Hi Ketan, That document is very old now. All of the documentation is now in the actor moml files in the src/actors directory and can be accessed via the canvas of kepler. I would recommend you try one of our nightly builds available here: http://www.kepler-project.org/nightly/zip/
We're hoping to have a release in the next couple months but we don't have a definite date yet. chad Ketan Maheshwari wrote: > Hi Chad > Is this the latest version of documentation: > http://rainbow.polytech.unice.fr/~ketan/files/Actor_Docs_for_Users_In_Progress.pdf > > > If so, I find many actors description ambiguous or not available.
