I'm playing with akka.actor.deployment configuration and found it
confusing. Assume that we have the following dispatcher:
test-dispatcher{
executor = "thread-pool-executor"
type = Dispatcher
}
and we have two actors: */user/first* and */user/first/second*
Now, if we set the deployment config as follows:
akka.actor.deployment{
"/*" {
dispatcher = test-dispatcher
}
}
In this case */user/first* well as all other actors will use the
dispatcher. I mean *deadLetters*, *logging*, etc... which would normally be
handled by *default-dispatcher*. */user/first/second * in turn uses
*default-dispatcher. *
If we set
akka.actor.deployment{
"/**" {
dispatcher = test-dispatcher
}
}
then */user/first*, */user/first/second* as well as other system actors
will use the dispatcher. The documentation was not clear about that. They
said clearly in the documentation
<http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.4/general/configuration.html#Actor_Deployment_Configuration>
:
> The deployment section for a specific actor is defined by the path of the
> actor relative to */user*
So, system actor should have not been affected by the deployment
configuration. But they are... Is it a bug or I missed something?
