Module parley.actor

An actor will raise this exception if it terminated by
means of an uncaught exception.

QueueClass = <class parley.actor.AbstractQueue>

def _handle_signal(self, signal):

If this function is called, we know that a signal is waiting.
Depending on the value of self.trap_exceptions, we either
raise the signal as an exception or return it as a message.

def _next_message(self, msg_filter, wait):

def go(self):

Spawn self.run in a new frame of execution.

This function is called by the controller when the created
actor is to be spawned.

def recv(self, msg_filter=None, wait=True):

def register_id(self):

Register self.id such that it can be retrieved
by controller._get_current_actor_id()
(e.g. by storing it in threadlocals).

def run(self):

Hand off control to self.target.

This function will be spawned in a new frame of execution.
