Is the GitHub master up to date? My project worked perfectly with streams experimental 2.0.2 but is unable to compile with 2.4.2-RC1.
Specifically, I am implementing a custom stage and referring to `akka.stream.stage.GraphStageLogic.getStageActorRef`. With the lastest RC, the compiler fails: "not found: value getStageActorRef", yet the latest source code checkout says it's there https://github.com/akka/akka/blob/master/akka-stream/src/main/scala/akka/stream/stage/GraphStage.scala. Am I missing something? Also, is there an online API scaladoc available? thanks, --Jakob On Tue, Jan 26, 2016 at 7:55 AM, Johan Andrén <johan.and...@typesafe.com> wrote: > Darn. > > Announcement subject is wrong, 2.4.2 RC-1 of course, not 2.4.1! > > -- > Johan Andrén > Typesafe - Reactive apps on the JVM > Twitter: @apnylle > > > On Tuesday, January 26, 2016 at 1:39:48 PM UTC+1, Johan Andrén wrote: >> >> Dear hakkers, >> >> we—the Akka committers—are proud to announce the FIRST RELEASE CANDIDATE >> for the upcoming release of Akka 2.4.2.
