@Aaronontheweb

the mailbox?

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

Yes

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

no, that has to be declared as part of Props

the message queue the mailbox uses is determined by your actor code - the interfaces

99% of the time that's a detail that comes up when you use stashing (this happens under the hood, unknown to the user)

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

I mean the type. Is there a way to say something like context.ActorOf<Foo>().WithMailbox<MyMailbox>()?

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

ah, no

it has to be registered with the systems

errr, ActorSystem

because it maintains a list of all registered mailbox types

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

Ok. I think I got it

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

and there are other configuration options that have to be passed in - some of that might be legacy stuff as a result of the coupling between dispatchers and mailboxes on the JVM

@HCanber and @rogeralsing could tell you - I've not worked with it much myself

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

So, there is no mailbox registered in the default config currently, as there is only one mailbox and the priority one must be implemented by the user

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

there's a default mailbox implementation - unbounded concurrent queue

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

There is nothing to document about these names then

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

but yeah, no other ones to speak of

there's a bunch of stuff in JVM akka for shared mailboxes

I don't think we'll ever implement those

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

Yep

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

routers are the correct tool for that job

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

Too much baggage

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

agree

don't port stuff that's deprecated, right? ;)

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

:-) Ok, let's see what I can do here. Maybe tomorrow I'll have more questions

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

sounds good bud

keep up the good work

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

Thanks for the explanations

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

you're welcome - I hope they helped :p

Joshua Benjamin

@annymsMthd

@Aaronontheweb any idea how to make a fake task that takes a parameter? for instance "./build.cmd MultiNodeSpec ClusterDeathWatchSpec"

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

F# is dark and evil magic

so no

Joshua Benjamin

@annymsMthd

rgr

I'll find it

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

question about the priority queue...

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

shoot

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

in some cases the envelope is being sent instead of the message

is this a bug?

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

could you post your snippet?

because yeah, that should not be happening

I mean the envelope should be passed to the ActorCell

but it shouldn't get passed into the OnReceive method - the actorcell should unpack it

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/blob/dev/src/core/Akka/Util/ListPriorityQueue.cs#L64

I'll open an issue for that then, ok ?

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

do you have a .NET Fiddle that can reproduce this too?

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

I'll provide one

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

if you could open an issue and include that - that would be super helpful

Natan Vivo

@nvivo

Aaron Stannard

@Aaronontheweb

thanks Natan
