public class ExternalInputStatelessFilterNode
extends FilterNode
implements Disconnectable

A filter node representing a (stateless, typically non-enumerable) extensional input relation.

Contains those tuples of its parents, that (when transformed by a mask, if given) are present in the extensional relation identified by the input key.

Method Details

check

public boolean check(Tuple ps)

Description copied from class: FilterNode

Abstract filtering predicate. Expected to be stateless.

Specified by:

check in class FilterNode

Parameters:

ps - the matching to be checked.

Returns:

true if and only if the parameter matching is allowed to pass through this node.

connectThroughContext

public void connectThroughContext(ReteEngine engine,
 IInputKey inputKey)

disconnect

public void disconnect()

Description copied from interface: Disconnectable

Disconnects this rete engine component from the underlying model. Disconnecting enables the garbage collection mechanisms to dispose of the rete network.

Specified by:

disconnect in interface Disconnectable
