Interface MoleculeHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:

AddMoleculeToGraph, AddMoleculeToIndex, MoleculeToString, MoleculeToText, MoleculeToTripleIterator

public interface MoleculeHandler

These methods are called as the MoleculeTraverser traverses a molecule. For a given molecule: _1 p _2, _1 p _3, _2 p o. First handleTriple is called with both the first triple (_1 p _2). Next, handleStartContainsMolecules is called which has the set of molecules (one molecule that contains _1 p _3). Then, handleTriple is called with _1 p _3. Then handleEndContainsMolecules is called with the same set of molecules. And so on...

Method Summary

void	handleEmptyMolecules() The is called instead of handleStart/End contains molecules when the triple visited does not contain any submolecules.
void	handleEndContainsMolecules(Set<Molecule> newMolecules) This is called when the top level triple's submolecules have all been visited.
void	handleStartContainsMolecules(Set<Molecule> newMolecules) This is called when the current top level triple contains a set of submolecules.
void	handleTriple(Triple triple) A triple in the root set of triples is found.

Method Detail

handleTriple

void handleTriple(Triple triple)

A triple in the root set of triples is found.

Parameters:

triple - the triple found.

handleEmptyMolecules

void handleEmptyMolecules()

The is called instead of handleStart/End contains molecules when the triple visited does not contain any submolecules.

handleStartContainsMolecules

void handleStartContainsMolecules(Set<Molecule> newMolecules)

This is called when the current top level triple contains a set of submolecules.

Parameters:

newMolecules - the submolecules belonging to the top level triple.

handleEndContainsMolecules

void handleEndContainsMolecules(Set<Molecule> newMolecules)

This is called when the top level triple's submolecules have all been visited.

Parameters:

newMolecules - the submolecules belonging to the top level triple.
