Constructor Detail

MoMLGenerator

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

Construct an actor with the given container and name.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name of this actor.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the actor 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

Read the model presented at the input port, and output its moml to the output port.

Specified by:

fire in interface Executable

Overrides:

fire in class AtomicActor

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the model cannot be read or the moml cannot be produced.

prefire

public boolean prefire()
                throws IllegalActionException

Return true if there is a model at the input port, or false otherwise.

Specified by:

prefire in interface Executable

Overrides:

prefire in class AtomicActor

Returns:

true if there is a model at the input port, or false otherwise.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If availability of input tokens cannot be tested.
