Method Detail

add

protected void add(Pipe pipe)

setTargetProcessing

public void setTargetProcessing(boolean lookForAndProcessTarget)

Description copied from class: Pipe

Set whether input is taken from target field of instance during processing. If argument is false, don't expect to find input material for the target. By default, this is true.

Overrides:

setTargetProcessing in class Pipe

resolveDataAlphabet

protected Alphabet resolveDataAlphabet()

Overrides:

resolveDataAlphabet in class Pipe

resolveTargetAlphabet

protected Alphabet resolveTargetAlphabet()

Overrides:

resolveTargetAlphabet in class Pipe

pipe

public Instance pipe(Instance carrier)

Description copied from class: Pipe

Process an Instance. This method takes an input Instance, destructively modifies it in some way, and returns it. This is the method by which all pipes are eventually run.

One can create a new concrete subclass of Pipe simply by implementing this method.

Specified by:

pipe in class Pipe

Parameters:

carrier - Instance to be processed.
