Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie for Akka, for load balance consideration, I created 5 actors 
to handle the incoming requests, but one important requirement is that 
different types of objects with same key(Symbol of Quote/Trade/RefData in 
my code below) should be routed to same actor, after searching Akka 
doc, ConsistentHashingRoutingLogic is a choice

After running code with testing data, same type of objects were routed to 
same actor, but for different types of objects(Quote,Trade, RefData with 
same Symbol),  it doesn't work as i expected, they were routed to different 
actors
eg:
Quote quote1,quote2;
quote1.setSymbol("001");            // quote1 & quote2 were routed to same 
actor(h0)        -- no issue
quote2.setSymbol("001");

Trade trade;
trade.setSymbol("001");      // trade was sent to different actor (h1)     
               -- problem

RefData refData;
refData.setSymbol("001");    // refData was sent to different actor (h2)   
        -- problem

Can anyone provide any suggestion to route them into same actor ? Thanks a 
lot.

int nOfHisActor = 5;

actorSystem = ActorSystem.create("lunar");
String[] pathArray = new String[nOfHisActor];
for (int i = 0; i < nOfHisActor; i++) {
    String path = "h" + i;
    pathArray[i] = "/user/" + path;
    actorSystem.actorOf(Props.create(HisMarketDataActor.class), path);
}
List<String> paths = Arrays.asList(pathArray);
hisInfoActor = actorSystem.actorOf(new 
ConsistentHashingGroup(paths).withHashMapper(o -> {
    if (o instanceof Quote) {
        return ((Quote) o).getSymbol();
    } else if (o instanceof Trade) {
        return ((Trade) o).getSymbol();
    } else if (o instanceof RefData) {
        return ((RefData) o).getSymbol();
    }
    return null;
}).props(), "price");
