Async call of actors does not work as discussed in the docs.

[brettc]

The documentation suggests you can await the creation of an actor. Using the Counter class in the Actor docs, it shows:

async def f():
    counter = await client.submit(Counter, actor=True)

When I try this I get:

AttributeError: type object 'Counter' has no attribute '__await__'. Did you mean: '__init__'?

What have I misunderstood?

I'm going to answer my own question: You need to start the client with the asynchronous=True.

RTFM. sigh.
