Method Details

init

protected void init()

Description copied from class: AbstractSingleResultPredicate

This method is called by AbstractSingleResultPredicate.setKnowledgeBase(KnowledgeBase).

Can be overridden by subclasses to perform initialisation before any calls to AbstractSingleResultPredicate.getPredicate(Term) are made. As AbstractSingleResultPredicate.setKnowledgeBase(KnowledgeBase) will have already been called before this method is invoked, overridden versions will be able to access the KnowledgeBase using AbstractSingleResultPredicate.getKnowledgeBase().

Overrides:

init in class AbstractSingleResultPredicate

evaluate

protected boolean evaluate(Term arg)

Overrides:

evaluate in class AbstractSingleResultPredicate
