PrintResult

protected static void PrintResult(LexItem out,
                                  int flowNum,
                                  boolean mutateFlag)

Print the string representation of the transformation results.

Parameters:

out - an output LexItem of a transformation

flowNum - flow number, a number indicates which flow produced the output

mutateFlag - a boolean flag is used to append or not the mutate information if the value is true or false.

UpdateLexItem

protected static LexItem UpdateLexItem(LexItem in,
                                       java.lang.String target,
                                       java.lang.String flowName,
                                       long category,
                                       long inflection,
                                       java.lang.String details,
                                       java.lang.String mutateInfo,
                                       boolean appendFlowFlag)

Update data for a LexItem. This method must be called after the transformation of a Lvg flow component.

Parameters:

in - the LexItem to be updated

target - target term for updating

flowName - the abbreviation name of the flow component of the tranformation

category - category to be assigned. if the value is UPDATE, the category will assigned to all bits or source if the source is or is not 0

inflection - inflection to be assigned. if the value is UPDATE, the category will assigned to all bits or source if the source is or is not 0

details - the detail transform information for all flow components in a flow

mutateInfo - the addition mutate information for a flow component. The infomation on the last flow component will be used if there are more than one flow component in the flow.

appendFlowFlag - a flag for appending flow history

Returns:

an LexItem with updated data.

UpdateLexItem
