Method Detail

getName

public String getName()
Return a name for this builtin, normally this will be the name of the functor that will be used to invoke it.


getArgLength

public int getArgLength()
Return the expected number of arguments for this functor or 0 if the number is flexible.

Specified by:
getArgLength in interface Builtin
Overrides:
getArgLength in class BaseBuiltin

bodyCall

public boolean bodyCall(Node[] args,
                        int length,
                        RuleContext context)
This method is invoked when the builtin is called in a rule body.

Specified by:
bodyCall in interface Builtin
Overrides:
bodyCall in class BaseBuiltin
Parameters:
args - the array of argument values for the builtin, this is an array of Nodes, some of which may be Node_RuleVariables.
length - the length of the argument list, may be less than the length of the args array for some rule engines
context - an execution context giving access to other relevant data
Returns:
return true if the buildin predicate is deemed to have succeeded in the current environment
