All Implemented Interfaces:

CSProcess

public class Skip
extends Guard
implements CSProcess

This is a process that immediately terminates and a Guard that is always ready.

Description

Skip is a process that starts, engages in no events, performs no computation and terminates.

It can also be used as a Guard in an Alternative that is always ready. This makes it useful for polling a set of guards to test if any are ready: include it as the last element of the guard array and priSelect.

Note: the process is also included for completeness – it is one of the fundamental primitives of CSP, where it is a unit of sequential composition and parallel interleaving. In JCSP, it is a unit of Sequence, Parallel and PriParallel .
