Differential
public Differential(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.
fire
public void fire()
throws IllegalActionException
- Consume at most one token from the input port and output
its value minus the value of the input read in the previous
iteration. If there has been no previous iteration, then
output the current input. If there is no input, then produce
no output.
- Specified by:
fire
in interface Executable
- Overrides:
fire
in class AtomicActor
- Throws:
IllegalActionException
- If subtraction is not
supported by the supplied tokens.
initialize
public void initialize()
throws IllegalActionException
- Reset to indicate that no input has yet been seen.
- Specified by:
initialize
in interface Initializable
- Overrides:
initialize
in class AtomicActor
- Throws:
IllegalActionException
- If the parent class throws it.
postfire
public boolean postfire()
throws IllegalActionException
- Record the most recent input as the latest input.
- Specified by:
postfire
in interface Executable
- Overrides:
postfire
in class AtomicActor
- Returns:
- True if execution can continue into the next iteration.
- Throws:
IllegalActionException
- If the base class throws it.
