Interface IStateCoderFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

SimpleStateCoderFactory, TheStateCoderFactory

public interface IStateCoderFactory

Interface for a factory class that creates instances of IStateCoder objects. This is required because state coders have to be created on-demand if the design space exploration process decides that a new thread is to be spawned. Since each thread requires it's own working model instance and a state coder is linked to the underlying model, a new IStateCoder needs to be created per processing thread.
