I have an actor that uses the structure of a file generated at runtime to create an output record. The actor is working, but I have a few questions on ObjectToRecord since it is similar.
In ObjectToRecord, it does not change the type and lists it as fixme. The documentation for RecordType mentions using setTypeAtMost(new RecordType(new String[0], new Type[0])) when you want to specify a record without specifying the fields. Should I use that? Is there a better way to specify it is a record and the field names/types are discovered at runtime? Since unknown matches that type constraint, what is the best way to handle this? ObjectToRecord doesn't try to convert between standard Java types and Ptolemy types. I noticed there is a ptolemy.data.expr.ConversionUtilities, but it looks limited to the expression language needs. Is there another conversion in Kepler? _______________________________________________ Kepler-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nceas.ucsb.edu/kepler/mailman/listinfo/kepler-dev
