Method Detail

init

public void init(ActorContext pAC)

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

Overrides:

init in class MicroTAPAS.mobility.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 MicroTAPAS.mobility.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 MicroTAPAS.mobility.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 MicroTAPAS.mobility.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 MicroTAPAS.mobility.MobilitySupportActor

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 MicroTAPAS.mobility.MobilitySupportActor

Parameters:

oldNode - The old address.

newNode - The new address.

setConnected

public void setConnected(boolean pIsConnected,
                         Node pNode)

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

Specified by:

setConnected in class MicroTAPAS.mobility.MobilitySupportActor

Parameters:

pIsConnected - Boolean indicating whether the specified node is connected.

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

public Item status()

Status report of this entity in Item hierarchy of information elements.

Overrides:

status in class MicroTAPAS.mobility.MobilitySupportActor

Returns:

Hierarchy of Item information elements

term

public void term()

Gives this actor a chance to clean up before closing down.

Specified by:

term in interface MicroActorInterface

Overrides:

term in class MicroTAPAS.mobility.MobilitySupportActor

actorEntry

public RequestResult actorEntry(RequestPars rp)

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

Specified by:

actorEntry in interface MicroActorInterface

Parameters:

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

Returns:

Result of the activity this actorEntry attempted to carry out

getConnected

public boolean getConnected()

Returns the connection status of this entity

Returns:

Connection status. false indicates no connection.

cleanUp

public void cleanUp()

Specified by:

cleanUp in interface ControlInterface
