Class ElementVariableFast

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    SatisfiedPresent, Stateful

    public class ElementVariableFast
    extends Constraint
    implements Stateful, SatisfiedPresent
    ElementVariableFast constraint defines a relation list[index - indexOffset] = value. This version uses bounds consistency.

    The first element of the list corresponds to index - indexOffset = 1. By default indexOffset is equal 0 so first value within a list corresponds to index equal 1.

    If index has a domain from 0 to list.length-1 then indexOffset has to be equal -1 to make addressing of list array starting from 1.

    • Method Detail

      • isStateful

        public boolean isStateful()
        Description copied from interface: Stateful
        This function can be overriden by any constraint to specify dynamic conditions (based on the domain of variables at imposition level to decide if it is a stateful constraint.
        Specified by:
        isStateful in interface Stateful
        Returns:
        true if constraint is stateful.
      • impose

        public void impose​(Store store)
        It imposes the constraint in a given store.
        Overrides:
        impose in class Constraint
        Parameters:
        store - the constraint store to which the constraint is imposed to.
      • 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.
      • disjoint

        private boolean disjoint​(IntVar v1,
                                 IntVar v2)
      • removeLevel

        public void removeLevel​(int level)
        Description copied from interface: Stateful
        This function is called in case of the backtrack, so a constraint can clear the queue of changed variables which is no longer valid. This function is called *before* all timestamps, variables, mutablevariables have reverted to their previous value.
        Specified by:
        removeLevel in interface Stateful
        Parameters:
        level - the level which is being removed.
      • 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 java.lang.String toString()
        Description copied from class: Constraint
        It produces a string representation of a constraint state.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Constraint
