public interface Agent
A BAM Actor sends and receives messages as the core class in a service-oriented architecture.
MessageStream
is the key customizable interface
for an agent developer. Developers will implement callbacks for each
packet type the agent understands.
Most developers will extend from SimpleActor
instead of implementing Actor directly. SimpleActor adds an
annotation-based message dispatching system to simplify Actor development.
