Constructor Detail

VirtualTuple

public VirtualTuple()
Constructs from nothing.


VirtualTuple

public VirtualTuple(VirtualData data)
Constructs from a virtual data object.

Parameters:
data - A virtual data object.

VirtualTuple

public VirtualTuple(VirtualData[] datas)
Constructs from a 1-D array of virtual data objects. Order is preserved.

Parameters:
datas - A 1-D array of virtual data objects.
Method Detail

size

public int size()
Returns the number of components in this tuple.

Returns:
The number of components in this tuple.

add

public void add(VirtualData data)
Adds a component to this tuple.

Parameters:
data - The component to be added.

getType

public MathType getType()
                 throws VisADException
Gets the VisAD MathType of this virtual tuple.

Specified by:
getType in class VirtualData
Returns:
The VisAD MathType of the merged data items or null if no data items.
Throws:
VisADException - VisAD failure.

get

public VirtualData get(int index)
                throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
Gets a component of this tuple.

Parameters:
index - The index of the component to get.
Returns:
The index-th component.
Throws:
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

replace

public void replace(int index,
                    VirtualData data)
             throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
Replaces a component of this tuple.

Parameters:
index - The index of the component to replace.
data - The new component.
Throws:
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

getData

public DataImpl getData(Context context)
                 throws VisADException,
                        RemoteException,
                        IOException
Gets the VisAD data object of this tuple, in context.

Specified by:
getData in class VirtualData
Parameters:
context - The context for retrieving the data object.
Returns:
The VisAD data object or null if there is no data.
Throws:
VisADException - Couldn't create necessary VisAD object.
RemoteException - Remote access failure.
IOException - I/0 failure.

clear

public void clear()
