public class InequalityFilterNode
extends FilterNode

This node filters patterns according to equalities and inequalities of elements. The 'subject' element is asserted to be different from the elements given by the inequalityMask.

Constructor Details

InequalityFilterNode

public InequalityFilterNode(ReteContainer reteContainer,
 int subject,
 TupleMask inequalityMask)

Parameters:

reteContainer -

subject - the index of the element that should be compared.

inequalityMask - the indices of elements that should be different from the subjectIndex.

Method Details

check

public boolean check(Tuple ps)

Description copied from class: FilterNode

Abstract filtering predicate. Expected to be stateless.

Specified by:

check in class FilterNode

Parameters:

ps - the matching to be checked.

Returns:

true if and only if the parameter matching is allowed to pass through this node.
