public class ActorContext

extends java.lang.Object

implements java.io.Serializable

This class defines the context, or surroundings, of an actor implementation (i.e. an instance of ActorImpl). An instance of this class is passed within an ActorCreateRequest. Currently, a context contaings the following information:

• The ActorNames of the "stdout", "stdin" and "stderr" actors that handle the external output, input and error streams for this actor.

Actor implementations utilize this information in an implementation-dependent fashion.
