java.lang.Objectsim.engine.SimState
public class SimState
SimState represents the simulation proper. Your simulations generally will contain one top-level object which subclasses from SimState.
A SimState contains the random number generator and the simulator's schedule. You should not change the schedule to another Schedule object.
When a simulation is begun, SimState's start() method is called. Then the schedule is stepped some N times. Last, the SimState's finish() method is called, and the simulation is over.
SimStates are serializable; if you wish to be able to checkpoint your simulation and read from checkpoints, you should endeavor to make all objects in the simulation serializable as well. Prior to serializing to a checkpoint, preCheckpoint() is called. Then after serialization, postCheckpoint() is called. When a SimState is loaded from a checkpoint, awakeFromCheckpoint() is called to give you a chance to make any adjustments. SimState also implements several methods which call these methods and then serialize the SimState to files and to streams.
SimState also maintains a private registry of AsynchronousSteppable objects (such as YoYoYo), and handles pausing and resuming them during the checkpointing process, and killing them during finish() in case they had not completed yet.
If you override any of the methods foo() in SimState, should remember to always call super.foo() for any such method foo().

SimState(long seed)
Creates a SimState with a new random number generator initialized to the given seed, plus a new, empty schedule. |
|
SimState(MersenneTwisterFast random)
Creates a SimState with a new, empty Schedule and the provided random number generator. |
|
SimState(MersenneTwisterFast random,
Schedule schedule)
Creates a SimState with the provided random number generator and schedule. |
Method Summary | |
---|---|
boolean |
addToAsynchronousRegistry(AsynchronousSteppable stop)
Registers an AsynchronousSteppable to get its pause() method called prior to checkpointing, its resume() method to be called after checkpointing or recovery, and its stop() method to be called at finish() time. |
AsynchronousSteppable[] |
asynchronousRegistry()
Returns all the AsynchronousSteppable items presently in the registry. |
void |
awakeFromCheckpoint()
Called after the SimState was created by reading from a checkpointed object. |
static void |
doLoop(java.lang.Class c,
java.lang.String[] args)
Calls doLoop(MakesSimState,args), passing in a MakesSimState which creates SimStates of the provided Class c, using the constructor new |
static void |
doLoop(MakesSimState generator,
java.lang.String[] args)
A convenient top-level loop for the simulation command-line. |
void |
finish()
Called either at the proper or a premature end to the simulation. |
long |
job()
Returns the job number set by the doLoop(...) facility. |
void |
kill()
A Steppable on the schedule can call this method to cancel the simulation. |
void |
postCheckpoint()
Called just after the SimState was checkpointed (serialized out to a file to be unserialized and fired up at a future time). |
void |
preCheckpoint()
Called just before the SimState is being checkpointed (serialized out to a file to be unserialized and fired up at a future time). |
static SimState |
readFromCheckpoint(java.io.File file)
Creates a SimState from checkpoint. |
static SimState |
readFromCheckpoint(java.io.InputStream stream)
Creates and returns a new SimState object read in from the provided stream. |
void |
removeFromAsynchronousRegistry(AsynchronousSteppable stop)
Unregisters an AsynchronousSteppable from the asynchronous registry. |
void |
setRandom(MersenneTwisterFast random)
|
void |
start()
Called immediately prior to starting the simulation, or in-between simulation runs. |
static double |
version()
|
SimState |
writeToCheckpoint(java.io.File file)
Writes the state to a checkpoint and returns the state. |
void |
writeToCheckpoint(java.io.OutputStream stream)
Serializes out the SimState, and the entire simulation state (not including the graphical interfaces) to the provided stream. |

public boolean addToAsynchronousRegistry(AsynchronousSteppable stop)
An AsynchronousSteppable cannot be added multiple times to the same registry -- if it's there it's there. Returns false if the AsynchronousSteppable could not be added, either because the simulation is stopped or in the process of finish()ing.
