Re: Remove event from a schedule

[Marcus G. Daniels]

OJ> It seems that I can't remove Action of a ConcurrentGroup. 

How are you acquiring this ConcurrentGroup?  The createActionTo$message
will have the side-effect of creating ActionConcurrent objects, but it
will return ActionTo objects.   For example, the program below works for me.

import swarm.activity.ScheduleImpl;
import swarm.activity.Schedule;
import swarm.activity.Activity;
import swarm.activity.ActionTo;
import swarm.objectbase.SwarmImpl;
import swarm.objectbase.Swarm;
import swarm.defobj.Zone;
import swarm.Selector;
import swarm.Globals;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Iterator;

abstract class Agent {
    public void step () {
        System.out.println ("step " + getClass ().getName () + " @ " +
                            Globals.env.getCurrentTime ());
    }
    public void stepA () {
        System.out.println ("stepA " + getClass ().getName () + " @ " +
                            Globals.env.getCurrentTime ());
    }
}

class Agent1 extends Agent { }
class Agent2 extends Agent { }

public class RemovalDemoList extends SwarmImpl {
    RemovalDemoList (Zone aZone) {
        super (aZone);
    }

    Schedule schedule;
    Agent1 agent1;
    Agent2 agent2;

    List actionList;

    public void clean () {
        Iterator iterator = actionList.iterator ();

        while (iterator.hasNext ()) {
            Object obj = iterator.next ();
            schedule.remove (obj);
        }
    }

    public Object buildObjects () {
        super.buildObjects ();

        agent1 = new Agent1 ();
        agent2 = new Agent2 ();

        return this;
    }

    public Object buildActions () {
        super.buildActions ();
        
        actionList = new LinkedList ();
        schedule = new ScheduleImpl (getZone (), false);
        
        try {
            Selector stepSel = new Selector (Agent.class, "step", false);
            Selector stepSela = new Selector (Agent.class, "stepA", false);
            Selector cleanSel = new Selector (getClass (), "clean", false);

            actionList.add 
                (schedule.at$createActionTo$message (0, agent1, stepSel));
            actionList.add
                (schedule.at$createActionTo$message (10, agent2, stepSel));
            schedule.at$createActionTo$message (10, this, cleanSel);
            actionList.add
                (schedule.at$createActionTo$message (100, agent1, stepSel));
            actionList.add
                (schedule.at$createActionTo$message (110, agent2, stepSel));
            actionList.add
               (schedule.at$createActionTo$message (110, agent2, stepSela));
            actionList.add
                (schedule.at$createActionTo$message (200, agent1, stepSel));
            actionList.add
                (schedule.at$createActionTo$message (210, agent2, stepSel));
            Globals.env.xfprint (schedule);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace (System.err);
            System.exit (1);
        }
        return this;
    }

    public Activity activateIn (Swarm swarmContext) {
        super.activateIn (swarmContext);

        schedule.activateIn (this);

        return getActivity ();
    }

    static void main (String args[]) {
        Globals.env.initSwarm ("RemovalDemoList", "0.0", "address@hidden",
                               args);

        RemovalDemoList demo = new RemovalDemoList (Globals.env.globalZone);
        
        demo.buildObjects ();
        demo.buildActions ();
        demo.activateIn (null).run ();
    }
}
