Heaper	fetch() If I am exhausted (i.e., if (!! this->hasValue())), then return NULL.
Heaper	get() Essential.
boolean	hasValue() Iff I have a current value (i.e.
static Heaper	make(IntegerTable aTable, IntegerVar start, IntegerVar stop) Do not consider public.
static Heaper	make(IntegerTable aTable, OrderSpec anOrder) Do not consider public.
Position	position() A TableStepper actually enumerates the associations of a table.

Method Detail

fetch

public Heaper fetch()

Description copied from class: Stepper

If I am exhausted (i.e., if (!! this->hasValue())), then return NULL. Else return
current element. I return wimpily since most items returned are held by collections.
If I create a new object, I should cache it.

Overrides:

fetch in class TableStepper

get

public Heaper get()

Description copied from class: Stepper

Essential. BLAST if exhasted. Else return current element. I return wimpily since most
items returned are held by collections. If I create a new object, I should cache it.

Overrides:

get in class Stepper

hasValue

public boolean hasValue()

Description copied from class: Stepper

Iff I have a current value (i.e. this message returns true), then I am not
exhasted. 'fetch' and 'get' will both return this value, and I can be 'step'ped to
my next state. As I am stepped, eventually I may become exhausted (the
reverse of all the above), which is a permanent condition.
Note that not all steppers have to be exhaustable. A Stepper which
enumerates all primes is perfectly reasonable. Assuming otherwise will create
infinite loops. See class comment.

Overrides:

hasValue in class TableStepper

step

public void step()

Description copied from class: Stepper

Essential. If I am currently exhausted (see Stepper::hasValue()), then it is an error to
step me. The result of doing so isn't currently specified (we probably should specify it
to BLAST, but I know that the implementation doesn't currently live up to that spec).
If I am not exhausted, then this advances me to my next state. If my current value (see
Stepper::get()) was my final value, then I am now exhausted, otherwise my new current
value is the next value.

Overrides:

step in class TableStepper

position

public Position position()

Description copied from class: TableStepper

A TableStepper actually enumerates the associations of a table. Through the normal Stepper
protocol, it makes available the range element of the current association. Through this
additional protocol, it make accessible the key of the current association. This message
returns the same object as TwoStepper::other, the only difference being the static
knowledge that it's a Position.

Overrides:

position in class TableStepper

copy

public Stepper copy()

Description copied from class: Stepper

Return a new stepper which steps independently of me, but whose current value is the same
as mine, and which must produce a future history of values which satisfies the same
obligation that my contract obligates me to produce now. Typically, this will mean that he
must produce the same future history that I'm going to produce. However, let's say that I
am enumerating the elements of a partial order in some full order which is consistent with
the partial order. If a copy of me is made after I'm part way through, then me and my copy
may produce any future history compatable both with the partial order and the elements
I've already produced by the time of the copy. Of course, a subclass or a Stepper creating
message (like IntegerRegion::stepper()) may specify the more stringent requirement (that a
copy must produce the same sequence).
To prevent aliasing, Steppers should typically be passed by copy. See class comment.

Overrides:
