Detailed Description

An (optional) component of the actor system with networking capabilities.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void caf::actor_system::networking_module::demonitor	(	const node_id &	node,
		const actor_addr &	observer
	)

pure virtual

Causes the module remove one entry for observer from the list of actors that receive a node_down_msg if this system loses connection to node.

Each call to monitor requires one call to demonitor in order to unsubscribe the observer completely.

virtual void caf::actor_system::networking_module::monitor	(	const node_id &	node,
		const actor_addr &	observer
	)

pure virtual

Causes the module to send a node_down_msg to observer if this system loses connection to node.
