public ExplorerLauncher()
Method Detail

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.

Overrides:
activate in class AbstractAgent

live

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

Overrides:
live in class Agent

initGUI

public void initGUI()
Description copied from class: AbstractAgent
This method is called by the specific external graphic system (as the G-Box) to ask the agent to prepare a graphical interface. The agent developper should use a setGUIObject(...) within this method, as well as other necessary initializations. If the developper does not overload this method, a vanilla text output might be used as the default interface.

Overrides:
initGUI in class AbstractAgent

killExplorerAgent

public void killExplorerAgent()

end

public void end()
Description copied from class: AbstractAgent
This method is called by the agent micro-kernel at the end of the agent lifecycle. If the the agent is killed from the outside, it is the last opportunity for the agent to cleanly shutdown its operations.

Overrides:
end in class AbstractAgent

handleMessage

protected void handleMessage(Message ms)

handleMessage

protected void handleMessage(StringMessage str)
