Re: [akka-user] Re: Send message from netty code to actor system

2015-02-07 Thread Jabbar Azam
Hello Muthukumaran,

I'm not actually using nettty but cloudhopper-smpp. It uses netty. I 
couldn't work out how to integrate cloudhopper-smpp with Akka and hence I 
was 
looking at netty to understand ways of integrating cloudhopper-smpp to 
netty. 

I'm wrapping each SmppSession inside it's own actor.

 When the actor is done with the processing, it will call:
 myThing.myMethod

 This design is OK when the target actor is very reliable and it lies in 
 the same node with myThing.

 Another way, is to use an actor to wrap around myThing. This wrapper 
 actor will communicate with targetActorRef. It may watch targetActorRef to 
 handle the case when targetActorRef dies, targetActorRef doesn't respond 
 after some timeout etc.

 Do you think I could encapsulate a netty channel inside an actor? A
