Constructor Detail

Transient

public Transient(java.lang.String name)

Creates a Transient Node. Nothing is intialized by default.

Parameters:

name - The name of the node.

Method Detail

getMaxNumOfStages

public int getMaxNumOfStages()

Returns the maximum number of stages for this node.

Returns:

The maximum number of stages for this node.

setMaxNumOfStages

public void setMaxNumOfStages(int s)

Sets the maximum number of stages for this node.

Parameters:

s - The new maximum number of stages.

getCurrentStage

public int getCurrentStage()

Returns the current stage of this node. Should be between 0 maximum number of stages.

Returns:

The current stage.

setCurrentStage

public void setCurrentStage(int s)

Sets the current stage to the integer given. If the current stage value is greater than the maximum number of stages allowed, then it is trimmed to simply be the maximum number of stages.

Parameters:

s - The new current stage.
