org.jacop.set.constraints.AintersectBeqC

All Implemented Interfaces:

SatisfiedPresent, UsesQueueVariable

public class AintersectBeqC
extends Constraint
implements UsesQueueVariable, SatisfiedPresent

It creates a constraint that makes sure that A intersected with B is equal to C. A /\ B = C.

Constructor Details

AintersectBeqC

public AintersectBeqC(SetVar a,
 SetVar b,
 SetVar c)

It constructs an AintersectBeqC constraint.

Parameters:

a - set variable a, which is being intersected with set variable b.

b - set variable b, which is being intersected with set variable a.

c - variable that is restricted to be the intersection of a and b.

Method Details

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.

getDefaultConsistencyPruningEvent

public int getDefaultConsistencyPruningEvent()

Specified by:

getDefaultConsistencyPruningEvent in class Constraint

satisfied

public boolean satisfied()

Description copied from interface: SatisfiedPresent

It checks if the constraint is satisfied. It can return false even if constraint is satisfied but not all variables in its scope are grounded. It needs to return true if all variables in its scope are grounded and constraint is satisfied.

Implementations of this interface for constraints that are not PrimitiveConstraint may require constraint imposition and consistency check as a requirement to work correctly.

Specified by:

satisfied in interface SatisfiedPresent

Returns:

true if constraint is possible to verify that it 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

queueVariable

public void queueVariable(int level,
 Var variable)

Description copied from class: Constraint

This is a function called to indicate which variable in a scope of constraint has changed. It also indicates a store level at which the change has occurred.

Overrides:

queueVariable in class Constraint

Parameters:

level - the level of the store at which the change has occurred.

variable - variable which has changed.
