Class TLcdCluster<T>
- All Implemented Interfaces:
ILcdDataObject
Represents a cluster of objects that are elements from the original model.
When using a data model to describe your data, you don't have to downcast to this class as the clusters can also be identified by their data type.
TLcdClusterDataTypes
defines several properties of clusters.
These can be retrieved as follows:
ILcdDataObject dataObject = ...;
String classification = (String) dataObject.getValue(TLcdClusterDataTypes.CLASSIFICATION_PROPERTY);
There are convenience methods provided so that if you do downcast, you can simply call a getter.
TLcdCluster<?> cluster = ...;
String classification = cluster.getClassification();
- Since:
- 2016.0

Method Details
-
getClusterShape
Returns theILcdShape
used to represent the cluster. Returns the same value as theTLcdClusterDataTypes.SHAPE_PROPERTY
.- Returns:
- the cluster shape.
- See Also:
-
getClassification
Returns the classification of this cluster. Each composing element of this cluster shares this classification. Returns the same value as theTLcdClusterDataTypes.CLASSIFICATION_PROPERTY
.- Returns:
- the classification of this cluster.
- See Also:
-
getComposingElements
Returns the set of elements that make up this cluster. These are all elements of the original model, that was used as input for clustering. Returns the same value as theTLcdClusterDataTypes.COMPOSING_ELEMENTS_PROPERTY
.- Returns:
- The composing elements.
-

getDataType
Description copied from interface:ILcdDataObject
Returns the type of this data object. This can never benull
.- Specified by:
getDataType
in interfaceILcdDataObject
- Returns:
- the type of this data object
-
getValue
Description copied from interface:ILcdDataObject
Returns the value of the given property.
If the property is a collection, the returned value will never be null. If the property has not been set, an empty collection of the appropriate type will be returned (Set, List or Map).
The property must not be null, and must be declared in the
data object's type
or in one of its super types. Otherwise anIllegalArgumentException
is thrown.- Specified by:
getValue
in interfaceILcdDataObject
- Parameters:
aProperty
- the property for which the value is to be returned- Returns:
- the value of the given property for this data object
-
getValue
Description copied from interface:ILcdDataObject
Convenience method that returns the value of the property with the given name.
If more than one property exists with the given name, the most specific property should be used (this is the property defined by the most specialized type in this object's data type hierarchy). SeeILcdDataObject.getValue(TLcdDataProperty)
for more information.- Specified by:
getValue
in interfaceILcdDataObject
- Parameters:
aPropertyName
- the name of the property of which the value is to be returned- Returns:
- the value of the property with the given name
- See Also:
-
setValue
Description copied from interface:ILcdDataObject
Sets the value of the given property for this data object. The implementation is allowed to throw an exception if the given value can't be set.
The given property must be declared in thedata object's type
or in one of its super types. In other words, getDataType().getProperties().contains( aProperty ) should always be true. Otherwise, the implementation should throw anIllegalArgumentException
.- Specified by:
setValue
in interfaceILcdDataObject
- Parameters:
aProperty
- the property for which the value is to be setaValue
- the value to set- See Also:
-
setValue
Description copied from interface:ILcdDataObject
Convenience method that sets the value of the property with the given name.
If more than one property exists with the given name, the most specific property should be used (this is the property defined by the most specialized type in this object's data type hierarchy). SeeILcdDataObject.setValue(TLcdDataProperty, Object)
for more information.- Specified by:
setValue
in interfaceILcdDataObject
- Parameters:
aPropertyName
- the name of the property of which the value is to be setaValue
- the value to set
-
hasValue
Description copied from interface:ILcdDataObject
Indicates whether this data object has a value for the given property.aProperty
is from theright data type
, and this instance has a value for it: returnstrue
aProperty
is from theright data type
, and this instance has no value for it: returnsfalse
aProperty
is not from theright data type
: not allowed, you will get IllegalArgumentExceptionaProperty
isnull
: not allowed, you will get NullPointerException
- Specified by:
hasValue
in interfaceILcdDataObject
- Parameters:
aProperty
- the property for which to return whether a value is present or not.- Returns:
true
if this data object has a value for the given property,false
otherwise.
-
hasValue
Description copied from interface:ILcdDataObject
Indicates whether this data object has a value for the given property.
SeeILcdDataObject.hasValue(TLcdDataProperty)
for more information.- Specified by:
hasValue
in interfaceILcdDataObject
- Parameters:
aPropertyName
- the name of the property for which to return whether a value is present or not.- Returns:
true
if this data object has a value for the property with the given name,false
otherwise.
