Method Detail

propagate

public void propagate(int evtmask)
               throws ContradictionException

Description copied from class: Propagator

Call the main filtering algorithm to apply to the Domain of the Variable objects. It considers the current state of this objects to remove some values from domains and/or instantiate some variables. Calling this method is done from 2 (and only 2) steps:
- at the initial propagation step,
- when involved in a reified constraint.
It should initialized the internal data structure and apply filtering algorithm from scratch.

Specified by:

propagate in class Propagator<IntVar>

Parameters:

evtmask - type of propagation event this must consider.

Throws:

ContradictionException - when a contradiction occurs, like domain wipe out or other incoherencies.

isEntailed

public ESat isEntailed()

Description copied from class: Propagator

Check wether this is entailed according to the current state of its internal structure. At least, should check the satisfaction of this (when all is instantiated).

Specified by:

isEntailed in class Propagator<IntVar>

Returns:

ESat.TRUE if entailed, ESat.FALSE if not entailed, ESat.UNDEFINED if unknown

duplicate

public void duplicate(Solver solver,
             gnu.trove.map.hash.THashMap<Object,Object> identitymap)

Description copied from class: Propagator

Duplicate the current propagator. A restriction is that the resolution process should have not begun yet. That's why state of the propagator may not be duplicated.

Overrides:

duplicate in class Propagator<IntVar>

Parameters:

solver - the target solver

identitymap - a map to ensure uniqueness of objects

why

public boolean why(RuleStore ruleStore,
          IntVar var,
          IEventType evt,
          int value)

Description copied from interface: ICause

Add new rules to the rule store

Specified by:

why in interface ICause

Overrides:

why in class Propagator<IntVar>

Parameters:

ruleStore - the rule store

var - the modified variable

evt - the undergoing event

value - the value (for REMOVE only)

Returns:

true if at least one rule has been added to the rule store
