public class LookUp
extends AbstractTransformer

Forwards the value associated with the key that the actor gets as input, using the specified lookup table from internal storage.

Input/output:
- accepts:
java.lang.String
- generates:
java.lang.String

Valid options are:

-D <int> (property: debugLevel)
    The greater the number the more additional info the scheme may output to 
    the console (0 = off).
    default: 0
    minimum: 0
 

-name <java.lang.String> (property: name)
    The name of the actor.
    default: LookUp
 

-annotation <adams.core.base.BaseText> (property: annotations)
    The annotations to attach to this actor.
    default: 
 

-skip (property: skip)
    If set to true, transformation is skipped and the input token is just forwarded 
    as it is.
 

-stop-flow-on-error (property: stopFlowOnError)
    If set to true, the flow gets stopped in case this actor encounters an error;
     useful for critical actors.
 

-storage-name <adams.flow.control.StorageName> (property: storageName)
    The name for the lookup table in the internal storage.
    default: lookup
 

-missing-key <NO_OUTPUT|OUTPUT_MISSING_VALUE|OUTPUT_KEY|CAUSE_ERROR> (property: missingKey)
    The behavior in case a lookup key is missing (ie not found in the lookup 
    table).
    default: NO_OUTPUT
 

-missing-value <java.lang.String> (property: missingValue)
    The value to forward if the missing key behavior is OUTPUT_MISSING_VALUE.
    default: ???
