Hello, I am new to Akka. I am a bit confused with parallel Akka calls from an Akka actor. What I was trying to do is to make parallel-concurrent calls to two other actors using ask and awaiting for future to get resolved.
public class Actor1 extends UntypedActor { public void onReceive(Object message) throws Throwable { Future<Object> searchFuture1 = ask(actor2, requestMessage, FUTURE_ACTOR_TIMEOUT); ResponseMessage responseMessage1 = (ResponseMessage) Await.result(searchFuture1, Duration.create(FUTURE_ACTOR_TIMEOUT, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)); Future<Object> searchFuture2 = ask(actor3, requestMessage, FUTURE_ACTOR_TIMEOUT); ResponseMessage responseMessage2 = (ResponseMessage) Await.result(searchFuture2, Duration.create(FUTURE_ACTOR_TIMEOUT, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)); //logic to merge both the response messages } } It looks sequential while making the calls to the separate actors. I want the calls(ask) to the actors in parallel. How can I achieve it.?Please help me to understand. Thanks in Advance.
