Constructor Detail

### GPongAgent

    public GPongAgent()

Method Detail

### 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`

### 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. Although it is "nicer" to make the agent leave its groups, the handled groups and roles are automatically leaved after this last step

  Overrides:
    `end` in class `AbstractAgent`
