Detailed Description

AIML class that represents the AIML XML tag "condition".

Every time a XML Tag of AIML is encountered, an instance of this class will be created. All text inbetween the begin and end tag, all attributes, and all inner Tags will go through methods of this class.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Condition GraphBuilderFramework builder  )  throw (InternalProgrammerErrorException &)
 

Initalizes the private implementation (m_pimpl) data and sets the private implementation with a reference to the GraphBuilderFramework.

Parameters:
builder A reference to the graph builder framework that can be used to set and get information from the AIML engine.
Exceptions:
InternalProgrammerErrorException is thrown only if the error is so grave that the entire AIML engine has to be shut down.

virtual ~Condition  )  [virtual]
 

Default virtual destructor.

Destroys the private implementation (m_pimpl) data.


Member Function Documentation

virtual void add const shared_ptr< InnerTemplate > &  tag  )  throw (InternalProgrammerErrorException &) [virtual]
 

Adds the InnerTemplate AIML XML Tag object to the underlying data structure.

Parameters:
tag The InnerTemplate AIML XML Tag that is inside this AIML XML Tag and is to be added to this AIMl XML's underlying data structure for latter retrievel through Condition::getString()
Exceptions:
InternalProgrammerErrorException is thrown only if the error is so grave that the entire AIML engine has to be shut down.

Reimplemented from InnerTemplate.

virtual void addCharacters const StringPimpl characters  )  throw (InternalProgrammerErrorException &) [virtual]
 

Creates a PlainWord object with the characters and adds it to the end of the underlying data structure.

Parameters:
characters The characters to insert into the PlainWord object.
Exceptions:
InternalProgrammerErrorException is thrown only if the error is so grave that the entire AIML engine has to be shut down.

Reimplemented from Tag.

virtual StringPimpl getString  )  const throw (InternalProgrammerErrorException &) [virtual]
 

Calls GraphBuilderFramework::predicateMatch() with calculated data from Condition::setAttribute() and returns the result.

Returns:
The appropriate result from calling GraphBuilderFramework::predicateMatch()
Exceptions:
InternalProgrammerErrorException is thrown only if the error is so grave that the entire AIML engine has to be shut down.

Reimplemented from InnerTemplate.

virtual void setAttribute const StringPimpl name,
const StringPimpl value
throw (InternalProgrammerErrorException &) [virtual]
 

Sets its attribute of "name" or "value".

Parameters:
name The name of the AIML XML attribute
value The value of the AIML XML attribute
Exceptions:
InternalProgrammerErrorException is thrown only if the error is so grave that the entire AIML engine has to be shut down.

Reimplemented from Tag.


Member Data Documentation

shared_ptr<ConditionImpl> m_pimpl [private]
 

The private implementation in which you cannot get access to.

This shared_ptr holds the private methods and private member variables of this class. This makes ABI (Application Binary Interface) more resilient to change. See the private implementation idiom on the internet for more information about this.

Reimplemented from InnerTemplate.
