void setActionCommand ( string   actionCommand)
virtualinherited

Sets the action command for this interactor.

The action command is meant to be a semi-unique string you can use to identify the interactor when events occur. For example, for buttons, the default action command is the button's text, but you can change it to a different string if you prefer. The main usage of this feature is if you want to use the same function as an event listener for many interactors, you can use the action command to help distinguish which interactor generates each event.
