SymbolicVariableActivity

public SymbolicVariableActivity(ConstraintSolver cs,
                                int id,
                                ConstraintSolver[] internalSolvers,
                                Variable[] internalVars)

Method Detail

setSymbolicDomain

public void setSymbolicDomain(java.lang.String... symbols)

createInternalConstraints

protected Constraint[] createInternalConstraints(Variable[] variables)

Description copied from class: MultiVariable

This method must be implemented to define the internal lower-level Constraints of this MultiVariable.

Specified by:

createInternalConstraints in class MultiVariable

Parameters:

variables - The internal variables among which the Constraints should be defined.

Returns:

The internal lower-level Constraints of this MultiVariable.

setDomain

public void setDomain(Domain d)

Description copied from class: Variable

Set the domain of this variable. Must be implemented by the ConstraintSolver developer, since setting the domain of a variable may be a non-trivial operation.

Specified by:

setDomain in class Variable

Parameters:

d - The domain of the variable.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Description copied from class: Variable

Get a String representation of this Variable.

Specified by:

toString in class Variable

Returns:

A String representation of this Variable.

compareTo

public int compareTo(Variable arg0)

Specified by:

compareTo in interface java.lang.Comparable<Variable>

getSymbolicVariable

public SymbolicVariable getSymbolicVariable()

Returns:

The SymbolicVariable representing the symbolic value of this SymbolicVariableActivity.

getTemporalVariable

public AllenInterval getTemporalVariable()

Specified by:

getTemporalVariable in interface Activity

Returns:

The AllenInterval representing the temporal value of this SymbolicVariableActivity.

getVariable

public Variable getVariable()

Specified by:

getVariable in interface Activity

getSymbols

public java.lang.String[] getSymbols()

Specified by:

getSymbols in interface Activity

Returns:

A description of this Activity's symbolic variable.
