Properties  

exceptionsactor.t[4060]

A list of topics we don't want this DefaultTopic to match, so matching can fall through to another topic database to handle it (thereby facilitating the common handling of some topics across ActorStates).

matchObjOVERRIDDENactor.t[4033]
A DefaultTopic matches any Thing or Topic or yes or no

matchScoreOVERRIDDENactor.t[4039]
A DefaultTopic has a very low matchScore to allow anything more specific to take precedence.

Methods  

avoidMatching (top)actor.t[4068]

Do we want to avoid this DefaultTopic matching top, so that it can be matched elsewhere? By default we do so if top is listed in our exceptions.

matchTopic (top)OVERRIDDENactor.t[4046]
Don't match this DefaultTopic if top is one of the topics we want to avoid matching. Otherwise carry out the inherited handling.
