Akka.Remote 1.0.6

Maintenance release for Akka.NET v1.0.5** This patch consists of many bug fixes, performance improvements, as well as the addition of two brand new alpha modules for Akka.Cluster users. Akka.Cluster.Tools** and **Akka.Cluster.Sharding** The biggest part of this release is the addition of [Akka.Cluster.Tools](http://getakka.net/docs/clustering/cluster-tools) and [Akka.Cluster.Sharding](http://getakka.net/docs/clustering/cluster-sharding), both of which are available now as pre-release packages on NuGet. ``` PM> Install-Package Akka.Cluster.Tools -pre ``` and ``` PM> Install-Package Akka.Cluster.Sharding -pre ``` Respectively, these two packages extend Akka.Cluster to do the following: 1. Distributed pub/sub (Akka.Cluster.Tools) 2. `ClusterClient` - subscribe to changes in cluster availability without actually being part of the cluster itself. (Akka.Cluster.Tools) 3. `ClusterSingleton` - guarantee a single instance of a specific actor throughout the cluster. (Akka.Cluster.Tools) 4. Sharding - partition data into durable stores (built on top of Akka.Persistence) in a manner that is fault-tolerant and recoverable across thecluster. (Akka.Cluster.Sharding) Check out the documentation for more details! http://getakka.net/docs/clustering/cluster-tools http://getakka.net/docs/clustering/cluster-sharding Fixes & Changes - Akka.NET Core** [Fix incorrect serialization of Unicode characters in NewtonSoftJsonSerializer](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1508) [Fixed: Supervisorstrategy does not preserve stacktrace](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/issues/1499) [added initial performance specs using NBench](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1520) [Add wire back as contrib package + Serialization TestKit](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1503) [Implemented the RegisterOnTermination feature.](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1523) [Increased performance of DedicatedThreadPool](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1569) [#1605 updated Google.ProtocolBuffers to 2.4.1.555](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1634) [Clear current message - fixes #1609](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1613) [Rewrite of the AtomicReference ](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1615) [Implemented WhenTerminated and Terminate](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1614) [Implemented StartTime and Uptime](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1617) [API Diff with fixed Approval file](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1639) [Fixed: NullReferenceException in Akka.Util.Internal.Collections.ImmutableAvlTreeBase`2.RotateLeft](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/issues/1202) Fixes & Changes - Akka.Remote & Akka.Cluster** It should be noted that we've improved the throughput from Akka.NET v1.0.5 to 1.0.6 by a factor of 8 [Akka.Cluster.Tools & Akka.Cluster.Sharding with tests and examples](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1530) [Added UntrustedSpec](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1535) [Akka.Remote Performance - String.Format logging perf fix](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1540) [Remoting system upgrade](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1596) [PublicHostname defaults to IPAddress.Any when hostname is blank](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1621) [Removes code that overrides OFF log level with WARNING.](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1644) [fixes issue with Helios message ordering](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1638) [Fixed: Actor does not receive "Terminated" message if remoting is used and it is not monitored actor's parent](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/issues/1646) Fixes & Changes - Akka.Persistence** [Fixed racing conditions on sql-based snapshot stores](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1507) [Fix for race conditions in presistence plugins](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1543) [Fix #1522 Ensure extensions and persistence plugins are only registered/created once](https://github.com/akkadotnet/akka.net/pull/1648) A special thanks to all of our contributors for making this happen! 18 contributors since release v1.0.5 | COMMITS | LOC+ | LOC- | AUTHOR | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 22 | 3564 | 28087 | Aaron Stannard | | 15 | 1710 | 1303 | rogeralsing | | 6 | 569 | 95 | Silv3rcircl3 | | 6 | 53594 | 4417 | Bartosz Sypytkowski | | 5 | 1786 | 345 | Sean Gilliam | | 3 | 786 | 159 | maxim.salamatko | | 2 | 765 | 277 | JeffCyr | | 2 | 44 | 53 | Chris Constantin | | 2 | 14 | 2 | Simon Anderson | | 1 | 84 | 4 | Bart de Boer | | 1 | 6051 | 27 | danielmarbach | | 1 | 6 | 2 | tstojecki | | 1 | 3 | 5 | Ralf1108 | | 1 | 27 | 0 | Andrew Skotzko | | 1 | 2 | 2 | easuter | | 1 | 2 | 1 | Danthar | | 1 | 182 | 0 | derwasp | | 1 | 179 | 0 | Onat Yiğit Mercan |
