public class ValidEdgePredicate
extends AbstractPredicate

Filtering predicate over a potential edge table that indicates which edges are valid edges according to a backing node table. Useful for creating a pool of edges for which not all node have been created, and then filtering out the valid edges using the node pool.

Constructor Detail

ValidEdgePredicate

public ValidEdgePredicate(Graph g)

Creates a new ValidEdgePredicate.

Parameters:

g - the backing graph, the node table of this graph will be used to check for valid edges.

Method Detail

getBoolean

public boolean getBoolean(Tuple tpl)

Indicates if the given tuple can be used as a valid edge for the nodes of the backing graph.

Specified by:

getBoolean in interface Expression

Overrides:

getBoolean in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

tpl - a data tuple from a potential edge table

Returns:

true if the tuple contents allow it to serve as a valid edge of between nodes in the backing graph
