public abstract class Source extends TypedAtomicActor
Some derived classes may attach additional significance to an input on the trigger port. For example, they might fix the type and attach some significance to the value. Note that it is not recommend to use getWidth() on the port to determine whether the port is connected, since the width may be greater than zero even if there is no actual source of data. This can occur, for example, if a trigger port is connected to the inside of a port of an opaque composite actor, and there is nothing connected to the outside of that port. It is not recommended to make the behavior of an actor dependent on a global property such as whether there is ultimately a source of data.
Any type of data on is accepted on the trigger port, therefore no
type is declared. Instead, the type resolution algorithm finds
the least fixed point. If backward type inference is enabled, and
no type has been declared for the trigger, it is constrained to be
equal to BaseType.GENERAL. This will result in upstream
ports resolving to the most general type rather than the most specific.
