Title: TranslatedWarningDoubleParameter

Description: A subclass of a warning double parameter so it inherits all behavior of the parent class. See the parent class javadocs for a full description of it's behavior. Only the added features of this subclass will be outlined here.

The whole purpose of a TranslatedWarningDoubleParameter is to be a "wrapper" for a WarningDoubleParameter and translate all setting, getting values to the warning parameter. This Translated parameter becomes a proxy to the "wrapped" WarningParameter. In object-oriented design patterns this is called the "Decorator Pattern". Instead of subclassing you "wrap" (maintain a variable reference ) to the clss of interest. This class then slightly modifies the behavior of the "wrapped" class transparently. This helps eliminate proliferation of subclasses.

The TranslatedWarningDoubleParameter makes use of a second class, a TranslatorAPI that actually performs the translation back and fourth internally. An API was defined so that any type of implementation translation class could be passed in. This translation class is simply some function. The class acts as a pointer to a function, so you can swap out different functions without changing this class. Currently the only concrete translator class implemented is the LogTranslator.

The logical purpose of this class is to input values in one form, then translate them to the desired form, and use the translated values in a calculation. So with this in mind it is really the input values that are translated, and the translator puts them back in the correct form.

An example is that in our IMRTesterApplet we let users edit the IMR level in normal space using this Parameter class. The values are internally translated to log space in the contained WarningDoubleParameter. So the user only sees normal values for the current IMR level, and it's constraints, but internally the values are really in log space. The IMR needs the parameter in log space to perform it's calculations. It is much easier for a user to input normal values say 1-200, than the log of this range.

If the translate flag is set to false, this class then acts as a transparent proxy to the underlying WarningDoubleParameter. No translations are made.

trans

protected TranslatorAPI trans

Default translator is LogTranslator. The translator class is basically a pointer to a function with translate and reverse operations.

translate

protected boolean translate

If true, translation will occur on get, and setValue operations. If false this class acts as a passthrough to the underlying WarningDoubleParameter, in other words this subclass becomes transparent and has no affect.

param

protected WarningDoubleParameter param

Internal reference to the wrapped parameter

Constructor Detail

TranslatedWarningDoubleParameter

public TranslatedWarningDoubleParameter(WarningDoubleParameter param)

Allows setting the parameter upon construction. The translator defaults to the LogTranslator. This form allows passing in normal values that get translated to log values and set in the underlying parameter.

Note: No translation changes are applied to the passed in parameter. It is assumed that the parameter is already in translated log space.

TranslatedWarningDoubleParameter

public TranslatedWarningDoubleParameter(WarningDoubleParameter param,
                                        TranslatorAPI trans)

Allows setting the parameter for translation access, and setting the translator function upon construction.

Note: No translation changes are applied to the passed in parameter. It is assumed that the parameter is already in translated space.
