April 2024 - This site, and Kamaelia are being updated. There is significant work needed, and PRs are welcome.

Kamaelia.Util.Comparator.Comparator

For examples and more explanations, see the module level docs.

class Comparator(Axon.Component.component)

Comparator() -> new Comparator component.

Compares items received on "inA" inbox with items received on "inB" inbox. For each pair, outputs True if items compare equal, otherwise False.

Inboxes

control : NOT USED
inbox : NOT USED
inB : Source 'B' of items to compare
inA : Source 'A' of items to compare

Outboxes

outbox : Result of comparison
signal : NOT USED

Methods defined here

Warning!

You should be using the inbox/outbox interface, not these methods (except construction). This documentation is designed as a roadmap as to their functionalilty for maintainers and new component developers.

combine(self, valA, valB)

Returns result of (valA == valB)

Reimplement this method to change the type of comparison from equality testing.

mainBody(self)

Main loop body.
