Interface DependencyIF

All Known Implementing Classes:

DependencyAdapter, DependencyThread

public interface DependencyIF

This interface is implemented by a dependency, i.e. a class that does the update of an mmobject depending on another. It is usually added in the InteractivityIF.dependsOn(net.mumie.mathletfactory.mmobject.MMObjectIF, net.mumie.mathletfactory.action.updater.DependencyIF) method of the dependant ('slave') mmobject. For implementing this interface note that all three methods will be called, so overriding one of the doUpdate methods will suffice.
