java.lang.Object
  com.agentfactory.cldc.scheduler.AgentRunnable
      com.agentfactory.cldc.MIDletRunnable

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable, javax.microedition.lcdui.CommandListener

public class MIDletRunnable
extends AgentRunnable
implements javax.microedition.lcdui.CommandListener

This class provides the debugging interface functionality for MIDP environments and enables the developer to view an agent's mental state at run time. It provides functionaity to enable the developer to stop an agent, start an agent, and step a cycle of the agent's control process.
