Detailed Description

Inherit from this class and override some or all of the methods for informative and error handling callbacks.

You can pick and choose which callbacks you want to do something about by only overriding the callback methods that you feel like doing something about. The remaining methods you do not override will then just remain the default no-ops (no operations) and do nothing.

After you create your custom subclass of CallBacks, you instantiate it and call GraphBuilder's method setCallBacks GraphBuilder.setCallBacks() giving it the address of your custom subclass of CallBacks. GraphBuilder will NOT try to delete your subclass. You are responsible for the memory management of your CallBacks subclass.

If you do not override this class and call GraphBuilder's setCallBacks with the address of your instance, then the default one inside GraphBuilder will be used. The default CallBacks is an instantiation of this no-ops (No operations) class. Therefore nothing will happen when each method is called and is thus the default behavior.


Member Function Documentation

virtual void CategoryLoaded ( string  userId,
string  botId,
string  endUserId 
) [inline, virtual]

During the load time of AIML data this is called after each AIML category is loaded.

This enables an action to be performed after each category is loaded such as counting the categories and periodically outputting that "x" number of categories has been loaded so far.

This callback will only be called during a call to GraphBuilder.createGraph().

Parameters:
userId The user that caused this
botId The bot that caused this
endUserId The end user that caused this
Exceptions:
Any can be thrown.

virtual void FilePostLoad ( string  fileName,
string  userId,
string  botId,
string  endUserId 
) [inline, virtual]

During the load time of AIML data this is called after a file is parsed for AIML tags.

This enables an action to be performed after each file is loaded such as outputting that "file x" was loaded or to count the amount of time a file takes to load using CallBacks.filePreLoad in conjunction.

This callback will only be called during a call to GraphBuilder.createGraph().

Parameters:
fileName The name of the file that was just parsed for AIML tags.
userId The user that caused this
botId The bot that caused this
endUserId The end user that caused this
Exceptions:
Any can be thrown.

virtual void FilePreLoad ( string  fileName,
string  userId,
string  botId,
string  endUserId 
) [inline, virtual]

During the load time of AIML data this is called before a file is parsed for AIML tags.

This enables an action to be performed before each file is loaded such as outputting that "file x" is loading or to count the amount of time a file takes to load using CallBacks.filePostLoad in conjunction.

This callback will only be called during a call to GraphBuilder.createGraph().

Parameters:
fileName The name of the file that is about to be parsed for AIML tags.
userId The user that caused this
botId The bot that caused this
endUserId The end user that caused this
Exceptions:
Any can be thrown.

virtual void InfiniteSymbolicReduction ( string  userId,
string  botId,
string  endUserId 
) [inline, virtual]

When srai AIML tags cause an infinite recursion, the infinite recursion is automatically terminated and this method is called.

This method can be used to send an informative message that the AIML tags have infinite recursion with the srai tags or to just detect the issue. You DO NOT have to worry about trying to terminate the recursion yourself. The recursion is automatically terminated.

This callback will only be called during a call to GraphBuilder.getResponse().

Parameters:
userId The user that caused this
botId The bot that caused this
endUserId The end user that caused this
Exceptions:
Any can be thrown.

virtual void InputTagNumericConversionError ( string  message,
string  userId,
string  botId,
string  endUserId

This is useful to output when the AIML tag Input during load time has invalid numeric values for its index.

This callback will only be called during a call to GraphBuilder.createGraph()

Parameters:
message A informative message of the error for humans
userId The user that caused this
botId The bot that caused this
endUserId The end user that caused this
Exceptions:
Any can be thrown.

virtual void InputTagSizeExceeded ( string  userId,
string  botId,
string  endUserId 
) [inline, virtual]

virtual void StoreGossip ( string  gossip,
string  userId,
string  botId,
string  endUserId 
) [inline, virtual]

Stores gossip from the aiml gossip tag.

Whenever the gossip tag is encountered during the runtime of rebecca aiml, this callback is called. This gives the opportunity to store gossip into a flat file, or something else deemed appropriate.

The possibility of this callback being called is only during a call to GraphBuilder.getResponse().
