Description

The Demultiplexer class is a process which has an infinite loop that waits for an Integer to be sent down the in Channel, upon receiving an Integer it will then wait for an Object of any type to be sent down the in Channel. The Integer will be used as an index to the out Channels array, the Object will then be written down this Channel.

This Process is used to convert the single stream of Objects sent from the Multiplexer Process down the in Channel back to individual Channels.

Channel Protocols

Input Channels
in java.lang.Integer,java.lang.Object The in Channel has a Integer sent down followed by an Object of any type.
Output Channels
out java.lang.Object The out Channel writes the Object written as the second Object down the in Channel.
