Method Summary

protected boolean	evaluate(java.lang.Object bestTime) This method is used to determine whether there should be follow-up action on the processing of this ExPhen object.
protected EcoFactor	getRevisedFactor() Method to get an updated eco factor for this ExPhen object which will be suitable to substitute in the environment as the outcome of processing this extended phenotype.
Route	getRoute()
protected void	postProcess(EcoFactor factor, java.lang.Object value) Method which is called as a post-processor as the final step of ExPhen.applyToEnvironment(Object).

Constructor Detail

ExPhen_TS

public ExPhen_TS(EcoFactor factor,
                 java.lang.Object value)

Parameters:

factor -

value -

Method Detail

getRoute

public Route getRoute()

Returns:

the Route

evaluate

protected boolean evaluate(java.lang.Object bestTime)

Description copied from class: ExPhen_

This method is used to determine whether there should be follow-up action on the processing of this ExPhen object. By convention, this method returns true only if derived value is less than criterion. It should be overridden by concrete implementers of ExPhen.

Overrides:

evaluate in class ExPhen_

Parameters:

bestTime - the higher this value, the more likely the method will return true, in general.

Returns:

true if the travel time for the environment is less than the given best time.

getRevisedFactor

protected EcoFactor getRevisedFactor()

Description copied from class: ExPhen_

Method to get an updated eco factor for this ExPhen object which will be suitable to substitute in the environment as the outcome of processing this extended phenotype. This method should be overridden by concrete implementers of ExPhen.

Overrides:

getRevisedFactor in class ExPhen_

Returns:

a new instance of EcoFactor_Clients which has the various clients belonging to the Route which is the value of this ExPhen.

postProcess

protected void postProcess(EcoFactor factor,
                           java.lang.Object value)

Description copied from class: ExPhen_

Method which is called as a post-processor as the final step of ExPhen.applyToEnvironment(Object). By default, this method does nothing. Concrete implementations of ExPhen should consider overriding this method.

Overrides:

postProcess in class ExPhen_

Parameters:

factor - the updated eco factor

value - the value of this ExPhen
