## madkit.system
Class OrganizationTracer

    java.lang.Object
      madkit.kernel.AbstractAgent
          madkit.kernel.Agent
              madkit.system.OrganizationTracer

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Runnable

    public class OrganizationTracer

extends Agent

This is the second major version of the OrganizationTracer Agent. It handles the new generic kernel naming scheme. However, it is still specialized in BSD socket communications. The final architecture, with a generic Communicator agent being the representative for a group a "expert" communication agents (CORBA, BSD, ...) should appear in MadKit v. 1.2. Stay tuned.

Constructor Detail

### OrganizationTracer

    public OrganizationTracer()

Method Detail

### getParseTime

    public boolean getParseTime()

  Get the value of parseTime.

  Returns:
    Value of parseTime.

### setParseTime

    public void setParseTime(boolean v)

  Set the value of parseTime.

  Parameters:
    `v` - Value to assign to parseTime.

### 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 developer should use a setGUIObject(...) within this method, as well as other necessary initializations. If the developer does not overload this method, a vanilla text output might be used as the default interface.

  Overrides:
    `initGUI` in class `AbstractAgent`

### 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`

### showTime

    protected java.lang.String showTime()

### handleMessage

    protected void handleMessage(KernelMessage m)
