Event
This class allows for the periodic generation of events similar to that achieved by "Create" modules in simulation languages. This class works in conjunction with the GeneratorActionIfc which is used to listen and react to the events that are generated by this class.
Parameters
the parent model element
The action supplies the generation logic for reacting to the generated event.
A RVariableIfc object that supplies both the time until the first and the time between events random variables.
A long that supplies the maximum number of events to generate. Each time an event is to be scheduled the maximum number of events is checked. If the maximum has been reached, then the generator is turned off. The default is Long.MAX_VALUE. This parameter cannot be Long.MAX_VALUE when the time until next always returns a value of 0.0
A double that supplies a time to stop generating events. When the generator is created, this variable is used to set the ending time of the generator. Each time an event is to be scheduled the ending time is checked. If the time of the next event is past this time, then the generator is turned off and the event won't be scheduled. The default is Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY.
the name of the generator
