public interface TypedActor
extends Actor

A TypedActor is an actor whose ports have types. This interface defines the method to get type constraints from an actor. The ports on a TypedActor are constrained to be TypedIOPorts.

typeConstraints

java.util.Set<Inequality> typeConstraints()
                                   throws IllegalActionException

Return the type constraints of this actor. The constraints is a list of inequalities.

Returns:

a list of Inequality.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If type conflict is detected during static type checking.

isBackwardTypeInferenceEnabled

boolean isBackwardTypeInferenceEnabled()

Look up the hierarchy to find the parameter enableBackwardTypeInference and return its value.

Returns:

True if backward type inference is enabled, return false otherwise.
