public class Slice
extends FixTransformer

Produce an output token on each firing with a FixPoint value that is equal to the slicing of the bits of the input token value. The bit width of the output token value is determined by taking the difference of parameters start and end. The width parameter specifies the bit width of the input value. The output FixPoint value is unsigned, and all its bits are integer bits. The input can have any scalar type.

Field Detail

input

public TypedIOPort input
The input port.


start

public Parameter start
The start index for the portion of the bits to be sliced.


end

public Parameter end
The end index for the portion of the bits to be sliced.


lsb

public Parameter lsb

Constructor Detail

Slice

public Slice(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
Output a consecutive subset of the input bits. If there is no input, then produce no output.

Specified by:
fire in interface Executable
Overrides:
fire in class AtomicActor
Throws:
IllegalActionException - If there is no director.
