This project was made while testing the Akka Remoting features. It contains three modules; a Client, a Server and a LoggerEnvironment. The two types of Akka Remoting are tested; Creation and Lookup.
The client uses remote lookup to get an ActorSelection of a Remote Actor (running on the Server.) and sends a message to it.
The server creates a CalculatorActor and handles incoming messages.
The server also creates a LoggingActor which is (remotely) deployed on the LoggerEnvironment.
Essentially nothing more than a container. The server will create an actor on this environment.
You can run the program like every ordinary Java main program. Make sure you have mvn clean installed the project before to get the Akka dependency.
It's important to run the projects in the following order:
- LoggerEnvironment
- Server
- Client
