boolean	checkAuthority(java.lang.String agent, AbsPrimitive attempter, AbsAggregate attempterAddresses, Performative perf)
(package private) void	debug(java.lang.String str)
void	exec(AgentContext context)
java.lang.String	getDescriptions(DF_Description toMatch) returns a string that contains the df_descriptions that are matches for this df_description.
private java.lang.String	getServiceName(Performative msg)
void	handleDeregister(Performative perf)
void	handleModify(Performative perf)
void	handleRegister(Performative perf) method for handleing a registration message to the df

void	informDone(Performative perf)
private boolean	inServiceList(java.lang.String name)
static void	main(java.lang.String[] param)
DF_Description	makeDescription(AbsConcept act)
void	sendAgree(Performative perf) make an "agree" response in SL
void	serviceDescriptionReceived(Performative perf) this is a message that is likely to have the name of the task in it
void	simpleReply(Performative inPerf, java.lang.String reason, java.lang.String replyType) simpleReply lets you reply to a message using the result convention of FIPA what I mean is: in FIPA there are alot of messages like "refuse original reason" or "not_understood original reason", and this method lets you send them pretty simply
