Constructor Detail

SimpleParameterSet

public SimpleParameterSet(Parameter... parameters)

Creates a new SimpleParameterSet from an array of Parameters.

Parameters:

parameters - the parameters

SimpleParameterSet

public SimpleParameterSet(StringBuffer representation)
                   throws NonParsableException

The standard constructor for the interface Storable. Constructs a SimpleParameterSet from its XML representation.

Parameters:

representation - the XML representation as StringBuffer

Throws:

NonParsableException - if the StringBuffer representation could not be parsed

Method Detail

clone

public SimpleParameterSet clone()
                         throws CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from class: ParameterSet

Creates a full clone (deep copy) of this ParameterSet. As a convenience-method the user can use fillWithStandardFieldsForClone(ParameterSet) on a newly created instance of a subclass of ParameterSet to obtain a clone/copy of all standard member variables (those already defined in ParameterSet) in the passed ParameterSet. Using this method, the cloning process becomes merely three-step:

• Create a new instance of your subclass of ParameterSet, most likely with an empty constructor or the one taking just the instance class.
• Call this.fillWithStandardFieldsForClone on this instance.
• Return the instance.

This method fulfills the conventions of Object's method Object.clone().

Overrides:

clone in class ParameterSet

Returns:

a deep clone/copy of this ParameterSet

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException

reset

public void reset()

Description copied from class: ParameterSet

Resets all Parameters in this ParameterSet to their default values or null if not default value was provided.

Overrides:

reset in class ParameterSet

See Also:

Parameter.reset()

loadParameters

protected void loadParameters()

Description copied from class: ParameterSet

Loads the parameters for this ParameterSet. This is in most cases done by calling ParameterSet.initParameterList() or ParameterSet.initParameterList(int) to initialize ParameterSet.parameters and afterwards filling ParameterSet.parameters with instances of subclasses of Parameter.

Specified by:

loadParameters in class ParameterSet
