I ran into an issue earlier today when I wanted to check whether two actors were running in the same actor system / process. I first tried
a.home_system().node() != b.home_system().node(), but then realized these both return the same node_id. I then tried a.node() != b.node(), which works as expected. Is this a bug, or am I just misunderstanding? I am still on CAF 0.17.6.
Hi again. Another edge case... I'm trying to destroy an actor system and then recreate it for the purpose of changing configuration. Is this supported? I'm running into an issue where I can create a second actor system (with a different number of threads) but it hangs if I then try to destroy this second instance. Seems to hang in the actor system destructor on the logger dtor mutex.

If "nothing happens": are you just doing regular shutdown? Links only tear down other actors in case of an error.
how can i achieve such behaviour
Ok It's working, than you.
Hi, I'm trying to write testing code with the broker based on https://github.com/actor-framework/actor-framework/blob/52914200de6f13c7efa3e38c8904064b3b916670/libcaf_io/test/io/http_broker.cpp, then call broker->send(buddy) to another actor in line 141. But the test failed when asserting the output buffer's size in line 200 because the buffer is empty

without the inputting actor stopping its process
i tried to use a set default handler but not successfully
is there any examples on this function?
Not for this particular setup, but one the examples under
message_passing should help you getting started: https://github.com/actor-framework/actor-framework/tree/master/examples/message_passing
Just want to know if an actor of this kind ""void parse_input(event_based_actor* self)"" can receive messages from other actors and how?
Thanks. I have tried this with no success:
in the scheduled_actor class one can get 4 types of queues, urgent, normal, upstream and downstream forexample
This only relates to streaming pipelines. Hopefully this helps to clean up the terminology: https://actor-framework.readthedocs.io/en/stable/Streaming.html.
But be aware that this is an experimental feature and it looks like it's soon replaces with something else.
