Hi, I am an Akka newbie trying to get my head around streams.
In the following working snippet, if I have a netcat server running I can get the client to send the bytes across. The sink.ignore that I added is simply because I needed a sink to connect to to run the graph. Is that really needed and how would I run something without it because as I see it, I have a source and a the flow created by the Tcp.get(....), that should be sufficient to send the data. Did have a look at the TCpEcho example, but I want to do it without the runfold. ``` Flow<ByteString, ByteString, CompletionStage<OutgoingConnection>> flow = Tcp .get(system).outgoingConnection("127.0.0.1", 6000); Source<ByteString, NotUsed> clientSource = Source.single(ByteString .fromString("Chhil")); clientSource.via(flow).to(Sink.ignore()).run(mat); ``` -chhil -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
