Constructor vs startup method for Microkernels and downloadable API Scaladoc?

[adelbertc]

For microkernels, is there a preferred way of doing things in terms of putting "work" in the constructor or startup method or does it not matter? Currently I create an ActorSystem in the constructor and spawn the Workers (I have a Master-Worker system) in the startup.

Also, is there a place to download the Scaladoc for Akka? I can only find links to an "online" version here: http://akka.io/docs/

Either create your ActorSystem in the initializer or in the startup() method, but don't create actors before the startup method. If you have multiple bootables they will all be constructed first, and then their startup method will be called in turn.

The Scaladoc is part of the zip/tar download http://akka.io/downloads/
