15:24 <TwoNotes> 'this' in an actor behavior seems to be a 'ref'. How do I get the 'tag' capability of the current actor?

15:44 <jemc> a capability can always be downgraded implicitly - that is, a `ref` can be used wherever a `tag` is expected

15:44 <jemc> however, if you need to be explicit for some reason, you could do something like this:

15:44 <jemc> `let this_tag: MyActor tag = this`

15:45 <jemc> however, I'm having trouble imagining a situation where you need to be that explicit - if you give more info on what you're trying to do I can probably give you a more idiomatic answer

16:28 <TwoNotes> Trying to put the actor tag into the field of a class object

16:28 <TwoNotes> object.session = this

16:29 <TwoNotes> The field is declared as an 'interface' name. Maybe I should add 'tag' there

16:29 <TwoNotes> ver session: HttpSession

16:31 <TwoNotes> Compler says "not safe to write right side to left side

16:32 <TwoNotes> The 'this' actor does implement the required interface, but also has additional methods

16:32 <TwoNotes> "Right side type: _ServerConnection ref"

16:33 <TwoNotes> I have actor _ServerConnection is HttpSession

16:37 <TwoNotes> Putting in the 'let this_tag' conversion does work, but looks kind of clunky

17:09 <jemc> TwoNotes: can you paste the snippet and the full error output (in a gist or similar)

23:49 <SeanTAllen> jemc: unfortunately looks like back pressure is not working

23:59 <jemc> :/
