从函数中调用Akka.Net Actor并取回确认

Question

1. I have an actor system with a supervisor actor implemented in the domain that is being called from outside the domain

2. The function invoking the supervisor actor has to wait till the response is received from supervisor in order to take the next step

3. Using Tell this won't be possible. Using Ask, how can the supervisor actor send the message back to the calling function?

I have used "Ask" but since there is no actor invoking the supervisor actor, nothing is returned

var result = await supervisorActor.Ask(msg);

Inside the supervisor actor to return back ack (this is not working)

private Unit Handle(Unit msg)
        => msg;

According to https://getakka.net/articles/actors/inbox.html , you should be able to use the Inbox class to interact with actors from outside the actor system.

var target = system.ActorOf(Props.Empty);
var inbox = Inbox.Create(system);

inbox.Send(target, "hello");

try
{
    inbox.Receive(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1)).Equals("world");
}
catch (TimeoutException)
{
    // timeout
}
