Method Detail

getTopology

public Topology<? extends Entity> getTopology()

Specified by:

getTopology in interface TopologyHolder

add

public void add(Entity entity)

Description copied from interface: TopologyHolder

Add a child to the holder?

Specified by:

add in interface TopologyHolder

addAll

public void addAll(List<Entity> entities)

Description copied from interface: TopologyHolder

plural version of add()

Specified by:

addAll in interface TopologyHolder

getOffspring

public Topology<Entity> getOffspring()

getModifiable

public List<? extends Entity> getModifiable()

Description copied from interface: TopologyHolder

get the modifiable list of entities. The idea here is to return various sets based on the type of topologyholder used. In the EC case, the actual offspring collection will be returned. In a PSO, the main topology should be returned.

Specified by:

getModifiable in interface TopologyHolder

Returns:

add

public void add(Entity entity,
                boolean modifiable)

Add the current provided entity to either the modifiable and unmodifiable lists, maintained within this holder.

Specified by:

add in interface TopologyHolder

Parameters:

entity - The entity insance to add.

modifiable - If true add to the modifiable list, else add to the unmodifiable list.

getUnmodifiable

public List<? extends Entity> getUnmodifiable()

Specified by:

getUnmodifiable in interface TopologyHolder
