All Implemented Interfaces:

Control

public class WireByMethod
extends WireGraph

Takes a Linkable protocol and adds connections using an arbitrary method. No connections are removed. The connections are added by an arbitrary method that can be specified in the configuration. The properties the method has to fulfill are the following

• It MUST be static
• It MUST have a first argument that can be assigned from a class that implements Graph.
• It MAY contain zero or more arguments following the first one.
• All the arguments after the first one MUST be of primitive type int, long or double, except the last one, which MAY be of type that can be assigned from java.util.Random

The arguments are initialized using the configuration as follows.

• The first argument is the Graph that is passed to wire(peersim.graph.Graph).
• The arguments after the first one (indexed as 1,2,etc) are initialized from configuration parameters of the form "arg"i, where i is the index.
• If the last argument can be assigned from java.util.Random then it is initialized with CommonState.r, the central source of randomness for the simulator.

For example, the class WireWS can be emulated by configuring

 init.0 WireByMethod
 init.0.class GraphFactory
 init.0.method wireWS
 init.0.arg1 10
 init.0.arg2 0.1
 ...
 

Note that the "class" parameter defaults to GraphFactory, and "method" defaults to "wire".
