Method Detail

getPredByEdgeType

int[] getPredByEdgeType(ProcessConstants.DeltaScope scope,
                        int nodeID,
                        ProcessConstants.EdgeType... types)

Returns a list of node IDs which are predecessors of the node, using edges of the given types. If no edge type is given, any kind of edge is considered. The scope refers to the used edges (e.g. if it is NEW, only predecessors following new edges are considered).

Parameters:

scope - Which kind of edges to follow, one of { NEW, DELETED }

nodeID - The ID of the node.

types - The edge types to consider.

Returns:

An array of node IDs.

getSuccByEdgeType

int[] getSuccByEdgeType(ProcessConstants.DeltaScope scope,
                        int nodeID,
                        ProcessConstants.EdgeType... types)

Returns a list of node IDs which are successors of the node, using edges of the given types. If no edge type is given, any kind of edge is considered. The scope refers to the used edges (e.g. if it is NEW, only successors following new edges are considered).

Parameters:

scope - Which kind of edges to follow, one of { NEW, DELETED }

nodeID - The ID of the node.

types - The edge types to consider.

Returns:

An array of node IDs.

getNodes

int[] getNodes(ProcessConstants.DeltaScope scope)

Returns the IDs of nodes of the given scope. E.g. if the scope is set to NEW, the result will contain only node IDs of added nodes.

Parameters:

scope - One of { NEW, DELETED, MOVED, CHANGED }

Returns:

An array of node IDs.

getEdges

java.util.Set<StructuredEdge> getEdges(ProcessConstants.DeltaScope scope,
                                       ProcessConstants.EdgeType... edgeTypes)

Returns a set of comparable edges (edges with structural information), of the given scope and type(s). E.g. if the scope is NEW, the result will contain only edges which have been added.

Parameters:

scope - One of { NEW, DELETED, CHANGED }

edgeTypes - the type of the edges which should be returned

Returns:

A set of comparable edges of the requested scope and type(s).

getDataEdges

java.util.Set<StructuredDataEdge> getDataEdges(ProcessConstants.DeltaScope scope)

Returns a set of comparable data edges (data edges with structural information), of the given scope. E.g. if the scope is NEW, the result will contain only data edges which have been added.

Parameters:

scope - One of { NEW, DELETED, CHANGED }

Returns:

A set of comparable edges of the requested scope.

getDataElements

int[] getDataElements(ProcessConstants.DeltaScope scope)

Returns the IDs of the data elements of the requested scope. E.g. if the scope is set to NEW, the result will only contain data elements which have been added.

Parameters:

scope - One of { NEW, DELETED, CHANGED }

Returns:

The IDs of the data elements of the requested scope.

getChangedNodeProperties

ProcessConstants.NodeProperty[] getChangedNodeProperties(int nodeID)
