Package ptolemy.vergil.actor

Class ActorInstanceController

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    NodeController
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    DependencyHighlighter.DependencyController
    public class ActorInstanceController
extends ActorController
    This class provides interaction with nodes that represent Ptolemy II actor instances (i.e., not classes). This extends the base class by providing a mechanism in the context menu for converting the instance into a class.

    NOTE: There should be only one instance of this class associated with a given GraphController. This is because this controller listens for changes to the graph and re-renders the ports of any actor instance in the graph when the graph changes. If there is more than one instance, this rendering will be done twice, which can result in bugs like port labels appearing twice.
