I guess I don't have separate parent for each group therefore I was looking to see how to group the child actors but anyways since it is not the standard approach from what you are saying I would not go that way. I believe I can leverage event bus <http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/java/event-bus.html> for this since all I want to do is broadcast different messages to different groups of actors within a single JVM.
Maybe, not sure what your exact use case is. Picking the simplest thing to solve your problem is usually a good rule of thumb Is it recommended to have multiple actors systems within the same JVM? I am using the Play framework and it has a default Actor system but I wondering if I should use Actor system provided by the Play framework or create my own to leverage event bus? One system is fine, do however read about blocking (google "akka blocking") to learn how to configure dispatchers to avoid blocking the main dispatcher. I am assuming the different between pub-sub and event bus is one is distributed and other is not respectively. isn't it? Yeah, event-bus is just a quick local thing. Distributed Pub Sub is distributed pub-sub :) -- Konrad `ktoso` Malawski Akka <http://akka.io> @ Lightbend <http://lightbend.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.
