Class MultipleLabelIterator

java.lang.Object
  com.rapidminer.operator.Operator
      com.rapidminer.operator.OperatorChain
          com.rapidminer.operator.meta.MultipleLabelIterator

All Implemented Interfaces:

ConfigurationListener, PreviewListener, ParameterHandler, LoggingHandler

public class MultipleLabelIterator
extends OperatorChain

Performs the inner operator for all label attributes, i.e. special attributes whose name starts with "label". In each iteration one of the multiple labels is used as label. The results of the inner operators are collected and returned. The example set will be consumed during the iteration.

Method Detail

apply

public IOObject[] apply()
                 throws OperatorException

Description copied from class: OperatorChain

Applies all inner operators. The input to this operator becomes the input of the first inner operator. The latter's output is passed to the second inner operator and so on. Note to subclassers: If subclasses (for example wrappers) want to make use of this method remember to call exactly this method (super.apply()) and do not call super.apply(IOContainer) erroneously which will result in an infinite loop.

Overrides:

apply in class OperatorChain

Returns:

the last inner operator's output or the input itself if the chain is empty.

Throws:

OperatorException

getInputClasses

public java.lang.Class<?>[] getInputClasses()

Description copied from class: Operator

Returns the classes that are needed as input. May be null or an empty (no desired input). As default, all delivered input objects are consumed and must be also delivered as output in both Operator.getOutputClasses() and Operator.apply() if this is necessary. This default behavior can be changed by overriding Operator.getInputDescription(Class). Subclasses which implement this method should not make use of parameters since this method is invoked by getParameterTypes(). Therefore, parameters are not fully available at this point of time and this might lead to exceptions. Please use InputDescriptions instead.

Specified by:

getInputClasses in class Operator

getOutputClasses

public java.lang.Class<?>[] getOutputClasses()

Description copied from class: Operator

Returns the classes that are guaranteed to be returned by apply() as additional output. Please note that input objects which should not be consumed must also be defined by this method (e.g. an example set which is changed but not consumed in the case of a preprocessing operator must be defined in both, the methods Operator.getInputClasses() and Operator.getOutputClasses()). The default behavior for input consumation is defined by Operator.getInputDescription(Class) and can be changed by overwriting this method. Objects which are not consumed (defined by changing the implementation in Operator.getInputDescription(Class)) must not be defined as additional output in this method.

May deliver null or an empy array (no additional output is produced or guaranteed). Must return the class array of delivered output objects otherwise.

Specified by:

getOutputClasses in class Operator

getMinNumberOfInnerOperators

public int getMinNumberOfInnerOperators()

Description copied from class: OperatorChain

Returns the minimum number of inner operators.

Specified by:

getMinNumberOfInnerOperators in class OperatorChain

getMaxNumberOfInnerOperators

public int getMaxNumberOfInnerOperators()

Description copied from class: OperatorChain

Returns the maximum number of inner operators.

Specified by:

getMaxNumberOfInnerOperators in class OperatorChain

shouldReturnInnerOutput

public boolean shouldReturnInnerOutput()

Returns true since this operator chain should just return the output of the last inner operator.

Overrides:

shouldReturnInnerOutput in class OperatorChain

getInnerOperatorCondition

public InnerOperatorCondition getInnerOperatorCondition()

Returns a simple chain condition.

Specified by:

getInnerOperatorCondition in class OperatorChain
