Hi,

1) NO

2) Agent persistency is currently in an experimental phase. the write(), read() and restore()methods already provide the basic mechanism, but I suspect you can't fruitfully use them at present. The idea is that
- The restore() method should be called in the agent setup()
- The read() method should be called by another already active agent A to start an agent B whose state was previosly saved using the write() method.

In next release everything should work properly. If you need this functionality in advance however and you are willing to implement it yourself we would be glad to integrate your modification.

Bye

Giovanni

hello,

-when saving an agent state by using the write method, would this save the
agent's message queue as well, or do i need to implement my own message queue
saving capability?

- i checked the agent's restore method, and it was not implemented! how do i
restore my agent state? if i am going to use the agent's read method, where do
i need to call it? at the agent's setup??

thanks
yomna
