Trait robots::actors::Actor

pub trait Actor: Send + Sync + 'static {
    fn receive(&self, message: Box<Any>, context: ActorCell);

    fn pre_start(&self, _context: ActorCell) { ... }
    fn post_stop(&self) { ... }
    fn pre_restart(&self, _context: ActorCell) { ... }
    fn post_restart(&self, context: ActorCell) { ... }
}

This is the trait to implement to become an Actor.

Normaly only the receive method has to be implemented.

Required Methods

fn receive(&self, message: Box<Any>, context: ActorCell)

Single method to be implemented for an Actor.

This defines the Actor's behaviour.
