Constructor Detail

BroadcastMessage

public BroadcastMessage(Lifeline caller,
                        Lifeline callee,
                        Diagram diagram,
                        MessageData data)

Method Detail

getAnswerMessage

public Answer getAnswerMessage()

Description copied from class: ForwardMessage

Returns the answer to this forward message, if there is one, otherwise null. If this is a forward message to an actor, there is no answer. Otherwise an AnswerMessage instance with the same MessageData attached is returned, so the answer found in this data is an appropriate label of an arrow representing the answer.

Overrides:

getAnswerMessage in class ForwardMessage

Returns:

the answer to this forward message, if there is one, otherwise null

setOtherCallees

public void setOtherCallees(Lifeline[] otherCallees)

This method must only be called for the last of messages belonging to a broadcast.

Parameters:

otherCallees - the other receivers (beside this.getCallee() of the broadcast)

updateView

public void updateView()

Description copied from class: Message

Creates some space on the diagram, so that the message arrow and its label can be drawn, then draws them and creates some more space. Changes the state of the diagram so that the effects of the message are reflected. When creating space, the lifelines that do not participate in the message must be drawn according to their current state (via Message.extendLifelines(int).

Overrides:

updateView in class ForwardMessage

isSynchronous

public boolean isSynchronous()

Description copied from class: Message

Returns true if at least one of the caller or callee is an actor.

Overrides:

isSynchronous in class Message

Returns:

true if at least one of the caller or callee is an actor
