Constructor Detail

RelationWidthInference

public RelationWidthInference(CompositeActor topLevel)

Create RelationWidthInference, the algorithm for width inference. Also set the top level to the value given as argument.

Parameters:

topLevel - The top level CompositeActor.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If the specified actor is not the top level container. That is, its container is not null.

Method Detail

inferringWidths

public boolean inferringWidths()

Determine whether widths are currently being inferred or not.

Returns:

True When widths are currently being inferred.

inferWidths

public void inferWidths()
                 throws IllegalActionException

Infer the width of the relations for which no width has been specified yet. The specified actor must be the top level container of the model.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the widths of the relations at port are not consistent or if the width cannot be inferred for a relation.

needsWidthInference

public boolean needsWidthInference()

Return whether the current widths of the relation in the model are no longer valid anymore and the widths need to be inferred again.

Returns:

True when width inference needs to be executed again.

notifyConnectivityChange

public void notifyConnectivityChange()

Notify the width inference algorithm that the connectivity in the model changed (width of relation changed, relations added, linked to different ports, ...). This will invalidate the current width inference.

_relationsWithUnspecifiedWidths

protected static java.util.Set<IORelation> _relationsWithUnspecifiedWidths(java.util.List<?> relationList)
                                                                    throws IllegalActionException

Filter the relations for which the width still has to be inferred.

Parameters:

relationList - The relations that need to be filtered.

Returns:

The relations for which the width still has to return.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the expression for the width cannot be parsed or cannot be evaluated, or if the result of evaluation violates type constraints, or if the result of evaluation is null and there are variables that depend on this one.
