Interface Controller
All Known Subinterfaces: CollectionController, ListenerController, TicklishController, TimeableController
public interface Controller
A Controller is an object that exerts some control over members of
a Space. The Controller interface defines a minimal requirement for
all Controllers - that is they are notified whenever they are added or
removed from a Space. No particular functionality or modus operandi
of a controller is assumed.
There are a number of interfaces that extend this interface that provide
a particular behaviour of the Controller - particularly in relationship
of the controller to its space. Those interfaces functionality
in terms of the requirements they have when they are added to a Space are
all supported in the SimpleSpace implementation. For example, TicklishControllers
provide a list of Ticklish objects that should be tickled by the Space's
Timer. When a TicklishController is added to the SimpleSpace the SimpleSpace
will tickle this controller.
The extension interfaces provide their own documentation for the actions
they require. The provided controller interfaces should provide a comprehensive
set of requirements for describing the interaction between controllers and
spaces.

Method Detail
addedToSpace
public void addedToSpace(Space s)
This method is called by the Space when a Controller is being addedTo the Space s.
If the Controller is not an appropriate controller for that kind of Space this
method can throw an exception and the controller won't be added to the Space.
Parameters:s - the Space being added to
removedFromSpace
public void removedFromSpace()
Called by the Space when a Controller is being removed
from a Space. This is only called by the Space on controllers that have
previously been added, thus the space they are being removed from
is the space they were added to.
