Overrides:

setCorpusDesc in class StepDesc

setPepperModule

public void setPepperModule(PepperModule pepperModule)

Creates a ModuleControllerImpl object as container for the passed PepperModule object. The PepperModule object is injected to the ModuleControllerImpl object. If setProps(Properties) was already called, Properties will be passed to PepperModule to create a PepperModuleProperties object.

Parameters:

pepperModule -

getModuleController

public ModuleControllerImpl getModuleController()

The ModuleControllerImpl object which belongs to this step and acts as a bridge between Pepper and the Pepper module.

Returns:

controller object for PepperModule

getModuleType

public MODULE_TYPE getModuleType()

Returns the type of the PepperModule to be used. If no MODULE_TYPE is set, but the ModuleControllerImpl is, the type is estimated.

Overrides:

getModuleType in class StepDesc

Returns:

module type
