Interface ControlPanel

public interface ControlPanel

extends SwarmObject, SwarmObjectS

Class to control the top level SwarmProcess. ControlPanel keeps track of the users requests to run, stop, quit, or time step the simulation. It cooperates with the GUISwarm to control the execution of activities in Swarm.

Method Summary

Symbol	getState() Get the current button state of the controlpanel.
java.lang.Object	setState(Symbol s)
java.lang.Object	setStateNextTime() Stop the running activity, and then set state to `ControlStateNextTime'.
java.lang.Object	setStateQuit() Terminate activities, and set state to `ControlStateQuit'.
java.lang.Object	setStateRunning() Sets the state to `running'.
java.lang.Object	setStateSave() Saves the objects that are registered for archiving.
java.lang.Object	setStateStepping() Stop the running activity, and then set state to `ControlStateStepping'.
java.lang.Object	setStateStopped() The -setStateStopped message is particularly useful since it will cause the simulation to stop until the user interactively sets it back in motion (in other words, this method is useful in generating a software-triggered pause).
java.lang.Object	startInActivity(SwarmActivity activityID)

Method Detail

getState

public Symbol getState()

Get the current button state of the controlpanel. Is one of ControlStateRunning, ControlStateStopped, ControlStateStepping, ControlStateNextTime, or ControlStateQuit.

setState

public java.lang.Object setState(Symbol s)

startInActivity

public java.lang.Object startInActivity(SwarmActivity activityID)

setStateRunning

public java.lang.Object setStateRunning()

Sets the state to `running'.

setStateStopped

public java.lang.Object setStateStopped()

The -setStateStopped message is particularly useful since it will cause the simulation to stop until the user interactively sets it back in motion (in other words, this method is useful in generating a software-triggered pause).

setStateStepping

public java.lang.Object setStateStepping()

Stop the running activity, and then set state to `ControlStateStepping'.

setStateQuit

public java.lang.Object setStateQuit()

Terminate activities, and set state to `ControlStateQuit'.

setStateNextTime

public java.lang.Object setStateNextTime()

Stop the running activity, and then set state to `ControlStateNextTime'.

setStateSave

public java.lang.Object setStateSave()

Saves the objects that are registered for archiving.
