關於信息/信件這擋事，讓我很快地想起古代的飛鴿傳書，電視電影常常都會帶到關鍵時刻讓救火信鴿扮演傳神的奇兵，然而他要是被人抓了煮熟吃了該怎麼辦 ?
在訊息導向中間件(MOM)的設計當中，多半會特別去考慮到當信息有發出，而對方沒收到時該怎麼做? Akka 也對此有基本的處理方式因應，對於無法正確投遞的信件，會把它視為Dead Letter，系統開發者可以針對特定的信息類型設計他對應的處理機制，使得信息丟失時可被掌握。
package solid.humank.actor;
import akka.actor.AbstractActor;
import akka.actor.AbstractLoggingActor;
import akka.actor.Actor;
import akka.actor.DeadLetter;
/**
* Created by kim on 2017/4/25.
*/
public class MyDeadLetterListener extends AbstractLoggingActor {
@Override
public Receive createReceive() {
return receiveBuilder()
.match(DeadLetter.class, deadLetter -> {
log().info("received something: {}", deadLetter.message().toString());
})
.build();
}
}
在上面這個自訂的 Dead Letter 當中，我們可以透過這方式去監控死掉(已發送但收件者並沒有收件)的訊息，並自由決定你該對他做後續哪些處理。
@Test
public void dealWithDeadLetterByListener() {
final ActorSystem system = ActorSystem.create("sample");
final Props props = Props.create(ExplainActorLifeCycle.class);
final Props deadProps = Props.create(MyDeadLetterListener.class);
final TestActorRef<ExplainActorLifeCycle> ref = TestActorRef.create(system, props, "test");
final ActorRef deadLetterListener = TestActorRef.create(system, deadProps, "deadLetter");
system.eventStream().subscribe(deadLetterListener, DeadLetter.class);
assertTrue(system.eventStream().hasSubscriptions(deadLetterListener));
ref.tell(new String("Hello"), ref);
ref.tell(new String("Stop"), ref);
ref.tell(new String("Hello"), ref);
}
完成letter操作設計之後，試圖來做些驗證，主要做法是把要通知的對象停停機，並試圖去看他的執行結果：
- 對系統註冊你的 DeadLetter Listener，並告知要處理的類型(若有客製化內容需要，可自行extends DeadLetter class)。
- akka framework 提供了方法讓你檢查你當前的系統是否有註冊特定的事件，拿來查驗還算可用的方法。

**延伸思考，對於這類的非預期的結果(這不是意味著等同於錯誤或例外)，在Enterprise Integration Pattern當中多有介紹，接下來開始透過akka來實踐這幾種實作模式。 **
