Documentation

			The event type is an XML element describing ALMA events and channels. 
			What this element does is tell the simulator framework that a given event type on a 
			given channel should be sent out using:
			1. A block of Python code existing within this element where the last line 
			corresponds to an event. An example could be something similar to:

joe = FRIDGE.temperatureDataEvent(7L)
joe

			2. A random instance of the event type generated by the simulator framework.
			
			Event also allows end-users to send events on a given frequency. Finally,
			an attribute exists which allows setting the probability that the event will not be 
			sent at all.
			

Properties

This component is not nillable.

Model

  Channel = xs:string
  Frequency = xs:float : 0
  ID = xs:string>

Channel

Name of the channel we will send events to. For example, "SCHEDULING_CHANNEL".

Type:

xs:string

Use:

required

Form:

unqualified

Frequency

The floating point number of seconds the simulator framework should wait before sending an event after the previous event. The default value of 0 implies the framework should only send one event and then stop.

Type:

based on
with :

Default:

0

Use:

optional

Form:

unqualified

ID

The IDL id of the ALMA event we will send an event to. For example, "IDL:alma/FRIDGE/temperatureDataEvent:1.0". If the event element contains some text, the simulator framework will not create a random instance of this event but will instead evaluate the element's text to produce the event.

Type:

xs:string

Use:

required

Form:

unqualified
