[Ayoub Charef]

Hello ,

I am trying to   use the bootstrap for launching an agent  from a Java Program and i need to send some parametres  to my agent ,but i don't know how to get it .

this is my code 

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args)

{

SREBootstrap bootstrap = SRE.getBootstrap();

    try {

    bootstrap.startAgent(Interface.class);

       /* start an agent with parametres sned value="Up" */

    bootstrap.startAgent(CarAgent.class,"Up");

} catch (Exception e) {

// TODO Auto-generated catch block

e.printStackTrace();

}

}

}

agent CarAgent 

{

uses CarCapacity, Schedules

//______ my position ____

on Initialize 

{

// how can i get this params ="Up"

setSkill(new CarsSkills)

createbody(posX, posY, "Up")

every(50)

[

posY =posY+2

move(posX, posY, "Up")

]

}

on Destroy 

{

}

}

Dear Ayoub.

Within the "Initialize" event handler, you could have access to the instance of the event with the "occurrence" keyword.

The "Initialize" event contains a field, named "parameters" that contains all the parameters provided when creating the agent.

The list of parameters in the event is of type "List<Object>". It means that you will have certainly to cast the value.

The result code of your agent becomes:

agent CarAgent {

   uses CarCapacity, Schedules

   //______ my position ____

   on Initialize {

        // how can i get this params ="Up"

       val param = occurrence.parameters.get(0) as String

        setSkill(new CarsSkills)

        createbody(posX, posY, param)

       every(50) [
            posY =posY+2

           move(posX, posY, param)

       ]

   }

    on Destroy {

   }

}
