Class AbstractDisplayAgent

java.lang.Object

jade.core.Agent

agentgui.simulationService.agents.SimulationAgent

agentgui.simulationService.agents.AbstractDisplayAgent

All Implemented Interfaces:

ServiceSensorInterface, jade.core.TimerListener, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Runnable

public abstract class AbstractDisplayAgent
extends SimulationAgent

The Class VisualisationAgent can be used in order to build agents that are passively observing environment changes that have to be displayed by an extended VisualisationAgent.
If the SimulationService is running, the VisualisationAgent will register there as a displaying agent.

Field Detail

isPausedSimulation

protected boolean isPausedSimulation

Constructor Detail

AbstractDisplayAgent

public AbstractDisplayAgent()

Instantiates a new visualisation agent for an EnvironmentModel.

Method Detail

setup

protected void setup()

Overrides:

setup in class SimulationAgent

createNewEnvironmentController

protected abstract EnvironmentController createNewEnvironmentController()

Returns a new environment controller that depends on the actual EnvironmentModel.
As Example: In case of the 'Graph and Network Environment' a new GraphEnvironmentController will be created and returned.

Returns:

the new EnvironmentController

setEnvironmentController

protected void setEnvironmentController(EnvironmentController newEnvironmentController)

Sets the current EnvironmentController of the agent. In case that the EnvironmentController is not null, in turn this agent will be set as the controlling instance of the EnvironmentController.

Parameters:

newEnvironmentController - the new environment controller

See Also:

EnvironmentController.setDisplayAgent(AbstractDisplayAgent)

getEnvironmentController

protected EnvironmentController getEnvironmentController()

Returns the current EnvironmentController. In case that the EnvrionmentController is null, this method will invoke createNewEnvironmentController() and will set this agent as the controlling instance of the EnvironmentController.

Returns:

the environment controller

See Also:

createNewEnvironmentController(), EnvironmentController.setDisplayAgent(AbstractDisplayAgent)

takeDown

protected void takeDown()

Overrides:

takeDown in class SimulationAgent

beforeMove

protected void beforeMove()

Overrides:

beforeMove in class SimulationAgent

afterMove

protected void afterMove()

Overrides:

afterMove in class SimulationAgent

afterClone

protected void afterClone()

Overrides:

afterClone in class SimulationAgent

setPauseSimulation

public void setPauseSimulation(boolean isPauseSimulation)

Description copied from interface: ServiceSensorInterface

This method will be used by the ServiceActuator (class) to inform that the simulation is paused or not.

Parameters:

isPauseSimulation - the new pause simulation

registerAsDisplayAgent

protected void registerAsDisplayAgent()

Register this agent as DisplayAgent at the SimulationServie.

unregisterAsDisplayAgent

protected void unregisterAsDisplayAgent()

Unregister this agent as DisplayAgent at the SimulationServie.

setAgentGuiEmbedded

public void setAgentGuiEmbedded(boolean isAgentGuiEmbedded)

Sets the Agent.GUI embedded.

Parameters:

isAgentGuiEmbedded - the new agent gui embeded

isAgentGuiEmbedded

public boolean isAgentGuiEmbedded()

Checks if is the current display is embedded into the Agent.GUI main window.

Returns:

true, if is embedded into Agent.GUI

getJFrameStandalone

protected javax.swing.JFrame getJFrameStandalone()

Gets an independent frame in order to display the current environment model.

Returns:

the independent frame

setTimeModelDisplay

protected void setTimeModelDisplay(TimeModel timeModel)

Sets the time model display.

removeTimeModelDisplay

protected void removeTimeModelDisplay()

Removes the time model display.
