Ah, I see. In this case, the plugin_jpf.xml is better. As for where to put it etc. I think the following should work although I haven't tested it in a long time.
1. Put the plugin_jpf.xml in the scenario directory.
2. Add the following to your scenario.xml file:
<model.plugin_jpf file="plugin_jpf.xml" />
If that doesn't work then you need to make sure that the plugin_jpf.xml file is found by the plugin mechanism. It may search your model code classpath, but I can't remember for sure. At any rate, the boot.properties file in repast.simphony.runtime contains a property that specifies where to look for the jpf plugin files, so you can add to that so that your plugin jpf is included.

Nick,
Thanks for the tip. I am currently using that approach for adding Controller Actions. My question was more about specifying a "composite.action" for adding a parent controller action. (I realize now that the subject in my previous mail was a bit ambiguous.) Can a composite action also be added from the ModelInitializer? Thanks again.

Subject: Re: [Repast-interest] How to add a Composite controller action
Raj,
An easier way to to add a controller action is using a
repast.simphony.scenario.ModelInitializer. This is a bit of code that's run just after the scenario loads. You can use it to inject actions into the scenario tree. Here's an example:
public class Initializer implements ModelInitializer {
public void initialize(Scenario scen, RunEnvironmentBuilder builder) {
scen.addMasterControllerAction(new NullAbstractControllerAction() {
@Override
public void runInitialize(RunState runState, final Context context, Parameters params) {
// the code in here will be executed during run initialization.
}
}
public String toString() {
// This name will show up in the action tree
return "Action Name";
}
});
}
You need to add the ModelInitializer to the scenario.xml file.
<Scenario>
...
<model.initializer class="fully qualified name of the initializer class" />
</Scenario>
If you really want to go the plugin_jpf.xml route, I can explain that more fully as well.

Hi,
I am trying to add a Composite Action into the controller tree. Understand from the Reference that these have to be specified in a plugin.xml file. I am new to the Java plugin framework. My questions are:
1. Should the file name be plugin_jpf.xml or plugin.xml? Or is that irrelevant?
2. In which directory should this xml file be placed?
3. Would this xml file be discovered automatically or do I need to specify something in my Repast model (such as the Scenario.xml file)
Thank you in advance for your clarifications.
Raj
