Action

Relations of important traits, enums and structs.

An action in the system is initially an UncodedAction that contains rich information about the action in a specific component. It is then encoded by an ActionEncoder into a CodedAction with an explanation of the action type.

Structs

Multiple

Multiple means the action is multi-dimensional, e.g. a sequence of actions.

Single

Single means the action is one-dimensional, e.g., one forwarding action from a port.

Traits

Action

Action trait represents an action of desired dimension. Use type parameter to distinguish the dimension of action.

ActionEncoder

Encoder and decoder between UncodedAction and CodedAction.

ActionType

Actions

Dimension

An empty trait that represents the type of action.

UncodedAction
