public interface TypedActor
extends Actor

A TypedActor is an actor whose ports have types. This interface defines the method to get type constraints from an actor. The ports on a TypedActor are constrainted to be TypedIOPorts.

Method Detail

typeConstraintList

java.util.List typeConstraintList()
                                  throws IllegalActionException

Return the type constraints of this actor. The constraints is a list of inequalities.

Returns:

a list of Inequality.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If type conflict is detected during static type checking.
