public abstract class SegmentPropagatorInequalityConstraintEvaluator extends Object implements IEvaluator
evaluator for SegmentPropagatorInequalityConstraint
used in a ParameterOptimizer. Instances of this type return some value
computed from the SegmentListResults of all the results of propagation up to the end of the final
segment in the SegmentListPropagator that has the ParameterOptimizer
that has this constraint.
Be aware that concrete types of this can pull results from any or all of the SegmentListResults passed
into it; this base type does not limit you to just obtaining results from a single SegmentPropagator.
If your concrete type is meant to work with SegmentResults from a single segment, your
constraint evaluator should store a reference to the SegmentDefinition and call
SegmentResults.getResultsOfSegment(agi.foundation.segmentpropagation.SegmentDefinition).

See ICloneWithContext.clone(CopyContext) for more information about how to implement this constructor

CopyContext.
The following example shows how to implement this method for an evaluator that contains a nested evaluator:
@Override
public final void updateEvaluatorReferences(CopyContext context) {
m_nestedEvaluator = context.updateReference(m_nestedEvaluator);
}
This method is called by EvaluatorGroup and usually does not need to be
called directly by users. EvaluatorGroup uses this method to replace references
to shared evaluators with references to caching versions of the evaluators.
To implement this method, call CopyContext.updateReference(T) on each evaluator reference
held by your evaluator and assign the return value back to the field.
updateEvaluatorReferences in interface IEvaluatorcontext - The context that specifies the reference mapping.public abstract Object clone(CopyContext context)
This method should be implemented to call a copy constructor on the class of the
object being cloned. The copy constructor should take the CopyContext as a parameter
in addition to the existing instance to copy. The copy constructor should first call
CopyContext.addObjectMapping(T, T) to identify the newly constructed instance
as a copy of the existing instance. It should then copy all fields, using
CopyContext.updateReference(T) to copy any reference fields.
A typical implementation of ICloneWithContext:
public static class MyClass implements ICloneWithContext {
public MyClass(MyClass existingInstance, CopyContext context) {
context.addObjectMapping(existingInstance, this);
someReference = context.updateReference(existingInstance.someReference);
}
@Override
public final Object clone(CopyContext context) {
return new MyClass(this, context);
}
private Object someReference;
}
In general, all fields that are reference types should be copied with a call to
CopyContext.updateReference(T). There are a couple of exceptions:
If one of these exceptions applies, the CopyContext should be given an opportunity
to update the reference before the reference is copied explicitly. Use
CopyContext.updateReference(T) to update the reference. If CopyContext.updateReference(T) returns
the original object, indicating that the context does not have a replacement registered,
then copy the object manually by invoking a Clone method, a copy constructor, or by manually
constructing a new instance and copying the values.
alwaysCopy = context.updateReference(existingInstance.alwaysCopy);
if (existingInstance.alwaysCopy != null && alwaysCopy == existingInstance.alwaysCopy) {
alwaysCopy = (AlwaysCopy) existingInstance.alwaysCopy.clone(context);
}
If you are implementing an evaluator (a class that implements IEvaluator), the
IEvaluator.updateEvaluatorReferences(agi.foundation.infrastructure.CopyContext) method shares some responsibilities with the
copy context constructor. Code duplication can be avoided by doing the following:
CopyContext.updateReference(T). You should still call CopyContext.updateReference(T) on any references to
non-evaluators.
IEvaluator.updateEvaluatorReferences(agi.foundation.infrastructure.CopyContext) as the last line in the constructor and pass it the
same CopyContext passed to the constructor.
IEvaluator.updateEvaluatorReferences(agi.foundation.infrastructure.CopyContext) as normal. See the reference documentation for
IEvaluator.updateEvaluatorReferences(agi.foundation.infrastructure.CopyContext) for more information on implementing that method.

If this property is true, all methods and properties are guaranteed to be thread safe.
Conceptually, an object that returns true for this method acts as if there is a lock
protecting each method and property such that only one thread at a time can be inside any method or
property in the class. In reality, such locks are generally not used and are in fact discouraged. However,
the user must not experience any exceptions or inconsistent behavior that would not be experienced if such
locks were used.
If this property is false, the behavior when using this class from multiple threads
simultaneously is undefined and may include inconsistent results and exceptions. Clients wishing to use
multiple threads should call CopyForAnotherThread.copy(T) to get a separate instance of the
object for each thread.

This method is called by EvaluatorGroup to create a caching version of an evaluator
that is shared between multiple computations.
To implement this method in your own evaluator, construct and return a caching version of the evaluator's base class.
For example, if your evaluator implements IEvaluator1 directly, return an instance of
CachingEvaluator. In many cases, such as when implementing a PointEvaluator
this method does not need to be overridden because the default implementation returns an appropriate
caching wrapper already. If you do not want the last value computed by your evaluator to ever be cached, or
if your evaluator does its own caching internally, this method can return this.
Shows an example implementation in an evaluator that implements IEvaluator1
directly, where T is double.

return new CachingEvaluator<Double>(this);
