public class Equals
extends Transformer

A logical equals operator. This operator has one input multiport and one output port that is not a multiport. It will consume at most one token from each input channel, and compare the tokens using the isEqualTo() method of the Token class. If all observed input tokens are equal, then the output will be a true-valued boolean token. If there is not at least one token on the input channels, then no output is produced. The type of the input port is undeclared and will be resolved by the type resolution mechanism. Note that all input channels must resolve to the same type. The type of the output port is boolean.

Constructor Detail

Equals

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

Construct an actor in the specified container with the specified name.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name of this actor within the container.

Throws:

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

NameDuplicationException - If the name coincides with an actor already in the container.

Method Detail

fire

public void fire()
          throws IllegalActionException

Consume at most one token from each input channel, and output the result of comparing these tokens using the isEqualTo() method of the Token class. If the input has width 1, then the output is always true. If the input has width 0, or there are no no input tokens available, then no output is produced.

Specified by:

fire in interface Executable

Overrides:

fire in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If there is no director.
