Splitter
=========

The Splitter is a default node implementation from CCA and implements a
:ref:`skeletons`. It has one input port and an arbitrary number of output ports.
The splitter tries to split an incoming :ref:`Data Transfer Object <dto>` (DTO)
into one-dimensional DTOs of the same type.

A splitter has the DTO type given as template argument and
:ref:`Port-Triggered <procstrat>` as its default processing strategy. The
splitter will check, that the dimension of the incoming DTO agrees with the
number of output ports.
