Hi, Sorry for a repetition, but I've not idea there's my previous post.
So in my lib I add/remove routee to a router dynamicly(a routee represents a socket connection). Could be a scenario when there's no available ActorRef that is able to handle message. In that case I'm going to return an exception. Unfortunately there's no way to get ActorRef from a Router(or Option[ActorRef]) or send it with result(like tryRoute(message: Any, sender: ActorRef): Boolean). Plus current implementation just swallow messages in case of routee == NoRoutee https://github.com/akka/akka/blob/v2.3.11/akka-actor/src/main/scala/akka/routing/Router.scala#L113-L124 https://github.com/akka/akka/blob/v2.3.11/akka-actor/src/main/scala/akka/routing/Router.scala#L61-L63 >From my point of view empty router is an exceptional situation. And swallowing exceptions is not a good design/practice. -- >>>>>>>>>> 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.
