Class Template

    java.lang.Object
      |
      +--org.opencyc.templateparser.Template

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.lang.Comparable

public class Template
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.lang.Comparable

Contains a template for parsing a particular utterance, phrase or sentence into an performative and arguments.

The user creates a template by telling the following:

> In the context of "everything" the statement "what is the capitol of ?country" means (query (#$capitolCityOfCountry ?city ?country)).

Field Summary
`protected CycFort` | `mt` The microtheory in which this template applies, or null if the execution of the performative does not require Cyc.
`protected Performative` | `performative` the performative associated with this template
`protected CycList` | `templateElements` the elements of this template

Constructor Summary
`protected` | `Template(CycFort mt, CycList templateElements, Performative performative)` Constructs a new Template object given the template elements and performative.

Method Summary
`int` | `compareTo(java.lang.Object object)` Compares this object with the specified object for order.
`boolean` | `equals(java.lang.Object object)` Returns `true` iff some object equals this object
`CycFort` | `getMt()` Returns the microtheory
`Performative` | `getPerformative()` Returns the performative.
`CycList` | `getTemplateElements()` Returns the template elements
`java.lang.String` | `toString()` Returns the string representation of the `Template`

Field Detail

### mt

    protected CycFort mt

  The microtheory in which this template applies, or null if the execution of the performative does not require Cyc.

### templateElements

    protected CycList templateElements

  the elements of this template

### performative

    protected Performative performative

  the performative associated with this template

Constructor Detail

### Template

    protected Template(CycFort mt,
                       CycList templateElements,
                       Performative performative)

  Constructs a new Template object given the template elements and performative.
  Parameters:
    `mt` - the microtheory in which this template applies, or null if the execution of the performative does not require Cyc
    `templateElements` - the template elements
    `performative` - the performative

Method Detail

### getMt

    public CycFort getMt()

  Returns the microtheory
  Returns:
    the microtheory in which this template applies

### getTemplateElements

    public CycList getTemplateElements()

  Returns the template elements
  Returns:
    the template elements

### getPerformative

    public Performative getPerformative()

  Returns the performative.
  Returns:
    the performative associated with this template

### compareTo

    public int compareTo(java.lang.Object object)

  Compares this object with the specified object for order. Returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object.
  Specified by:
    `compareTo` in interface `java.lang.Comparable`
  Parameters:
    `object` - the reference object with which to compare.
  Returns:
    a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object

### equals

    public boolean equals(java.lang.Object object)

  Returns `true` iff some object equals this object
  Overrides:
    `equals` in class `java.lang.Object`
  Parameters:
    `object` - the `Object` for equality comparison
  Returns:
    equals `boolean` value indicating equality or non-equality.

### toString

    public java.lang.String toString()

  Returns the string representation of the `Template`
  Overrides:
    `toString` in class `java.lang.Object`
  Returns:
    the representation of the `Template` as a `String`
