ReceiveActor.Receive Method (Type, Func(Object, Boolean))

ReceiveActorReceive Method (Type, FuncObject, Boolean)

Registers a handler for incoming messages of the specified [!:messageType]. The handler should return true if it has handled the message. If the handler returns true no more handlers will be tried; otherwise the next registered handler will be tried.

Remarks

This method may only be called when constructing the actor or from Become(Action, Boolean).

Remarks

Note that handlers registered prior to this may have handled the message already. In that case, this handler will not be invoked.
