StringSegment

• java.lang.Object

Fields Summary
String[]	start The segment's begin value.
String[]	end The segment's end value.

Constructors Summary

Methods Summary
public void	addToEnd(java.lang.Object[] by) Adds the input value to this Segment's end value. param by the value to add. Throws IllegalArgumentException if this Segment type is not additive or if the input value is incompatible (e.g., different number of components or different number of dimensions on a component). throw new IllegalArgumentException();
public void	collapse(Segment seg, Animation anim) Collapses this segment with the one passed as a parameter. Note that if the input segment is not of the same class as this one, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown. The method also throws an exception if the input segment's end does not have the same number of components as this segment's end. After this method is called, this segment's end value is the one of the input seg parameter. param seg the Segment to collapse with this one. param anim the Animation this segment is part of. StringSegment mseg = (StringSegment) seg; if (mseg.end.length != end.length) { throw new IllegalArgumentException(); } end = mseg.end;
public java.lang.String[]	compute(float p) Computes an interpolated value for the given penetration in the segment. param p the segment penetration. Should be in the [0, 1] range. return the interpolated value. if (p == 1) { return end; } else { return start; }
public java.lang.Object[]	getEnd() return set end value. return end;
public final float	getLength() Computes this segment's length. This is always the value '1' for a string segment. return 1;
public java.lang.Object[]	getStart() return the start value. return start;
public final void	initialize() Should be called after the segment's configuration is complete to give the segment's implementation a chance to initialize internal data and cache values.
public boolean	isAdditive() return true if this segment type supports addition. false otherwise. return false;
public void	setStart(java.lang.Object[] newStart) Sets the start value. param newStart the new segment start value. start = (String[]) newStart;
public void	setZeroStart() Sets the start value to its notion of 'zero'. For a StringSegment, a 'zero' start means empty strings on all components. for (int i = 0; i < start.length; i++) { start[i] = ""; }
public java.lang.String	toString() Debug helper. StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(); sb.append("StringSegment["); if (start == null) { sb.append("null"); } else { sb.append("start[" + start.length + "] : {"); for (int ci = 0; ci < start.length; ci++) { sb.append("\"" + start[ci] + "\""); if (ci < start.length - 1) { sb.append(","); } } sb.append("}"); } if (end == null) { sb.append(" null"); } else { sb.append(" end[" + end.length + "] : {"); for (int ci = 0; ci < end.length; ci++) { sb.append("\"" + end[ci] + "\""); if (ci < end.length - 1) { sb.append(","); } } sb.append("}"); } return sb.toString();
