Field Detail

CLASS_TAG

public static final java.lang.String CLASS_TAG
Name of this class in xml schema.

Constant Field Values
Constructor Detail

LookupOutcomeValue

public LookupOutcomeValue(XmlObject parent)
Constructs rule.

Parameters:
parent - parent of this rule
Method Detail

getClassTag

public java.lang.String getClassTag()
Description copied from interface: XmlNode
Gets QTI class name of this node.

QTI class name has very important role during loading/saving nodes.

For example: Java class name is AssessmentTest; QTI class name is assessmentTest.

Specified by:
getClassTag in interface XmlNode
Specified by:
getClassTag in class AbstractNode
Returns:
QTI class name of this node

getRequiredCardinalities

public Cardinality[] getRequiredCardinalities(int index)
Description copied from interface: ExpressionParent
Gets list of all acceptable cardinalities which can child expression at given position produce.

For example delete expression returns single cardinality for index 0 and list of multiple and ordered cardinality for index 1.

Result of this method can change in time.

Static example is expression or. Expression or accepts only single cardinality for any index.

Dynamic example is expression match. Expression match accepts any cardinality of its children, but this cardinality must be same for all its children.

Parameters:
index - position of child expression in this parent
Returns:
list of all possible cardinalities which can child expression at given position produce

getRequiredBaseTypes

public BaseType[] getRequiredBaseTypes(int index)
Description copied from interface: ExpressionParent
Gets list of all acceptable baseTypes which can child expression at given position produce.

Result of this method can change in time.

Static example is expression or. Expression or accepts only boolean baseType for any index.

Dynamic example is expression match. Expression match accepts any baseType of its children. but this baseType must be same for all its children.

Parameters:
index - position of child expression in this parent
Returns:
list of all acceptable baseTypes which can child expression at given position produce

validate

public ValidationResult validate()
Description copied from interface: Validatable
Validates this object.

Specified by:
validate in interface Validatable
Overrides:
validate in class AbstractNode
Returns:
validation result

evaluate

public void evaluate()
Description copied from class: ResponseRule
Evaluates this rule and all its children.

Specified by:
evaluate in class ResponseRule
