void	serialize (serializer &sink, const actor_addr &addr) const
void	serialize (deserializer &source, actor_addr &addr)
void	write (serializer *sink, const actor_addr &ptr) const
	Writes an actor address to sink and adds the actor to the list of known actors for a later deserialization.
actor_addr	read (deserializer *source)
	Reads an actor address from source, creating addresses for remote actors on the fly if needed.
size_t	count_proxies (const node_id &node) const

strong_actor_ptr	get (const node_id &node, actor_id aid) const
	Returns the proxy instance identified by node and aid.
strong_actor_ptr	get_or_put (const node_id &nid, actor_id aid)
	Returns the proxy instance identified by node and aid or creates a new (default) proxy instance.
std::vector< strong_actor_ptr >	get_all (const node_id &node) const
	Returns all known proxies.
void	erase (const node_id &nid)
	Deletes all proxies for node.
void	erase (const node_id &nid, actor_id aid, error rsn=exit_reason::remote_link_unreachable)
	Deletes the proxy with id aid for nid.
bool	empty () const
	Queries whether there are any proxies left.
void	clear ()
	Deletes all proxies.
actor_system &	system ()
	Returns the hosting actor system.
const actor_system &	system () const
	Returns the hosting actor system.
void	set_last_hop (node_id *ptr)
	Sets the thread-local last hop variable on the backend.
