actor 模型原理 （三）

上面这个图呢，展示了老师这个actor收到消息之后，给学生回复的过程

DriverApp 发送一个初始化 InitSignal 消息给 StudentActor

 StudentActor 收到这个消息之后给老师发了一个 QuoteRequest

老师 回复了一个 QuoteResponse.学生收到之后再把这个回复打印出来

对于驱动程序，那么上面它做的事情用代码就是这样来做

 //Initialize the ActorSystem
  val system = ActorSystem("UniversityMessageSystem")

  //construct the teacher actor
  val teacherRef = system.actorOf(Props[TeacherActor], "teacherActor")

  //construct the Student Actor - pass the teacher actorref as a constructor parameter to StudentActor
  val studentRef = system.actorOf(Props(new StudentActor(teacherRef)), "studentActor")

  //send a message to the Student Actor
  studentRef ! InitSignal

按照我们的理解，就是直接创建一个学生actor的代理，然后发送消息给这个代理，但是学生actor的代理，需要老师actor的代理作为构造参数放进去，这种就是驱动模式

即我让某个actor发送某个请求给xxx， 比如你是学生家长，你要让你的孩子给老师打个电话，你丫的是不是得告诉学生老师的电话啊。

那么对于学生这个actor来说，它也是actor，收到的消息也是前面mailbox那一套机制，那么当它收到这个initsignal的时候，你需要在receive里面把要做的事情定义清楚

def receive = {  
    case InitSignal=> {
          teacherActorRef!QuoteRequest
    }
    ...
    ...

很简单，就是这样的代码

case QuoteResponse(quoteString) => {  
      log.info ("Received QuoteResponse from Teacher")
      log.info(s"Printing from Student Actor $quoteString")
}

接收到的消息打印一下，也是放在receive方法里面

class TeacherActor extends Actor with ActorLogging {

  val quotes = List(
    "Moderation is for cowards",
    "Anything worth doing is worth overdoing",
    "The trouble is you think you have time",
    "You never gonna know if you never even try")

  def receive = {

    case QuoteRequest => {

      import util.Random

      //Get a random Quote from the list and construct a response
      val quoteResponse = QuoteResponse(quotes(Random.nextInt(quotes.size)))

      //respond back to the Student who is the original sender of QuoteRequest
      sender ! quoteResponse

    }
  }
}

那么老师要回复消息怎么回复呢，使用sender,sender应该是Actor内置的一个成员，直接调用就可以了
