Class Integer_JPL

java.lang.Object

jpl.Term

jpl.Integer_JPL

public class Integer_JPL
extends Term

An Integer is a Term with an int field. Use this class to create Java representation of Prolog integers:

 Integer i = new Integer( 1024 );
 

An Integer can be used (and re-used) in Compound Terms. Copyright (C) 1998 Fred Dushin

the Integer's value

Constructor Detail

Integer_JPL

public Integer_JPL(int value)

Parameters:

value - This Integer's value

Method Detail

value

public final int value()

Returns:

the Integer's value

put

protected final void put(Hashtable var_table,
                         term_t term)

To put an Integer in a term, we put an integer.

Specified by:

put in class Term

Parameters:

var_table - A Hashtable containing term_t's that are bound to (have packed in) Prolog variables as elements. The Elements are keyed by jpl.Variable instances. Cf. the put() implementation in the Variable class.

term - A (previously created) term_t which is to be packed with a Prolog term-type appropriate to the Term type (e.g., Atom, Variable, Compound, etc.) on which the method is invoked.)

from_term_t

protected static Term from_term_t(Hashtable vars,
                                  term_t term)

Converts a term_t to an Atom. Assuming the term is an atom, we just create a new Atom using the term's name. We are careful to create a List.Nil object if indeed the atom is "[]". Note that nil is an atom in Prolog and jpl.

Parameters:

term - The term_t to convert

Returns:

A new Atom

computeSubstitution

protected final void computeSubstitution(Hashtable bindings,
                                         Hashtable vars)

Nothing needs to be done if the Term is an Atom.

Specified by:

computeSubstitution in class Term

Parameters:

table - table holding Term substitutions, keyed on Variables.

toString

public String toString()

Converts an Integer to its String form -- its value.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

String representation of an Integer

debugString

public String debugString()

Specified by:

debugString in class Term

equals

public final boolean equals(Object obj)

Two Integers are equal if their values are equal

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj - The Object to compare

Returns:

true if the Object satisfies the above condition
