  • Method Details

    • isEquivalent

      public static boolean isEquivalent(PathOccurrence path1, PathOccurrence path2)
      This method will verify if path1 is equivalent to path2. It checks if path1 has same structure and same context as that of path2.

      Supported API: true
      Parameters:
      path1 - PathOccurrence to be compared
      path2 - PathOccurrence to be compared
      Returns:
      boolean Flag stating if the given paths are equivalent

    • isContained2

      public static boolean isContained2(PathOccurrence path1, PathOccurrence path2)
      This method will is done for indicators. The other one seems to not work correctly. This method checks if the first path contains the second path The logic assumes below things.
      1. Both path should have same uses occurrence reference at each level starting form tail.
      2. It does not check if the path2 is contained somewhere in between path1. It only check that path2 is a part of path1 starting from tail to somewhere till root. E.g If we have path1 A -> B -> C -> D, and path2 B -> C, then this method will return false. This method will return true only if path2 is either D, C -> D or B -> C -> D
      Supported API: true
      Parameters:
      path1 - Super path
      path2 - subset path
      Returns:
      boolean Flag stating if first path contains second path

    • deleteEquivalenceLink

      public static int deleteEquivalenceLink(Iterated iterated) throws WTException
      This method will delete the equivalence links that reference the given itetared object.

      Supported API: true
      Parameters:
      iterated - An Iterated object for which the equivalence links have to be deleted
      Returns:
      int returns the number of equivalence links deleted
      Throws:
      WTException

    • getOccurrencableLinkFromPersistable

      public static HashMap<Long,Object[]> getOccurrencableLinkFromPersistable(Persistable persistable) throws WTException
      This method will get the map of UsesOccurrence id and its corresponding UsesOccurrence objects for all occurrenceable links (i.e. usage links) of the given persistable object.

      Supported API: true
      Parameters:
      persistable - A Persistable object for which occurrenceable links need to be fetched
      Returns:
      Map of UsesOccurrence id and array containing its corresponding UsesOccurrence objects
      Throws:
      WTException
