Class GetCommunicativeActProperty

java.lang.Object
  gov.nasa.arc.brahms.vm.api.jac.AbstractExternalActivity
      brahms.communication.GetCommunicativeActProperty

All Implemented Interfaces:

IExternalActivity

Direct Known Subclasses:

GetEnvelopePropertyActivity, GetPayloadPropertyActivity

public abstract class GetCommunicativeActProperty
extends AbstractExternalActivity

The GetCommunicativeActProperty activity allows a model builder to retrieve the value of a property in the belief set of a communicative act by passing an unbound variable and having it be assigned the value of the property in the envelope map or payload map of the communicative act.

This activity requires three parameters in the Brahms java activity declaration:

• CommunicativeAct communicativeAct (the communicative act from which to retrieve a property value)
• string key (the key for the property)
• an unbound variable

This activity will throw an ExternalException if:

• the value parameter is not an unbound variable.
• the type of the value keyed to the given key in the communicative acts belief set does not match the variable parameter type
• the communicative act has no belief in its property map for the given key.
