<br>
In Java, the fully qualified classname must be unique. There is
some magic that can be done with different class loaders and such,
but in general, and in Kepler and Ptolemy, the fully qualified
classname will be unique. The fully qualified classname includes
the package, So, ptolemy.actor.lib.StringConstant is one actor.
There can be another actor,
ptolemy.actor.lib.mypackage.StringConstant. Both actors could be
used in a model.<br>
<br>
Note that Kepler has actor oriented classes (see
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/publications/papers/07/classesandInheritance/index.htm">http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/publications/papers/07/classesandInheritance/index.htm</a>).
The quick summary of actor oriented classes is that they are
chunks of functionality implemented as Ptolemy models that can be
reused by instantiation or subclassing. The Sinewave actor is an
actor-oriented class. When you are calling
parameter.getContainer().getClassName(), you are getting the
className which may or may not be the same as the Java class name.<br>
<br>
Probably the method that is being called is in
ptolemy/kernel/util/NamedObj.java:<br>
<blockquote type="cite"> /** Return the MoML class name. This
is either
the
<br>
* class of which this object is an instance, or if
this <br>
* object is itself a class, then the class that it
extends. <br>
* By default, it will be the Java class name of this
object. <br>
* This method never returns
null.
<br>
* @return The MoML class
name.
<br>
* @see
MoMLExportable
<br>
* @see
#setClassName(String)
<br>
*/<br>
@Override<br>
public String getClassName() {<br>
if (_className == null) {<br>
_className = getClass().getName();<br>
}<br>
<br>
return _className;<br>
}<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
_className is set when instantiating clones for actor-oriented
classes.<br>
<br>
<br>
To get the last part of the fully qualified classname, see the
lastIndexOf() method in the java.lang.String class:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#lastIndexOf-int">https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#lastIndexOf-int</a>-<br>
<br>
However, I think you just want to call NamedObj.getName():
parameter.getContainer().getName() should do the trick.<br>

<div>In ActorReference.pdf file, there are explanations of each
actors. I have questions for this reference.</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>I can see the class name next to an actor. For example,
String Constant (ptolemy.actor.lib.StringConst). The class
name must be unique (i.e., ptolemy.actor.lib.StringConst).
If so, is the last classname unique? In other words,
"StringConst" is also unique?</li>
<li>I can see the value of "StringConst" in _container in
parameter class. How can I just extract only last name
"StringConst"? Actually, I have tried several ways in
SQLRecording.java like below:</li>
<ul>
<li> System.out.println("3: " +
parameter.getContainer().toplevel().toString());</li>
<li> System.out.println("4: " +
parameter.getContainer().getClassName());</li>
<li> System.out.println("5: " + parameter.getContainer());</li>
</ul>
</ul>
</div>
<blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px">
<div>The output is :</div>
</blockquote>
<div>
<ul>
<ul>
<li>3: ptolemy.actor.TypedCompositeActor {.Unnamed1}</li>
<li>4: ptolemy.actor.lib.StringConst</li>
<li>5: ptolemy.actor.lib.StringConst
