Problems importing akka scala












0















I am writing a toy Akka example to get some understanding of the concepts. I am having trouble importing the akka model into my project in intelij.
I am making the below import statement



import akka.actor.Actor


The error messgae reads



 cannot resolve the symbol Akka


Is there an additional step to working with akka that I have missed ?
Why does the compiler not recognise the import ?

    What version you have added in your dependencies?

  • dependencies look like this ----- libraryDependencies in ThisBuild ++= Seq( "com.typesafe.akka" %% "akka-actor" % "2.5.18", "org.scalactic" %% "scalactic" % "3.0.4", "org.scalatest" %% "scalatest" % "3.0.4" % Test, "org.scalamock" %% "scalamock" % "4.1.0" % Test, "org.scalacheck" %% "scalacheck" % "1.13.4" % Test )

You have to add Akka dependency to your build.sbt



https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.typesafe.akka/akka-actor_2.11/2.5.18



Then you should reimport the dependency, using sbt tool in your ide as mentioned here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/20466144/2201566






share|improve this answer


























  • And then maybe re-import the sbt into IntelliJ if it is not set up to do it automatically (it should prompt for it at least)

  • How do you mean by reimport now ? I have added the line "com.typesafe.akka" %% "akka-actor" % "2.3.8" to the build in libraryDependencies but that still did not resolve it , so re-importing the sbt is probably required ?
