Is there any way to determine an Akka actor implementation from an ActorRef?

Is there any way of determining what is the implementing class behind an Actor based on an ActorRef?

I've tried printing myActor.getClass.getName but that returns "LocalActorRef". What I want to know is the Class that was specified in the actors Props object at actor creation. Is this possible at runtime?

No, there is no way to tell from an ActorRef what sort of actor it represents.
