abstract class UserModuleDescription

extends DefaultNameSpaceDescription

implements ModuleFactory

A 'user module' is a module whose inner structure is accessible by the user (UDPs and modules). By contrast, standard primitives do not have an 'internal structure', and the links between ports are not made using intermediary DataHolders.
