Method Detail

init

public void init(ActorContext pAC)

To leave constructor empty, this method is used to initialize Object data

Overrides:

init in class MobilitySupportActor

Parameters:

pAC - context data for this actor

start

public void start()

Starts this entity

Specified by:

start in interface MicroActorInterface

Overrides:

start in class MobilitySupportActor

control

public RequestResult control(java.lang.String command,
                             java.lang.String[] pars)
                      throws java.lang.Exception

Controls this entity through text commands and paramters. This method can be called i.e. from the debug window. If a request can not be handled here, it is forwarded to the parent object. Specialized functionality should be put in this method.

Specified by:

control in interface ControlInterface

Overrides:

control in class MobilitySupportActor

Parameters:

command - the command to be performed

Returns:

TAPAS style result indication of the operation

java.lang.Exception

mobilityActorEntry

public RequestResult mobilityActorEntry(RequestPars pRP)

Common enrty point of this actor to invoke some activity from outside

Specified by:

mobilityActorEntry in class MobilitySupportActor

Parameters:

pRP - Parameters for the activity this actorEntry will attempt to carry out

Returns:

Result of the activity this actorEntry attempted to carry out

getPingNodes

public java.util.Vector getPingNodes()

Returns a vector of pingable nodes

Specified by:

getPingNodes in class MobilitySupportActor

registerNode

private RequestResult registerNode()

Method to register this node with MM.

registerNodeCancel

protected RequestResult registerNodeCancel()

Method method to RegisterNodeCancel this node with MM.

terminalMoveLocation

public void terminalMoveLocation(java.lang.String oldNode,
                                 java.lang.String newNode)

Method to handle the detected moving of a terminal, i.e. that a terminal has received a new IP address. All stored values/parameters/configs should be changed to reflect this change. Only MobilityAgent terminals are allowed to move. Called from MicroPingClient.

Specified by:

terminalMoveLocation in class MobilitySupportActor

Parameters:

oldNode - The old address.

newNode - The new address.

locateNewMM

private void locateNewMM(java.lang.String oldNode,
                         java.lang.String newNode)

setConnected

                         Node pNode)

Method that allows changing the connection status. The frame icon will change to indicate connection status.

Specified by:

setConnected in class MobilitySupportActor

Parameters:

pIsConnected - Boolean indicating whether the specified node is connected.

pNode - The node that has no connection (for MA=this node)

Overrides:

status in class MobilitySupportActor

Returns:

Hierarchy of Item information elements

term
