public class Barrier
extends TypedAtomicActor
implements BranchActor

This actor implements multiway rendezvous on all channels of the input port, collects the tokens, and then performs a multiway rendezvous on all channels of the output port, sending the collected data. A token provided on an input channel is sent to the corresponding output channel. If there are fewer output channels than input channels, then the corresponding input data are discarded. If there are fewer input channels than output channels, then the last input channel provides the token for the remaining ones. If there are no input channels, then an exception is thrown.

Field Detail

input

public TypedIOPort input

The input port, which is a multiport that can accept any data type.

output

public TypedIOPort output

The output port, which is a multiport whose type is at least that of the input port.

Constructor Detail

Barrier

public Barrier(CompositeEntity container,
               java.lang.String name)
        throws IllegalActionException,
               NameDuplicationException

Construct an actor in the specified container with the specified name. The name must be unique within the container or an exception is thrown. The container argument must not be null, or a NullPointerException will be thrown.

Parameters:

container - The container.

name - The name.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the actor cannot be contained by the proposed container.

NameDuplicationException - If the name coincides with an actor already in the container.

Method Detail

fire

public void fire()
          throws IllegalActionException

Perform a multiway rendezvous with all input channels, collect one input token from each channel, and then perform a multiway rendezvous with the output channels, providing that data.

Specified by:

fire in interface Executable

Overrides:

fire in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If the input width is zero.

TerminateProcessException - If the process termination is requested by the director.

getBranchController

public AbstractBranchController getBranchController()

Return the conditional branch control of this actor.

Specified by:

getBranchController in interface BranchActor

Returns:

The conditional branch controller.

initialize

public void initialize()
                throws IllegalActionException

Initialize this actor.

Specified by:

initialize in interface Initializable

Overrides:

initialize in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If a derived class throws it.

postfire

public boolean postfire()

Return true unless one of the branches was terminated during the execution of the fire() method.

Specified by:

postfire in interface Executable

Overrides:

postfire in class AtomicActor<TypedIOPort>

Returns:

True if another iteration can occur.
