Load a datasource from a URL.

This actor generates an ObjectToken that contains a DataSource.

This actor is typically connected to a VideoPlayer actor.

Constructor Detail

StreamLoader

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

initialize

public void initialize()
                throws IllegalActionException
Description copied from class: AtomicActor
Initialize this actor. Derived classes override this method to perform actions that should occur once at the beginning of an execution, but after type resolution. Derived classes can produce output data and schedule events.

Specified by:
initialize in interface Initializable
Overrides:
initialize in class AtomicActor
Throws:
IllegalActionException - If a derived class throws it.

postfire

public boolean postfire()
                 throws IllegalActionException
Description copied from class: AtomicActor
Return true, unless stop() has been called, in which case, return false. Derived classes override this method to define operations to be performed at the end of every iteration of its execution, after one invocation of the prefire() method and any number of invocations of the fire() method. This method typically wraps up an iteration, which may involve updating local state. In derived classes, this method returns false to indicate that this actor should not be fired again.

Specified by:
postfire in interface Executable
Overrides:
postfire in class AtomicActor
Returns:
True if execution can continue into the next iteration.
Throws:
IllegalActionException - Not thrown in this base class.
