Detailed Description

Coroutine-based actor interface for asynchronous message processing.

Extends IActor so that CoReceive can co_await timers, Ask, or I/O without blocking the event loop thread.

One async handler at a time. When CoReceive returns a pending TFuture<void>, the actor's mailbox is paused: no further messages are dispatched until that future completes. This removes the need for internal locking — state can be mutated freely inside the handler.

class Throttled : public ICoroActor {
    TFuture<void> CoReceive(TMessageId id, TBlob blob, TActorContext::TPtr ctx) override {
        auto msg = DeserializeNear<Work>(blob);
        co_await ctx->Sleep(std::chrono::milliseconds(50)); // next msg waits here
        process(msg);
    }
};

Member Function Documentation

CoReceive()

virtual TFuture< void > NNet::NActors::ICoroActor::CoReceive ( TMessageId  messageId, TBlob  blob, TActorContext::TPtr  ctx  )

pure virtual

Asynchronous message handler (override in subclass)

May freely use co_await ctx->Sleep(...), co_await ctx->Ask<T>(...), or any other coroutine primitive. While this coroutine is suspended, the actor's mailbox is paused — subsequent messages queue up and are delivered only after this handler returns (i.e. its future completes).

Parameters

messageId	Type identifier of the incoming message
blob	Serialized message payload
ctx	Actor context (valid for the duration of this handler)

Returns

Future that signals completion of message processing

Receive()

void NNet::NActors::ICoroActor::Receive ( TMessageId  messageId, TBlob  blob, TActorContext::TPtr  ctx  )

overridevirtual

IActor bridge — invokes CoReceive and parks pending futures.

Called by the actor system. Not meant to be overridden; override CoReceive instead.

Implements NNet::NActors::IActor.
