Newbie question of Akka – I’m reading over Akka Essentials, could someone please explain the difference between Akka Stop/Poison Pill vs. Kill ? The book offers just a small explaination “Kill is synchronous vs. Poison pill is asynchronous.” But in what way? Does the calling actor thread lock during this time? Are the children actors notified during kill, post-stop envoked, etc? Example uses of one concept vs. the other?
Many thanks!
