Constructor Detail

Ordering

public Ordering(AssessmentSection parent)

Constructs object.

Parameters:

parent - parent of created object

Method Detail

getParent

public AssessmentSection getParent()

Description copied from interface: XmlNode

Gets parent of this node or null (if node is root; for example AssessmentTest).

While testing some nodes (for example expressions) don't have properly set parent, but it is usable only for testing. (Some nodes cannot exists without parent even for testing).

Specified by:

getParent in interface XmlNode

Specified by:

getParent in interface XmlObject

Overrides:

getParent in class AbstractObject

Returns:

parent of this node or null (if node is root; for example AssessmentTest)

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

getShuffle

public java.lang.Boolean getShuffle()

Gets value of shuffle attribute.

Returns:

value of shuffle attribute

See Also:

setShuffle(java.lang.Boolean)

setShuffle

public void setShuffle(java.lang.Boolean shuffle)

Sets new value of shuffle attribute.

Parameters:

shuffle - new value of shuffle attribute

See Also:

getShuffle()

process

public void process()

Applies this ordering to its parent children.
