Interface ActorFiringListener

public interface ActorFiringListener

A FiringEventListener listens for events that are issued during AtomicActor's iterations. Specifically before and after fire events. The implementation collects firing events during workflow execution.

Currently this class is being used in Kepler by the ProvenanceExecutionListener for saving actor's firings with provenance information. In the future, listeners will use this interface to initiate "smart" reruns or for fault tolerance.

Since:

Ptolemy II 5.2
