public class GeneratorDisplay

extends Generator

Generator subclass to generate text for display in diagrams in in text fields in the Argo/UML user interface. The generated code looks a lot like (invalid) Java. The idea is that other generators could be written for outher languages. This code is just a placeholder for future development, I expect it to be totally replaced.

generateMessageNumber

public java.lang.String generateMessageNumber(MMessage m)

Generates the textual number of MMessage m. The number is a string of numbers separated by points which describes the message's order and level in a collaboration.

If you plan to modify this number, make sure that ParserDisplay.parseMessage is adapted to the change.

Parameters:

Returns:

A String with the message number of m.

generateRecurrence

public java.lang.String generateRecurrence(java.lang.Object expr)

Generates a textual description of a MIterationExpression.

Parameters:

m - A MMessage to generate a description for.

Returns:

A String suitable to show in a collaboration diagram.

Textual description of the module.

getModuleAuthor

public java.lang.String getModuleAuthor()

getModuleVersion

public java.lang.String getModuleVersion()

getModuleKey

public java.lang.String getModuleKey()

inContext

public boolean inContext(java.lang.Object[] o)

Description copied from interface: Pluggable

A function which allows a plug-in to decide if it is available under a specific context. One example of a plugin with multiple criteria is the PluggableMenu. PluggableMenu requires the first context to be a JMenuItem which wants the PluggableMenu attached to as the context, so that it can determine that it would attach to a menu. The second context is an internal (non-localized) description of the menu such as "File" or "View" so that the plugin can further decide.

Specified by:

inContext in interface Pluggable

Overrides:

inContext in class Generator

Parameters:

o - An identification of the context. The interpretation of criteria is specific to the plug-in type, but must be consistent across that type. The plug-in must want to be exposed to all contexts.

Returns:

True if the plug-in wants to make itself available for this context, otherwise false.

See Also:

Pluggable.inContext(java.lang.Object[])

isModuleEnabled

public boolean isModuleEnabled()

Specified by:

isModuleEnabled in interface ArgoModule

Overrides:

isModuleEnabled in class Generator
