Method Detail

getClone

public abstract CrossoverStrategy getClone()

Create a cloned copy of the current object and return it. In general the created copy will be a deep copy of the provided instance. As a result this operation an be quite expensive if used incorrectly.

Specified by:

getClone in interface Operator

Specified by:

getClone in interface Cloneable

Returns:

An exact clone of the current object instance.
