public abstract class ActorController
extends AttributeController

This class provides interaction with nodes that represent Ptolemy II entities. It provides a double click binding and context menu entry to edit the parameters of the node ("Configure"), a command to get documentation, and a command to open an actor. It can have one of two access levels, FULL or PARTIAL. If the access level is FULL, the the context menu also contains a command to rename the node and to configure its ports. In addition, a layout algorithm is applied so that the figures for ports are automatically placed on the sides of the figure for the entity.

NOTE: This class is abstract because it is missing the code for laying out ports. Use the concrete subclasses ActorInstanceController or ClassDefinitionController instead.

Since:

Ptolemy II 2.0

Constructor Detail

ActorController

public ActorController(GraphController controller)

Create an entity controller associated with the specified graph controller with full access.

Parameters:

controller - The associated graph controller.

ActorController

public ActorController(GraphController controller,
                       AttributeController.Access access)

Create an entity controller associated with the specified graph controller.

Parameters:

controller - The associated graph controller.

access - The access level.

Method Detail

addMenuItemFactory

public void addMenuItemFactory(MenuItemFactory menuItemFactory)

If access is FULL, then add the jni.ArgumentDailogFactory() to _menuFactory. If access is not FULL, then do nothing.

Parameters:

menuItemFactory - The MenuItemFactory to be added.

addHotKeys

public void addHotKeys(JGraph jgraph)

Add hot keys to the actions in the given JGraph. It would be better that this method was added higher in the hierarchy. Now most controllers

Overrides:

addHotKeys in class AttributeController

jgraph - The JGraph to which hot keys are to be added.

setConfiguration

public void setConfiguration(Configuration configuration)

Set the configuration. This is used to open documentation files.

Overrides:

setConfiguration in class AttributeController

Parameters:

configuration - The configuration.

_getComponentType

protected java.lang.String _getComponentType()

Get the class label of the component.

Overrides:

_getComponentType in class AttributeController

Returns:

the class label of the component.
