Re: [akka-user] Akka config file with a jar used as dependency

Hi Daniel, What have you tried so far? What specifically isn't working? Two documentation sources that you'll want to be familiar with are http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/2.3.0/general/configuration.html and https://github.com/types

Re: [akka-user] Akka config file with a jar used as dependency
