Method Detail

referenceRequirements

public abstract SCHReferenceReqSet referenceRequirements()

Each concretizing class needs to provide a ReferenceReqSet of all the references which must be set prior to the parameter's evaluation.

specificRender

public abstract java.lang.StringBuffer specificRender()
                                               throws Scheherexception

Each concretizing class needs to provide a render function. It is encapsulated inside this abstract class's render() so that we can render the outgoing reference, if any.

Throws:

Scheherexception

render

public java.lang.StringBuffer render()
                              throws Scheherexception

Throws:

Scheherexception

makeCopy

public abstract SCHParameter makeCopy()

Make a copy of the Parameter at the level of the concretizing class

makeClone

public SCHParameter makeClone()

Make a clone of the Parameter.
