Rename types from Erlang-style names to more accessible, universal terminology as specified in ROADMAP.md. Type renames: - GenServer → Actor - GenServerHandle<G> → ActorRef<A> - CallMsg → Request - CastMsg → Message - OutMsg → Reply - CallResponse → RequestResult - CastResponse → MessageResult - InfoResponse → InfoResult - GenServerError → ActorError - GenServerInMsg → ActorInMsg Method renames: - handle_call → handle_request - handle_cast → handle_message Error variant renames: - CallMsgUnused → RequestUnused - CastMsgUnused → MessageUnused - CallTimeout → RequestTimeout File renames: - gen_server.rs → actor.rs (in both tasks/ and threads/ modules) This is a breaking change that affects the public API but makes the library more accessible to developers unfamiliar with Erlang/OTP terminology. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add Backend enum to allow explicit selection of how an Actor is spawned: - Async: Run on the async runtime (tokio tasks) - cooperative multitasking - Blocking: Run on blocking thread pool (spawn_blocking) - for blocking I/O - Thread: Run on dedicated OS thread - for long-running singletons Add start_with_backend(backend: Backend) method to Actor trait that provides a unified API for runtime selection. Existing start(), start_blocking(), and start_on_thread() methods remain as convenience aliases. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add helper methods and extract common patterns: - Add RestartType::should_restart() method to determine if a child should be restarted based on exit reason - Extract RestartIntensityTracker struct to track restart frequency and prevent restart storms - Add ChildSpec::new_with_type() helper to reduce code duplication between worker() and supervisor() constructors - Export RestartIntensityTracker from crate root 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add comprehensive tests for the new supervisor helper functionality: - test_restart_type_should_restart_permanent: verify Permanent always restarts - test_restart_type_should_restart_transient: verify Transient only restarts on crash - test_restart_type_should_restart_temporary: verify Temporary never restarts - test_restart_intensity_tracker_basic: verify restart counting and limiting - test_restart_intensity_tracker_reset: verify reset clears recorded restarts 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add comprehensive tests for the Backend enum traits and variants: - test_backend_default: verify Async is the default - test_backend_copy: verify Copy semantics work correctly - test_backend_clone: verify Clone trait implementation - test_backend_debug: verify Debug formatting for all variants - test_backend_equality: verify PartialEq and Eq implementations - test_backend_variants_exhaustive: verify all variants can be matched 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add detailed documentation for the Backend enum including: - Comparison table showing execution model, best use cases, and limitations - "When to Use Each Backend" guide with specific recommendations - "Avoid when" warnings for each backend - Code examples showing all backend selection methods - Enhanced per-variant documentation with detailed explanations 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Update the blocking_genserver example to demonstrate the new Backend enum: - Import Backend from tasks module - Use start_with_backend(Backend::Thread) for blocking actors - Use start_with_backend(Backend::Async) for async actors - Add detailed documentation explaining when to use each backend - Improve code comments explaining the blocking actor problem 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
