Environment Component

Environment Component

The Environment component is the root of all the components in the component tree. It provides a "package" into which the child components of a simulation can be put. You cannot manually add or delete the Environment component. One is provided for you automatically in the project pane. The environment components defines the compilation environment for your Repast Py project.

Parent Component

None. The environment component is the top level component and thus has no parent.
