Method Detail

createActuator

Actuator createActuator(AffectManager manager)

Factory classes implement this interface to create an actuator in the migration process. Each actuator that is created when an agent migrates on to a platform, will require its own factory. The manager is passed to the actuator's constructor.

Parameters:

manager - the affect manager for the agent.

Returns:

an actuator that was created by the factory.
