Field Detail

useMoml

public Parameter useMoml

Whether the cloning should use moml exported from the model.

Constructor Detail

Clone

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

Construct an event with the given name contained by the specified composite entity. The container argument must not be null, or a NullPointerException will be thrown. This event will use the workspace of the container for synchronization and version counts. If the name argument is null, then the name is set to the empty string. Increment the version of the workspace. This constructor write-synchronizes on the workspace.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name of the state.

Throws:

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

NameDuplicationException - If the name coincides with that of an entity already in the container.

Method Detail

fire

public Event.RefiringData fire(Token arguments)
                        throws IllegalActionException

Process this event and clone the model in the model parameter. If the useMoML parameter is true, the current model is exported into moml and the moml is parsed to retrieve a new model. Otherwise, the clone() method is used to clone the current model. The new model is stored back into the model parameter.

Overrides:

fire in class Event

Parameters:

arguments - The arguments used to process this event, which must be either an ArrayToken or a RecordToken.

Returns:

A refiring data structure that contains a non-negative double number if refire() should be called after that amount of model time, or null if refire() need not be called.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the model cannot be cloned, or if thrown by the superclass.
