Method Detail

setup

protected void setup()

Description copied from class: Agent

This protected method is an empty placeholder for application specific startup code. Agent developers can override it to provide necessary behaviour. When this method is called the agent has been already registered with the Agent Platform AMS and is able to send and receive messages. However, the agent execution model is still sequential and no behaviour scheduling is active yet. This method can be used for ordinary startup tasks such as DF registration, but is essential to add at least a Behaviour object to the agent, in order for it to be able to do anything.

Overrides:

setup in class Agent

See Also:

Agent.addBehaviour(Behaviour b), Behaviour

takeDown

protected void takeDown()

Description copied from class: Agent

This protected method is an empty placeholder for application specific cleanup code. Agent developers can override it to provide necessary behaviour. When this method is called the agent has not deregistered itself with the Agent Platform AMS and is still able to exchange messages with other agents. However, no behaviour scheduling is active anymore and the Agent Platform Life Cycle state is already set to deleted. This method can be used for ordinary cleanup tasks such as DF deregistration, but explicit removal of all agent behaviours is not needed.

Overrides:

takeDown in class Agent
