IBinaryRelation Interface Reference

Inheritance diagram for IBinaryRelation:
Collaboration diagram for IBinaryRelation:

List of all members.

Detailed Description

This interface describes a relationship between two annotations. The kind of relation should be specified in sub interfaces of this interface. Developers implementing specific relations should make use of the HasRelation-marker interfaces to define relations as transitivity of reflexivity.

Method Details

long getId ( ) [package, inherited]

Returns the Id of this DataObject. Might return 0, if the object hasn't been inserted into database yet.

Returns:
id

Implemented in LabeledAnnotation, AttributeValueMap, DublinCoreMetaDataImpl, Frequencies, CoincidenceStatsImpl, CorpusStatsImpl, MultipleTokensStats, VoynichTextLabelsImpl, SyntaxNode< T >, TabularSummary, SimpleComparatorScore, and AccessAdapterTestResultList.

Collection<Annotation<? extends DataObject> > getLinkedAnnotations ( ) [package, inherited]

Returns the list of linked annotations. Never returns null. Depending on the concrete sub-interface, however, the number of elements in the returned collection can vary.

Implemented in BinaryRelation< A extends DataObject, B extends DataObject >, LinkedAnnotations, and SequencerReplacement.

Annotation<? extends DataObject> getReferee ( )

Returns the first argument, or reference, of the relation. Seeing aRb as an representation of the relation, a is returned.

Returns:

Implemented in BinaryRelation< A extends DataObject, B extends DataObject >.

Annotation<? extends DataObject> getReference ( )

Returns the second argument, or reference, of the relation. Seeing aRb as an representation of the relation, b is returned.

Returns:

Implemented in BinaryRelation< A extends DataObject, B extends DataObject >.

void setId ( long  id) [inherited]

Set the Id of this DataObject.

Parameters:
id

Implemented in LabeledAnnotation, AttributeValueMap, DublinCoreMetaDataImpl, Frequencies, CoincidenceStatsImpl, CorpusStatsImpl, MultipleTokensStats, VoynichTextLabelsImpl, SyntaxNode< T >, TabularSummary, SimpleComparatorScore, and AccessAdapterTestResultList.
