I need to run a static method on a Java class (provided as a jar 
dependency).  
I also wanted to be able to write test on that. I created a wrapper class 
in Scala that will call this method. It looks like  

object CurrentLogProcessor {
}

class CurrentLogProcessor {
  def run: Unit = LogReaderDisruptor.main(Array())
}


case object LogProcessRequest

object LProcessor {
  def props(currentLogProcessor: CurrentLogProcessor) = Props(new 
LProcessor(currentLogProcessor))
}

class LProcessor(currentLogProcessor: CurrentLogProcessor) extends Actor {
  val log = Logging(context.system, this)

  def receive = {
    case LogProcessRequest => log.debug("starting log processing")
      currentLogProcessor run
  }
}

and in my App I call this actor as  

  val logProcessor = system.actorOf(LProcessor.props(new 
CurrentLogProcessor), "logProcessor")
  logProcessor ! LogProcessRequest


This compiles and works fine. Also, I am planning to 
mock(CurrentLogProcessor) so that I may be able to test it.  

Does this approach looks good? I am new to akka so wanted to make sure I am 
not making mistakes here

Thank you
