All Implemented Interfaces:
IBox

public class Neighborhood_Box
extends Box

Input: one or several GraphElements

Output: empty collection, one or several incident / adjacent GraphElements of the input GraphElements (depending on the value of the parameter).

If the input is null, the output is null as well. null values in the input collection are passed on.

Method Detail

execute

public void execute()
             throws QueryExecutionException
Description copied from class: Box
Should be overridden and called first by subclasses. Throws InputNotSetException if the inputSet flag indicates the no input has been set for this box. May throw other QueryExecutionExceptions. The implementation of this abstract sets the output to be equal to the input.

Specified by:
execute in interface IBox
Overrides:
execute in class Box
QueryExecutionException
See Also:
IBox.execute()

getInputTypes

public int[] getInputTypes()
Description copied from class: Box
This implementation returns ONE element, the most general type. Override this method to specify more restricted types for the input(s) of the box. The size of the returned array must be consistent with the return value of getNumberOfInputs.

Specified by:
getInputTypes in interface IBox
Overrides:
getInputTypes in class Box
See Also:
IBox.getInputTypes()

getOutputTypes

public int[] getOutputTypes()
Description copied from class: Box
Override this method to specify more restricted types for the output(s) of the box. The size of the returned array must be consistent with the return value of getNumberOfOutputs. This implementation returns the same as a call to getInputTypes yields.

Specified by:
getOutputTypes in interface IBox
Overrides:
getOutputTypes in class Box
See Also:
IBox.getOutputTypes()

setInputs

public void setInputs(java.lang.Object[] inputs)
               throws InvalidInputException
Description copied from class: Box
Checks if the number of inputs is correct and sets the inputs. Subclasses probably will want to override this method to avoid many casts necessary when working with the input array. They should however first call this method (via super.setInputs(inputs)) so that consistency checks are done and some flags are correctly set.

Specified by:
setInputs in interface IBox
Overrides:
setInputs in class Box
InvalidInputException
See Also:
IBox.setInputs(java.lang.Object[])

getGraphicalRepresentation

public IBoxRepresentation getGraphicalRepresentation()
Description copied from class: Box
This implementation returns a new instance of DefaultBoxRepresentation. If your subclass has any parameters, you will probably have to design your own representation and override this method for example as follows: if (iBoxGRep == null || !(iBoxGRep instanceof MYOWNBOX_Rep)) { iBoxGRep = new MYOWNBOX_Rep(this); } return iBoxGRep;

Specified by:
getGraphicalRepresentation in interface IBox
Overrides:
getGraphicalRepresentation in class Box
