Class AgentState

java.lang.Object
  cz.cuni.amis.pogamut.base.agent.state.impl.AgentState

All Implemented Interfaces:

IAgentState, Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

AgentStateDebug, AgentStateFailed, AgentStateFailing, AgentStateInstantiated, AgentStatePaused, AgentStatePausing, AgentStateResumed, AgentStateResuming, AgentStateStarted, AgentStateStartedPaused, AgentStateStarting, AgentStateStartingPaused, AgentStateStopped, AgentStateStopping

public abstract class AgentState
extends Object
implements IAgentState, Serializable

Wrapper for the AgentState adding additional String information that provides more details about the agent state.

WARNING: equals() defined according to it'description as well only!

Note that we can not assume which state the agent may find itself in, so we will use a Java object hierarchy to represent it. We provide a set of interfaces that may extend each other to provide the information about the state, e.g. the state may be only but we may create also interface that extends thus allowing other objects to know, that means that agent is healthy because that is what state declares.
