Class Guess

java.lang.Object
  com.hp.hpl.guess.Guess

public class Guess

extends Object

the main guess system, it contains a Main that does most of what you want, but you can basically build your own application using the stuff in this class. Generally, you will want to do:

 StorageFactory.useDBServer(...) // to set up the database you want
 Guess.configureUI()             // unless you want your own L&F
 Guess.init(...)

Method Summary

static boolean	allowMultiEdge() allow multiple edges
static void	checkFrozen(InterpreterAbstraction interp)
static void	configureUI() do some initial setup to the UI look and feel
static void	enableMainUI(boolean state) enable the main UI window?
static void	exceptionHandle(Throwable e2)
static AppletContext	getAppletContext() get the applet context
static boolean	getAppletMode() are we running inside an applet?
static void	getDataBase() when a database is unspecified you get walked through a few steps, this should only be run once before the init process (see the main loop for an example)
static FrameListener	getFrame()
static boolean	getGPLFreeMode() get the gplfree mode
static Graph	getGraph() gets the current working graph, if the sytem hasn't been inited you get back null
static InterpreterAbstraction	getInterpreter() get the interpreter (fake or real depending on useFakeInterpreter setting)
static MainUIWindow	getMainUIWindow()
static boolean	getMTF() Are objects being moved to the front when they change
static boolean	getSynchronous() thread management
static void	init(int uiMode, boolean guiMode, boolean textMode) the main loop, this will get us running.
static void	initHandles()
static void	initRest(int uiMode, boolean guiMode, boolean textMode)
static void	initUI(int uiMode, boolean guiMode, boolean textMode)
static void	main(String[] argv) the main loop, this gets used when you're not using the applet version
static void	setAppletMode(boolean state, AppletContext ac) running inside an applet? true for yes, default is false
static void	setCacheDir()
static void	setGPLFreeMode(boolean state) set the gplfree mode
static void	setMTF(boolean state) should objects in the visualization be moved to the front when they change
static void	setSynchronous(boolean state) should layouts run in their own threads?
static void	shutdown() shutdown and exit
static void	useFakeInterpreter(boolean state) call this first if you want to use the "fake" interpreter.

Field Detail

nowarn

public static boolean nowarn

outHandle

public static BufferedReader outHandle

errHandle

public static BufferedReader errHandle

handleOver

public static boolean handleOver

Constructor Detail

Guess

public Guess()

Method Detail

allowMultiEdge

public static boolean allowMultiEdge()

allow multiple edges

enableMainUI

public static void enableMainUI(boolean state)

enable the main UI window?

setGPLFreeMode

public static void setGPLFreeMode(boolean state)

set the gplfree mode

getGPLFreeMode

public static boolean getGPLFreeMode()

get the gplfree mode

setAppletMode

public static void setAppletMode(boolean state,
                                 AppletContext ac)

running inside an applet? true for yes, default is false

getAppletMode

public static boolean getAppletMode()

are we running inside an applet?

getAppletContext

public static AppletContext getAppletContext()

get the applet context

useFakeInterpreter

public static void useFakeInterpreter(boolean state)

call this first if you want to use the "fake" interpreter. The fake one won't let you execute any commands through jython but may be ok if you're just building a simple applet

getInterpreter

public static InterpreterAbstraction getInterpreter()

get the interpreter (fake or real depending on useFakeInterpreter setting)

Returns:

a jython interpreter

getFrame

public static FrameListener getFrame()

getGraph

public static Graph getGraph()

gets the current working graph, if the sytem hasn't been inited you get back null

Returns:

the working graph or null

getMainUIWindow

public static MainUIWindow getMainUIWindow()

setCacheDir

public static void setCacheDir()

main

public static void main(String[] argv)
                 throws Exception

the main loop, this gets used when you're not using the applet version

Parameters:

argv - arguments

Throws:

Exception

getDataBase

public static void getDataBase()

when a database is unspecified you get walked through a few steps, this should only be run once before the init process (see the main loop for an example)

configureUI

public static void configureUI()

do some initial setup to the UI look and feel

exceptionHandle

public static void exceptionHandle(Throwable e2)

init

public static void init(int uiMode,
                        boolean guiMode,
                        boolean textMode)
                 throws Exception

the main loop, this will get us running. You'll usually want either the guiMode or textMode enabled but you can do both or neither.

Parameters:

uiMode - which ui to use (currently VisFactory.PICCOLO,VisFactory.TOUCGRAPH, VisFactory.PREFUSE, or VisFactory.NOVIS)

guiMode - run the interpeter as a seperate console

textMode - run the intepreter in the original console

Throws:

Exception

initHandles

                        throws Exception

Throws:

Exception

setSynchronous

public static void setSynchronous(boolean state)

should layouts run in their own threads?

getSynchronous

public static boolean getSynchronous()

thread management

setMTF

public static void setMTF(boolean state)

should objects in the visualization be moved to the front when they change

getMTF

public static boolean getMTF()

Are objects being moved to the front when they change

initUI

public static void initUI(int uiMode,
                          boolean guiMode,
                          boolean textMode)
                   throws Exception
