Class AbstractOrientedForest

java.lang.Object

com.phoenixst.plexus.AbstractOrientedForest

All Implemented Interfaces:

OrientedForest

Direct Known Subclasses:

DefaultOrientedForestView, DepthFirstForestView, DepthFirstTreeView

public abstract class AbstractOrientedForest
extends Object
implements OrientedForest

This class provides a skeletal implementation of the OrientedForest interface, to minimize the effort required to implement this interface.

All concrete extensions of this class must implement the following methods:

• getParentEdge( node )
• childTraverser( node )
• rootNodes()

The documentation for each non-abstract method in this class describes its implementation in detail. Each of these methods may be overridden if there is a more efficient implementation.

Creates a new AbstractOrientedForest.

Method Detail

getParent

public Object getParent(Object node)

Gets the parent of the specified node, or null if it doesn't have one. If the graph may contain a null node, then getParentEdge( node ) must be used to distinguish the two cases.

Specified by:

getParent in interface OrientedForest

isForestEdge

public boolean isForestEdge(Graph.Edge edge)

Gets whether or not the specified edge is a forest edge.

Specified by:

isForestEdge in interface OrientedForest

getParentEndpoint

public Object getParentEndpoint(Graph.Edge edge)

Returns the parent endpoint of the specified forest edge. If the specified edge is not a forest edge, throws an IllegalArgumentException.

Specified by:

getParentEndpoint in interface OrientedForest

getRoot

public Object getRoot(Object node)

Gets the root of the subgraph containing the specified node.

Specified by:

getRoot in interface OrientedForest

isLeaf

public boolean isLeaf(Object node)

Returns true if the specified node has no children.

Specified by:

isLeaf in interface OrientedForest

isAncestor

public boolean isAncestor(Object ancestor,
                 Object descendant)

Returns true if ancestor is actually an ancestor of descendant.

Specified by:

isAncestor in interface OrientedForest

getLeastCommonAncestor

public Object getLeastCommonAncestor(Object aNode,
                            Object bNode)

Returns the least common ancestor of the specified nodes, or null if none exists. If the graph may contain a null node, then some other method must be used to distinguish the two cases.

Specified by:

getLeastCommonAncestor in interface OrientedForest

getDepth

public int getDepth(Object node)

Gets the depth of the specified node.

Specified by:

getDepth in interface OrientedForest

getHeight

public int getHeight(Object node)

Gets the height of the specified node.

Specified by:

getHeight in interface OrientedForest
