Detailed Description

template<class... Ts>
class caf::typed_response_promise< Ts >

Enables statically typed actors to delay a response message by capturing the context of a request message.

This is particularly useful when an actor needs to communicate to other actors in order to fulfill a request for a client.

Member Function Documentation

◆ async()

template<class... Ts>
bool caf::typed_response_promise< Ts >::async ( ) const

Returns whether this response promise replies to an asynchronous message.

◆ deliver()

template<class... Ts>
void caf::typed_response_promise< Ts >::deliver ( error  x)

Satisfies the promise by sending an error response message.

For non-requests, nothing is done.

◆ id()

template<class... Ts>
message_id caf::typed_response_promise< Ts >::id ( ) const

Returns the message ID of the corresponding request.

◆ next()

template<class... Ts>
strong_actor_ptr caf::typed_response_promise< Ts >::next ( ) const

Returns the actor that will receive the response, i.e., stages().front() if !stages().empty() or source() otherwise.

◆ pending()

template<class... Ts>
bool caf::typed_response_promise< Ts >::pending ( ) const

Queries whether this promise is a valid promise that is not satisfied yet.

◆ source()

template<class... Ts>
strong_actor_ptr caf::typed_response_promise< Ts >::source ( ) const

Returns the source of the corresponding request.

◆ stages()

template<class... Ts>
forwarding_stack caf::typed_response_promise< Ts >::stages ( ) const

Returns the remaining stages for the corresponding request.
