Interface RuleContext

public interface RuleContext

Interface used to convey context information from a rule engine to the stack of procedural builtins. This gives access to the triggering rule, the variable bindings and the set of currently known triples.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	add(Triple t) Assert a new triple in the deduction graph, triggering any consequent processing as appropriate.
boolean	contains(Node s, Node p, Node o) Return true if the triple pattern is already in either the graph or the stack.
boolean	contains(Triple t) Return true if the triple is already in either the graph or the stack.
com.hp.hpl.jena.util.iterator.ClosableIterator<Triple>	find(Node s, Node p, Node o) In some formulations the context includes deductions that are not yet visible to the underlying graph but need to be checked for.
BindingEnvironment	getEnv() Returns the current variable binding environment for the current rule.
InfGraph	getGraph() Returns the parent inference graph.
Rule	getRule() Returns the rule.
void	remove(Triple t) Remove a triple from the deduction graph (and the original graph if relevant).
void	setRule(Rule rule) Sets the rule.
void	silentAdd(Triple t) Assert a new triple in the deduction graph, bypassing any processing machinery.

Method Detail

getEnv

BindingEnvironment getEnv()

Returns the current variable binding environment for the current rule.

Returns:

BindingEnvironment

getGraph

InfGraph getGraph()

Returns the parent inference graph.

Returns:

InfGraph

getRule

Rule getRule()

Returns the rule.

Returns:

Rule

setRule

void setRule(Rule rule)

Sets the rule.

Parameters:

rule - The rule to set

contains

boolean contains(Triple t)

Return true if the triple is already in either the graph or the stack. I.e. it has already been deduced.

contains

boolean contains(Node s,
               Node p,
               Node o)

Return true if the triple pattern is already in either the graph or the stack. I.e. it has already been deduced.

find

com.hp.hpl.jena.util.iterator.ClosableIterator<Triple> find(Node s,
                                                          Node p,
                                                          Node o)

In some formulations the context includes deductions that are not yet visible to the underlying graph but need to be checked for.

silentAdd

void silentAdd(Triple t)

Assert a new triple in the deduction graph, bypassing any processing machinery.

add

void add(Triple t)

Assert a new triple in the deduction graph, triggering any consequent processing as appropriate.

remove

void remove(Triple t)

Remove a triple from the deduction graph (and the original graph if relevant).
