Hello Akka users,
I have a newbie question about message processing when a async request is
fired off....
class MyActor extends Actor{
def receive = LoggingReceive{
case _ =>
val s = sender
future{ something } onComplete {
s ! Result()
}
}
When a message is received, "something" is executed in another thread.
What I'm puzzled about is, even with the use of closures and other tricks
to capture the context of the sender, won't the actor "move on" to the next
message?
It's possible that "something" takes so long that lots of subsequent
messages would be processed even before the callback is executed.
What am I missing?
Thanks
David
