org.jacop.constraints.Constraint

org.jacop.constraints.Conditional

All Implemented Interfaces:

SatisfiedPresent

public class Conditional
extends Constraint
implements SatisfiedPresent

Conditional constraint implements conditional constraint satisfiability. It enforces consistency of constraint c[k] where b[k] = 1 (true) and all b[i] for i < k are 0 (false).

Field Detail

b

public final IntVar[] b

The list of 0/1 (Boolean) variables for assignment decision.

c

public final PrimitiveConstraint[] c

The list of constraints that are to be selected.

Constructor Detail

Conditional

public Conditional(IntVar[] b,
                   PrimitiveConstraint[] c)

It constructs a Conditional constraint.

Parameters:

b - 0/1 variables for selection of constraint

c - constraints for selection.

Conditional

public Conditional(List<? extends IntVar> b,
                   List<? extends PrimitiveConstraint> c)

It constructs a Conditional constraint.

Parameters:

b - 0/1 variables for selection of constraint

c - constraints for selection.

Method Detail

getDefaultConsistencyPruningEvent

public int getDefaultConsistencyPruningEvent()

Specified by:

getDefaultConsistencyPruningEvent in class Constraint

consistency

public void consistency(Store store)

Description copied from class: Constraint

It is a (most probably incomplete) consistency function which removes the values from variables domains. Only values which do not have any support in a solution space are removed.

Specified by:

consistency in class Constraint

Parameters:

store - constraint store within which the constraint consistency is being checked.

satisfied

public boolean satisfied()

Informs wheter the constraint is satisfied

Specified by:

satisfied in interface SatisfiedPresent

Returns:

true if constraint is satisfied

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from class: Constraint

It produces a string representation of a constraint state.

Overrides:

toString in class Constraint
