Constructor Detail

ModelParameter

public ModelParameter(NamedObj container,
                      java.lang.String name)
               throws IllegalActionException,
                      NameDuplicationException

Construct a parameter with the given name contained by the specified entity. The container argument must not be null, or a NullPointerException will be thrown. This parameter will use the workspace of the container for synchronization and version counts. If the name argument is null, then the name is set to the empty string. The object is not added to the list of objects in the workspace unless the container is null. Increment the version of the workspace.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name of the parameter.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the parameter is not of an acceptable class for the container.

NameDuplicationException - If the name coincides with a parameter already in the container.

Method Detail

addInitializable

public void addInitializable(Initializable initializable)

Add the specified object to the list of objects whose preinitialize(), initialize(), and wrapup() methods should be invoked upon invocation of the corresponding methods of this object.

Specified by:

addInitializable in interface Initializable

Parameters:

initializable - The object whose methods should be invoked.

See Also:

removeInitializable(Initializable)

clone

public java.lang.Object clone(Workspace workspace)
                       throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

Clone the parameter. This creates a new variable containing the same token (if the value was set with setToken()) or the same (unevaluated) expression, if the expression was set with setExpression(). The list of variables added to the scope is not cloned; i.e., the clone has an empty scope. The clone has the same static type constraints (those given by setTypeEquals() and setTypeAtMost()), but none of the dynamic type constraints (those relative to other variables).

Overrides:

clone in class Parameter

Parameters:

workspace - The workspace in which to place the cloned variable.

Returns:

The cloned variable.

Throws:

java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException - Not thrown in this base class.

See Also:

Object.clone()

exportMoML

public void exportMoML(java.io.Writer output,
                       int depth,
                       java.lang.String name)
                throws java.io.IOException

Write a MoML description of this parameter, unless this parameter is not persistent.

Specified by:

exportMoML in interface MoMLExportable

Overrides:

exportMoML in class Parameter

Parameters:

output - The output stream to write to.

depth - The depth in the hierarchy, to determine indenting.

name - The name to use instead of the current name.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If an I/O error occurs.

See Also:

NamedObj.isPersistent()

getExpression

public java.lang.String getExpression()

Return an empty string.

Specified by:

getExpression in interface Settable

Overrides:

getExpression in class Variable

Returns:

An empty string.

See Also:

setExpression(String)

getModel

public CompositeEntity getModel()

Get the model stored in this parameter.

Returns:

The model.

See Also:

setModel(CompositeEntity)

getToken

public Token getToken()
               throws IllegalActionException

Get the token of this parameter, which is an ActorToken containing the model.

Overrides:

getToken in class Variable

Returns:

The token.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the ActorToken cannot be created.

See Also:

setToken(Token)

initialize

public void initialize()
                throws IllegalActionException

Initialize this model parameter.

Specified by:

initialize in interface Initializable

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If thrown by other initializables associated to this parameter.

modelChanged

public void modelChanged()

React to change of the model in this parameter.

preinitialize

public void preinitialize()
                   throws IllegalActionException

Preinitialize this model parameter and set the current model to be null.

Specified by:

preinitialize in interface Initializable

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If thrown by other initializables associated to this parameter.

removeInitializable

public void removeInitializable(Initializable initializable)

Remove the specified object from the list of objects whose preinitialize(), initialize(), and wrapup() methods should be invoked upon invocation of the corresponding methods of this object. If the specified object is not on the list, do nothing.

Specified by:

removeInitializable in interface Initializable

Parameters:

initializable - The object whose methods should no longer be invoked.

See Also:

addInitializable(Initializable)

setContainer

public void setContainer(NamedObj container)
                  throws IllegalActionException,
                         NameDuplicationException

Set the new container of this parameter.

Overrides:

setContainer in class Variable

Parameters:

container - The new container.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the container will not accept a variable as its attribute, or this variable and the container are not in the same workspace, or the proposed container would result in recursive containment.

NameDuplicationException - If the container already has an attribute with the name of this variable.

See Also:

Attribute.getContainer()

setExpression

public void setExpression(java.lang.String expression)

Do nothing.

Specified by:

setExpression in interface Settable

Overrides:

setExpression in class Variable

Parameters:

expression - The new expression.

See Also:

getExpression()

setModel

public void setToken(Token token)
              throws IllegalActionException

Set the model in this parameter with an ActorToken.

Overrides:

setToken in class Variable

Parameters:

token - The ActorToken.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the token is not an ActorToken.

See Also:

getToken()

wrapup

public void wrapup()
            throws IllegalActionException

Set the model in this parameter to be null.

Specified by:

wrapup in interface Initializable
