README for libactor

This library, and its header file, provide a means for C++
applications to be written using the Actor paradigm.

All method calls between actor objects are converted into messages
and queued for execution in a thread.

The effect is that the code for each method can be written without
concern for threads.

The downside is that the program is broken up into a large number
of event handling functions which can make understanding and debugging
more challenging.

See the programs in the src/tests directory for examples of usage.


You will need the sassy cfi library installed before building scal.

The usual configure; make; make install; should see it installed.
