Method Details

getGraph

NESTGraphObject getGraph()

Returns the graph this object is related to.

Returns:

The graph for this item; NULL, if the object is not related to any graph.

setGraph

void setGraph(NESTGraphObject graph)

Sets the graph this object is related to.

Parameters:

graph - The graph for this graphitem.

getSemanticDescriptor

DataObject getSemanticDescriptor()

Returns the semantic description for the graph-object.

Returns:

The semantic description for this graph-object.

setSemanticDescriptor

void setSemanticDescriptor(DataObject content)

Sets the semantic description for the graph-object.

Parameters:

content - The semantic description for the graph-object.

addSemanticValue

void addSemanticValue(String semanticDescriptorClass,
 String attributeName,
 String attributeValue)

Adds the given attributeValue with the given attributeName to the graphItem. If a semantic description is not yet available for the graphItem, an object of the type semanticDescriptorClass will be instantiated.

Parameters:

semanticDescriptorClass - The name of the CAKE I - DataObjectClass, which should be instantiated, if no semantic Descriptor is yet available with graphItem.

attributeName - The name of the attribute to write.

attributeValue - The String-value of the attribute, which should be written. The String will be encapsulated within a CAKE I - StringObject.

addSemanticValue

void addSemanticValue(String semanticDescriptorClass,
 String attributeName,
 DataObject attributeValue)

Adds the given attributeValue with the given attributeName to the graphItem. If a semantic description is not yet available for the graphItem, an object of the type semanticDescriptorClass will be instantiated.

Parameters:

semanticDescriptorClass - The name of the CAKE I - DataObjectClass, which should be instantiated, if no semantic Descriptor is yet available with graphItem.

attributeName - The name of the attribute to write.

attributeValue - The CAKE I - DataObject-value of the attribute, which should be written.

getSemanticValueRecursively

DataObject getSemanticValueRecursively(String attributeName)

Returns the DataObject that is stored with the passed attribute name. Only the first matching object will be returned. Searches the semantic descriptor recursively using breadth-first search.

Parameters:

attributeName - the name of the attribute

Returns:

the first detected DataObject with the given attribute name; null if no matching attribute was found

getSemanticDescriptorStringValue
