Struct ActorRef 

pub struct ActorRef<A, S, L = NoLifecycle> { /* private fields */ }

A typed, directly resolved handle to an actor’s user protocol.

References are issued by crate::System::spawn and may be cloned, but their concrete mailbox sender cannot be supplied or extracted externally. The message and event types are associated facts of the sender’s event protocol, not independent choices.

use bombay::{ActorRef, behavior::MailAddr};

let _: ActorRef<MailAddr, ()> = ActorRef::new(MailAddr(1), ());

Implementations

impl<A, S, L> ActorRef<A, S, L>

pub const fn address(&self) -> &A

The destination address.

impl<A, S, L> ActorRef<A, S, L>

where A: Address + Send + Sync, S: EventSender + Sync, <S as EventSender>::Event: UserEvent<Addr = A>, <<S as EventSender>::Event as UserEvent>::Message: Send, L: Sync,

pub async fn send( &self, from: A, message: <<S as EventSender>::Event as UserEvent>::Message, ) -> Result<(), <S as EventSender>::Error>

Deliver a message directly, stamped with from.

Delivery awaits bounded mailbox admission and retains ownership of the message until admission succeeds or the exact event is returned on closure. Sequential sends by one producer retain their order. Cloned references used by concurrent producers have no pre-admission ordering guarantee; their accepted messages may interleave in either order.

Errors

Returns the event sender’s delivery failure.

Trait Implementations

impl<A, S, L> Clone for ActorRef<A, S, L>

where A: Clone, S: Clone, L: Clone,

fn clone(&self) -> ActorRef<A, S, L>

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.
