Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Action	eventOccurred(FieldSpacecraftState<T> s, FieldEventDetector<T> detector, boolean increasing)	Handle an event.
default void	init(FieldSpacecraftState<T> initialState, FieldAbsoluteDate<T> target, FieldEventDetector<T> detector)	Initialize event handler at the start of a propagation.
default FieldSpacecraftState<T>	resetState(FieldEventDetector<T> detector, FieldSpacecraftState<T> oldState)	Reset the state prior to continue propagation.

Method Detail

init

default void init(FieldSpacecraftState<T> initialState,
                  FieldAbsoluteDate<T> target,
                  FieldEventDetector<T> detector)

Initialize event handler at the start of a propagation.

This method is called once at the start of the propagation. It may be used by the event handler to initialize some internal data if needed.

The default implementation does nothing

Parameters:

initialState - initial state

target - target date for the propagation

detector - event detector related to the event handler

Since:

11.1

eventOccurred

Action eventOccurred(FieldSpacecraftState<T> s,
                     FieldEventDetector<T> detector,
                     boolean increasing)

Handle an event.

Parameters:

s - SpaceCraft state to be used in the evaluation

detector - object with appropriate type that can be used in determining correct return state

increasing - with the event occurred in an "increasing" or "decreasing" slope direction

Returns:

the Action that the calling detector should pass back to the evaluation system

resetState

default FieldSpacecraftState<T> resetState(FieldEventDetector<T> detector,
                                           FieldSpacecraftState<T> oldState)

Reset the state prior to continue propagation.

This method is called after the step handler has returned and before the next step is started, but only when eventOccurred(org.orekit.propagation.FieldSpacecraftState<T>, org.orekit.propagation.events.FieldEventDetector<T>, boolean) has itself returned the Action.RESET_STATE indicator. It allows the user to reset the state for the next step, without perturbing the step handler of the finishing step. If the eventOccurred(org.orekit.propagation.FieldSpacecraftState<T>, org.orekit.propagation.events.FieldEventDetector<T>, boolean) never returns the Action.RESET_STATE indicator, this function will never be called, and it is safe to simply return null.

The default implementation simply return its argument.

Parameters:

detector - object with appropriate type that can be used in determining correct return state

oldState - old state

Returns:

new state
