I have the following stateful Actor
class StudentActor extends Actor with ActorLogging{
var student:Student = Student(id,firstName,lastName)
implicit val executionContext = Try {
context.system.dispatchers.lookup("blocking-code-dispatcher")
}.getOrElse(context.system.dispatcher)
override def receive = {
case UpdateStudent(_, c) =>
Future[Student] {
val updatedStudent = student.copy(counter = student.counter + c)
student = updatedStudent
log.info(sender().toString())
updatedStudent
}(executionContext).map(updatedStudent => sender() ! updatedStudent)
case GetStudent(id,_) => sender() ! student
}
}
When I try to use ask pattern to update this student from main method, I'm
receiving timeout
holder.ask(UpdateStudent("1")).mapTo[Student].foreach(println(_))
However, if I remove Future method and using the following code it works like
charm:
case UpdateStudent(_, c) => val updatedStudent = student.copy(counter
= student.counter + c)
student = updatedStudent
log.info(sender().toString())
updatedStudent
sender() ! updatedStudent
Why using Future in partial method causes ask timeout?
I believe this is something stupid, but I can't figure it out :)
