Description

The Successor class is a process which has an infinite loop that waits a Object of type Number to be sent down the in Channel. The process then adds one to the intValue() of the Number then writes the result as a new Integer down the out Channel.

Channel Protocols

Input Channels
in java.lang.Number The Channel can accept data from any subclass of Number.All values will be converted to ints.
Output Channels
out java.lang.Integer The output will always be of type Integer.

Example

The following example shows how to use the Successor process in a small program. The program also uses some of the other building block processes. The program generates a sequence of numbers and adds one to them and prints this on the screen. 
 import jcsp.lang.*;
 import jcsp.util.*;
 public class SuccessorExample {
   public static void main(String[] argv) {
     Channel a = new One2OneChannel();
     Channel b = new One2OneChannel();
     new Parallel(new CSProcess[] {
       new Nos(a),
       new Successor(a, b),
       new Printer(b)
     }).run();
   }
 }
