Quartz::CoupledModel

Defines the preferred event set for this particular class of coupled models. Specified event set will be used to coordinate childrens in all instances of this coupled model.

Writing:

class MyCoupled < CoupledModel
  event_set ladder_queue
end

Is the same as writing:

class MyCoupled < CoupledModel
  self.preferred_event_set = :ladder_queue
end

Or the same as:

class MyCoupled < CoupledModel; end

MyCoupled.preferred_event_set = :ladder_queue

The argument can be a string literal, a symbol literal or a plain name.

Defines default input ports for each of the given arguments. Those default input ports will be available in all instances, including instances of subclasses (meaning that ports are inherited).

Writing:

class MyModel < AtomicModel
  input port_name
end

Is the same as writing:

class MyModel < AtomicModel
  def initialize(name)
    super(name)
    add_input_port :port_name
  end
end

The arguments can be string literals, symbol literals or plain names. However, they will be converted to symbol literals when the model is instantiated.

class MyModel < AtomicModel
  input :in1, "in2", in3
end

Defines default output ports for each of the given arguments. Those default output ports will be available in all instances, including instances of subclasses (meaning that ports are inherited).

Writing:

class MyModel < AtomicModel
  output port_name
end

Is the same as writing:

class MyModel < AtomicModel
  def initialize(name)
    super(name)
    add_output_port :port_name
  end
end

The arguments can be string literals, symbol literals or plain names. However, they will be converted to symbols literals when the model is instantiated.

class MyModel < AtomicModel
  output :out1, "out2", out3
end
