public class EventButton
extends TypedAtomicActor

Output a token when the actor is fired. This actor customizes its interaction to request a firing whenever the icon is double clicked. By default, the value of the output is a boolean true. To change this, Alt-click on the icon.

Field Detail

buttonPressed

public Parameter buttonPressed

Hidden parameter controlling the visual rendition of the button.

output

public TypedIOPort output

The output port. The type of this port is the same as that of the value parameter.

pressDuration

public Parameter pressDuration

Amount of time to keep the button depressed, in seconds. Additional button presses during this time will be ignored. This is a double with default value 0.2.

value

public Parameter value

The value produced. This is a boolean true by default.

Constructor Detail

EventButton

public EventButton(CompositeEntity container,
                   java.lang.String name)
            throws IllegalActionException,
                   NameDuplicationException

Construct an actor.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name of this actor.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the entity cannot be contained by the proposed container.

NameDuplicationException - If the container already has an actor with this name.

Method Detail

clone

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

Clone the actor into the specified workspace. This method sets the type constraint of the output to be at least the type of the value.

Overrides:

clone in class TypedAtomicActor

Parameters:

workspace - The workspace for the new object.

Returns:

A new actor.

Throws:

java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException - If a derived class contains an attribute that cannot be cloned.

NamedObj.exportMoML(Writer, int, String), NamedObj.setDeferringChangeRequests(boolean)

fire

public void fire()
          throws IllegalActionException

Fire the actor.

Specified by:

fire in interface Executable

Overrides:

fire in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Throws:

IllegalActionException - Not thrown in this base class.

initialize

public void initialize()
                throws IllegalActionException

Mark that the model is now executing.

Specified by:

initialize in interface Initializable

Overrides:

initialize in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the superclass throws it.

wrapup

public void wrapup()
            throws IllegalActionException

Mark that the model is no longer executing.

Specified by:

wrapup in interface Initializable

Overrides:

wrapup in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the superclass throws it.
