  +--physis.core.RemoteDigitalOrganism

All Implemented Interfaces:

DigitalOrganism

public class RemoteDigitalOrganism

extends java.lang.Object

implements DigitalOrganism

This class represents a remote digital organism. It accesses a remote DigitalOrganism object through a socket via the Digital Organism Transfer Protocol (DOTP). If the socket breaks down it uses a local reference. Each methods defiened in the DigitalOrganism interface simply delegates the operations to a remote proxy. Actually it communicates with a DigitalOrganismProxy.

Field Summary

protected java.io.BufferedReader	in
protected int	index The index of the remote digital organism.
protected DigitalOrganism	localRef If the connection breaks down this local reference shoud be used.
protected java.io.PrintWriter	out
protected java.net.Socket	socket The socket used for the DOTP commmunication with a remote Digital Org proxy.

Constructor Summary

RemoteDigitalOrganism(int index_, java.net.Socket socket_, java.io.BufferedReader in_, java.io.PrintWriter out_, DigitalOrganism local_ref)

RemoteDigitalOrganism

public RemoteDigitalOrganism(int index_,
                             java.net.Socket socket_,
                             java.io.BufferedReader in_,

Method Detail

vivify

public void vivify(DigitalOrganism neighbour_,
                   GeneticCodeTape codetape,
                   int inherited_length)

Description copied from interface: DigitalOrganism

Makes the organism to be alive. (Fills the vital parts.) This operation should entirely reset the organism's state.

Specified by:

vivify in interface DigitalOrganism

Following copied from interface: physis.core.DigitalOrganism

Parameters:

neighbour_ - The organism to which this is facing.

codetape - The new seed.

inherited_length - The newly born organism inherits the parent's effective length. (This is a trick: the newly born organism should have some reasonable value in order to survive. In the next update after it's born the effective length is recalculated.

kill

public void kill()
