Package drcl.comp

Interface Summary

ActiveComponent	Only components that implement this interface can be given an execution context to Component._start() when Component.run()ed.
Component.Locks	Data structure for holding all the locks and waiting threads in a component.
Handler	Defines interface for embedding a handler in a component, e.g., WrapperComponent.
RestartableComponent	An ActiveComponent that can be Component._start()ed for multiple times, that is, allows re-entrance of Component._start().
Wrapper	Defines interface for a component that wraps a non-component object.

Class Summary

ACARuntime	Defines the interface of an ACA runtime.
ACATimer	Defines a runtime task performed by a WorkerThread.
ARuntime	A realization of ACA runtime.
AWorkerThread
Component	Component is the base class for implementing components in the Autonomous Component Architecture (ACA).
ComponentBeanInfo	Defines JavaBeans properties for Component.
ComponentTemplate	This component provides skeleton codes for writing a component.
Contract	The base class for describing a contract.
ContractAny	The contract that matches any contract.
ContractMultiple	The class which wraps multiple contracts into one.
Extension	An extension is a component that behaves as part of other components in the sense that when data arrives at an extension, instead of a new thread is created to handle the data, the thread at the sending component carries over the component boundary.
ForkManager	Defines the base class that manages "fork" events for a component system.
LockPack	Data structure of a lock.
Message	The base class for implementing a message.
Port	The implementation of a port in the autonomous component architecture (ACA).
PortBeanInfo	Defines JavaBeans properties for Port.
Task	Defines a runtime task performed by a WorkerThread.
TaskFork	Defines the "fork" task.
TaskNotify	Defines the "notify" runtime task.
TaskReceive	Defines the "receive" task.
TaskSend	Defines the runtime "send" task performed by a WorkerThread.
TaskSpecial	Defines the "special" runtime task performed by a WorkerThread.
Util	Utilities to manipulate the "path" of a component/port.
Util.Link	The class describes a uni-directional connection between two ports.
Wire
WorkerThread	Carries out data processing at a component or special runtime tasks.
WrapperComponent	Component that wraps a non-component object.
