public class ProcessSink
extends Sink

Base class for simple data sinks. This class provides an input port, exposed as a public variable, and a clone method that ensures that the public variable is correctly set in the clone. The main reason for this class to ensure that the input ports of all sinks have the same name and are correctly handled in cloned actors.

Constructor Detail

ProcessSink

public ProcessSink(TypedCompositeActor container,
                   java.lang.String name)
            throws NameDuplicationException,
                   IllegalActionException

Construct an actor with an input multiport.

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

fire

public void fire()
          throws IllegalActionException

Description copied from class: AtomicActor

Do nothing. Derived classes override this method to define their primary run-time action.

Specified by:

fire in interface Executable

Overrides:

fire in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Throws:

IllegalActionException - Not thrown in this base class.

postfire

public boolean postfire()

Description copied from class: AtomicActor

Return true, unless stop() has been called, in which case, return false. Derived classes override this method to define operations to be performed at the end of every iteration of its execution, after one invocation of the prefire() method and any number of invocations of the fire() method. This method typically wraps up an iteration, which may involve updating local state. In derived classes, this method returns false to indicate that this actor should not be fired again.

Specified by:

postfire in interface Executable

Overrides:

postfire in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Returns:

True if execution can continue into the next iteration.
