Default Interface for all edges that are to be layouted.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	clearRoutingPoints() removes all points that are used for the routing of this edge and resets it to the default
java.util.List<java.awt.Point>	getRoutingPoints() shall return a list of all routing points.
ObjectInterface	getSource() returns the node where this Edge starts at
ObjectInterface	getTarget() returns the node where this Edge ends
boolean	isSwitched() retrieves the switched value.
void	setRoutingPoints(java.util.List<java.awt.Point> routingPoints) sets the list of new routing points.
void	setSource(ObjectInterface source) sets the source of this edge.
void	setSwitched(boolean switched) sets the switched value.
void	setTarget(ObjectInterface target) sets the target of this edge.

Method Detail

getSource

ObjectInterface getSource()

returns the node where this Edge starts at

Returns:

setSource

void setSource(ObjectInterface source)

sets the source of this edge. This change is only temporarily and will be corrected at the end of the layouting process!

Parameters:

source -

getTarget

ObjectInterface getTarget()

returns the node where this Edge ends

setTarget

void setTarget(ObjectInterface target)

sets the target of this edge. This change is only temporarily and will be corrected at the end of the layouting process!

Parameters:

source -

clearRoutingPoints

void clearRoutingPoints()

removes all points that are used for the routing of this edge and resets it to the default

getRoutingPoints

java.util.List<java.awt.Point> getRoutingPoints()

shall return a list of all routing points. the connection point with the source and target node have to be included even if no other routing points were set before. Thus the List will always have at least a size of 2!

Returns:

setRoutingPoints

void setRoutingPoints(java.util.List<java.awt.Point> routingPoints)

sets the list of new routing points. The list excludes the start and end point!

setSwitched

void setSwitched(boolean switched)

sets the switched value. If true target and source will be treated vice versa. This is necessary, e.g. for some preprocessing steps (UMLPreProcessor)

Parameters:

switched -

isSwitched

boolean isSwitched()

retrieves the switched value. If true target and source will be treated vice versa. This is necessary, e.g. for some preprocessing steps (UMLPreProcessor)

Parameters:

switched -
