System.out.println() does not operate in Akka actor
- by faisal abdulai
I am kind of baffled by this encointer.
I am working an akka project that was created as a maven projecct and imported into eclipse using the mvn eclipse:eclipse command.
the akka actor has the system println method just to make it easy to do read the functions and methods invoked.
However any time I run the akka system, the println command does not print any thing to the eclipse console but I do not get any error messages.
does any one have any idea about this.
below is a code snippet.
public class MasterActor extends UntypedActor {
/**
*
*/
ActorSystem system = ActorSystem.create("container");
ActorRef worker1;
//public MasterActor(){}
@Override
public void onReceive(Object message) throws Exception {
System.out.println(" Master Actor 5");
if(message instanceof GesturePoints)
{ //GesturePoints gp = (GesturePoints) message;
System.out.println(" Master Actor 1");
try { worker1.tell(message, getSelf());
System.out.println(" Master Actor 2");
} catch (Exception e) {
getSender().tell(new akka.actor.Status.Failure(e), getSelf());
throw e;
}
}
else{ unhandled(message);}
}
public void preStart()
{
worker1 = getContext().actorFor("akka://[email protected]:2553/user/workerActor");
}
}
don't know whether it is a bug in eclipse.
thank you.
