Package psidev.psi.mi.jami.utils.comparator.interaction

Class InteractionBaseComparator

java.lang.Object

psidev.psi.mi.jami.utils.comparator.interaction.InteractionBaseComparator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparator<Interaction>

Direct Known Subclasses:

UnambiguousInteractionBaseComparator

public class InteractionBaseComparator
extends Object
implements Comparator<Interaction>

Interaction comparator. It will first compare the interaction types using UnambiguousCvTermComparator. Then it will compare the rigids (case sensitive, null rigids always come after). Then it will compare the identifiers using UnambiguousExternalIdentifierComparator. If the interactions do not have any identifiers, it will compare the shortnames (case sensitive, shortname null comes always after)

InteractionBaseComparator

public InteractionBaseComparator(Comparator<Xref> identifierComparator,
                                 Comparator<CvTerm> cvTermComparator)

Constructor for InteractionBaseComparator.

Parameters:

identifierComparator - a Comparator object.

cvTermComparator - a Comparator object.

InteractionBaseComparator

public InteractionBaseComparator(CollectionComparator<Xref> identifierComparator,
                                 Comparator<CvTerm> cvTermComparator)

Constructor for InteractionBaseComparator.

Parameters:

identifierComparator - a CollectionComparator object.

cvTermComparator - a Comparator object.

Method Detail

getCvTermComparator

public Comparator<CvTerm> getCvTermComparator()

Getter for the field cvTermComparator.

Returns:

a Comparator object.

getIdentifierCollectionComparator

public CollectionComparator<Xref> getIdentifierCollectionComparator()

Getter for the field identifierCollectionComparator.

Returns:

a CollectionComparator object.

getIdentifierComparator

public Comparator<Xref> getIdentifierComparator()

Getter for the field identifierComparator.

Returns:

a Comparator object.

compare

public int compare(Interaction interaction1,
                   Interaction interaction2)

It will first compare the interaction types using UnambiguousCvTermComparator. Then it will compare the rigids (case sensitive, null rigids always come after). Then it will compare the identifiers using UnambiguousExternalIdentifierComparator. If the interactions do not have any identifiers, it will compare the shortnames (case sensitive, shortname null comes always after)

Specified by:

compare in interface Comparator<Interaction>

Parameters:

interaction1 - a Interaction object.

interaction2 - a Interaction object.

Returns:

a int.
