Method Detail

accept

public void accept(PropositionDefinitionVisitor processor)

Description copied from interface: PropositionDefinitionVisitable

Performs some processing on a proposition definition.

Specified by:

accept in interface PropositionDefinitionVisitable

acceptChecked

public void acceptChecked(PropositionDefinitionCheckedVisitor processor)
                   throws ProtempaException

Description copied from interface: PropositionDefinitionCheckedVisitable

Performs some processing on this proposition definition.

Specified by:

acceptChecked in interface PropositionDefinitionCheckedVisitable

Throws:

ProtempaException

isConcatenable

public boolean isConcatenable()

By definition, events are not concatenable.

Specified by:

isConcatenable in interface PropositionDefinition

Returns:

false.

See Also:

PropositionDefinition.isConcatenable()

isSolid

public boolean isSolid()

Returns whether intervals of this type are solid, i.e., never hold over properly overlapping intervals. By definition, event intervals are not solid because events of the same type can and do overlap in time.

Specified by:

isSolid in interface PropositionDefinition

Returns:

false.

recalculateChildren

protected void recalculateChildren()

Specified by:

recalculateChildren in class AbstractPropositionDefinition
