Field Detail

label

private String label

Holds the String designating the label.

Method Detail

init

public void init(String label)

Provides a simple class label covering the given String.

Specified by:

init in class ClassLabel

Parameters:

label - the String to be cast as label

compareTo

public int compareTo(ClassLabel o)

The ordering of two SimpleClassLabels is given by the ordering on the Strings they represent.

That is, the result equals this.label.compareTo(o.label).

hashCode

public int hashCode()

The hash code of a simple class label is the hash code of the String represented by the ClassLabel.

Overrides:

hashCode in class ClassLabel

See Also:

Object.hashCode()

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Any ClassLabel should ensure a natural ordering that is consistent with equals. Thus, if this.compareTo(o)==0, then this.equals(o) should be true.

Overrides:

equals in class ClassLabel

Parameters:

o - an object to test for equality w.r.t. this ClassLabel

Returns:

true, if this==obj || this.compareTo(o)==0, false otherwise

toString

public String toString()

Returns a new instance of the String covered by this SimpleClassLabel.

Specified by:

toString in class ClassLabel

Returns:

a new instance of the String covered by this SimpleClassLabel

See Also:

Object.toString()
