Actor library / framework for C++
- by Giorgio
In the C++ project I am working for we would like to use something like
Scala actors and remote actors (see e.g. this tutorial).
Being able to use remote actors (actors living in different processes,
possibly on different machines and communicating via TCP/IP) has
higher priority for us because we have an application consisting of several
processes deployed on different machines.
Being able to use several actors living in the same process
(possibly different threads) is also interesting, but has lower priority
for the moment.
On wikipedia I have found some links to actor libraries for C++ and
I have started to look at Theron. Before I dive too deep into the details
and build an extended example with Theron, I wanted to ask if anybody has
experience with any of these libraries and which one they would recommend.
