Method Detail

setBroker

public void setBroker(AgentAddress add)
This method allows the user to set the "broker" agent with the G-Box property sheet


getBroker

public AgentAddress getBroker()
This method allows the user to get the "broker" agent address in the G-Box property sheet


activate

public void activate()
Description copied from class: AbstractAgent
This method is initially called when the micro-kernel registers the agent. Usually a good place to set up some initial groups and roles.

Here is a typical example (taken from the PingPong agent of MadKit (plugin demos)) :

public void activate()
{
        try {
                createGroup(true,"ping-pong",null,null);
                println ("No ping-pong group : I created one");
                creator=true;
        } catch (OrganizationRequestException e) { // the group already exists
                creator=false;
                println ("A ping-pong group already exists : I will join");
        }
        requestRole("ping-pong","player",null);
}
 

Overrides:
activate in class AbstractAgent

live

public void live()
Description copied from class: Agent
This method defines the main behavior of threaded agents.

Overrides:
live in class Agent

handleMessage

protected void handleMessage(ACLMessage m)
