On Tue, Aug 5, 2014 at 3:35 PM, Oleg Galako <ojo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Greetings! > > Looks like Futures inside actors are better than splitting async > processing into several message steps (which requires naming messages, > passing context in them, etc). > > Is there something wrong with this code or maybe something like that > already implemented in a better way? > > case class ExecuteRunnable(r: Runnable) > class AnotherActor extends Actor { > def withCustomEC(f: ExecutionContext => Receive): Receive = { > > def handleExecuteRunnable: Receive = { > case ExecuteRunnable(r) => println("Handling ExecuteRunnable"); > r.run() > } > > handleExecuteRunnable orElse f(new ExecutionContext { > override def execute(runnable: Runnable) = { > println("Sending ExecuteRunnable") > self forward ExecuteRunnable(runnable) > } > override def reportFailure(t: Throwable) = ??? > }) > } > > override def receive = withCustomEC(implicit ec => { > case _ => > println("got msg") > Future { 42 }.foreach(_ => println("Future completed")) > }) > } > > > -- > >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ > >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: > http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html > >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user > --- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Akka User List" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to akka-user+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to akka-user@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/akka-user. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- Cheers, Konrad 'ktoso' Malawski hAkker @ Typesafe <http://typesafe.com> -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
