mgui.models.networks.components.AbstractNetworkComponent

All Implemented Interfaces:: java.lang.Cloneable, java.lang.Comparable<DynamicModelComponent>, AttributeListener, AttributeObject, InterfaceObject, NamedObject, TreeObject, CleanableObject, DynamicModelComponent, TimeStepListener, Updateable

Direct Known Subclasses:: AbstractNeuroComponent

public abstract class AbstractNetworkComponent
extends AbstractInterfaceObject
implements DynamicModelComponent, AttributeObject, AttributeListener, TreeObject, InterfaceObject

Abstract generic class for neuro model components to inherit. Contains two lists, one for events and one for connections. This class forces an implementation of clone() by its subclasses; as a general policy clones of model components should ensure that components states are also preserved in a clone.

All subclasses of this class should add its parameters as Attributes. These parameters should have their own get and set methods implemented. Primitives should be wrapped by instances of arNumber (java wrappers such as Integer are fine too, but do not allow their values to be dynamically changed...)

Variables (e.g., clock) should be declared as individual class members.
