Class TurboMethodActivator

java.lang.Object
  extended by madkit.kernel.Activator
      extended by madkit.simulation.activators.TurboMethodActivator

public class TurboMethodActivator
extends Activator

Optimized version of the SingleMethodActivator can only invoke a simple method with no parameters

Version:
2.0
Author:

Field Summary
protected  java.util.Map methods
          methods maps an agent to its corresponding Method object for runtime invocation
 
Constructor Summary
TurboMethodActivator(java.lang.String methodName, java.lang.String groupName, java.lang.String roleName)
           
TurboMethodActivator(java.lang.String methodName, java.lang.String communityName, java.lang.String groupName, java.lang.String roleName)
           
 
Method Summary
 void execute()
          this method can be overridden and used to define one behavior for the activator.
 AbstractAgent getAgentNb(int nb)
           
 java.util.ListIterator getAgentsIterator()
          return a ListIterator orver the agents that handle the group/role couple
 java.lang.String getCommunity()
           
 java.util.List getCurrentAgentsList()
          return a list view (a snapshot at moment t) of the agents that handle the group/role couple (in proper sequence)
 java.lang.String getGroup()
           
 java.lang.String getMethodName()
           
 java.lang.String getRole()
           
 java.util.ListIterator getShuffledAgentsIterator()
          return a ListIterator that has been previously shuffled
 void initialize()
          this method is automatically invoked the first time the agents variable is updated so it's a good place to initialize activator's parameters like in the SingleMethodActivator for exemple
 int numberOfAgents()
          return the number of the agents that handle the group/role couple
 java.lang.String toString()
           
 void update(AbstractAgent theAgent, boolean added)
          this method is automatically invoked when changes occur on the considered group/role couple

Method Detail

getMethodName

public java.lang.String getMethodName()

initialize

public void initialize()
Description copied from class: Activator
this method is automatically invoked the first time the agents variable is updated so it's a good place to initialize activator's parameters like in the SingleMethodActivator for exemple

Overrides:
initialize in class Activator

update

public void update(AbstractAgent theAgent,
                   boolean added)
Description copied from class: Activator
this method is automatically invoked when changes occur on the considered group/role couple

Overrides:
update in class Activator
Parameters:
theAgent - is the agent which have been added or removed from the agents collection, the getAgentsList() List)
added - is true if the Agent has been added to the agents collection, false if removed from it

execute

public void execute()
Description copied from class: Activator
this method can be overridden and used to define one behavior for the activator. It is only defined for genericity purposes : giving developers a generic entry point in the activator class.

Overrides:
execute in class Activator

getAgentsIterator

public final java.util.ListIterator getAgentsIterator()
return a ListIterator orver the agents that handle the group/role couple

Since:
MadKit 3.0

getShuffledAgentsIterator

public final java.util.ListIterator getShuffledAgentsIterator()
return a ListIterator that has been previously shuffled

Since:
MadKit 3.0

getCurrentAgentsList

public final java.util.List getCurrentAgentsList()
return a list view (a snapshot at moment t) of the agents that handle the group/role couple (in proper sequence)

Since:
MadKit 3.0

numberOfAgents

public final int numberOfAgents()
return the number of the agents that handle the group/role couple


getAgentNb

public final AbstractAgent getAgentNb(int nb)

getCommunity

public final java.lang.String getCommunity()

getGroup

public final java.lang.String getGroup()

getRole

public final java.lang.String getRole()

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
