public class ArraySort
- extends Transformer
Sort the elements of an input array. This actor reads an array from the
input port and sends a sorted array to the output port.
The input array is required to contain either strings or non-complex
scalars, or a type error will occur. The output array will have the
same type as the input and can can be sorted in either ascending or
descending order. Duplicate entries can be optionally removed.

allowDuplicates
public Parameter allowDuplicates
- Tells the actor whether or not to remove duplicate elements.
This is a boolean that defaults to true.
ascending
public Parameter ascending
- The sort order attribute. This tells the actor whether to
sort the elements in ascending or descending order. It is a
boolean that defaults to true, which means ascending order.
ArraySort
public ArraySort(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.
clone
public java.lang.Object clone(Workspace workspace)
throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException
- Override the base class to set type constraints.
- Overrides:
clone
in class AtomicActor
- Parameters:
workspace
- The workspace for the new object.
- Returns:
- A new instance of ArrayElement.
- Throws:
java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException
- If a derived class contains
an attribute that cannot be cloned.- See Also:
NamedObj.exportMoML(Writer, int, String)
,
NamedObj.setDeferringChangeRequests(boolean)
fire
public void fire()
throws IllegalActionException
- Consume at most one array from the input port and produce
a sorted array on the output port.
If there is no token on the input, then no output is produced.
If the input is an empty array, then the same empty array token
is produced on the output.
- Specified by:
fire
in interface Executable
- Overrides:
fire
in class AtomicActor
- Throws:
IllegalActionException
- If there is no director, or
if sorting is not supported for the input array.
