Member Function Documentation

std::vector< PluginAtomPtr > FunctionPlugin::createAtoms ( ProgramCtx ctx) const [virtual]

Publish external computation sources to dlvhex.

This is the central location where the user's atoms are made public. dlvhex will call this function for all found plugins, which write their atoms in the provided map. This map associates strings with pointers to PluginAtom objects. The strings denote the name of the atom as it should be used in the program.

Override this method to publish your atoms.

Example:

   std::vector<PluginAtomPtr>
   createAtoms(ProgramCtx& ctx) const
   {
    std::vector<PluginAtomPtr> ret;
      PluginAtomPtr newatom1(new MyAtom1);
      PluginAtomPtr newatom2(new MyAtom2);
      ret["newatom1"] = newatom1;
      ret["newatom2"] = newatom2;
      return ret;
   }

Here, we assume to have defined atoms MyAtom1 and MyAtom2 derived from PluginAtom. These atom can now be used in a HEX-program with the predicate &newatom1[]() and &newatom2[]().

Provide parser modules.

This is the preferred way to extend the input language by supplying dlvhex with parser modules that plug into the HEX grammar and extend the syntax for valid program input.

See the QueryPlugin and the StrongNegationPlugin for example plugins that use this feature.

Rewriter for hex-programs.

The rewriters are called on the parsed HEX program (which may have been rewritten by a PluginConverter). Hence, a rewriter can expect a well-formed HEX-program represented in ProgramCtx::edb and ProgramCtx::idb as input and must of course also take care of keeping that representation correct program.

void FunctionPlugin::printUsage ( std::ostream &  o) const [virtual]

Output help message for this plugin.

void FunctionPlugin::processOptions ( std::list< const char * > &  pluginOptions,
ProgramCtx ctx 
) [virtual]

Processes options for this plugin.

If you override this method, remove all options your plugin recognizes from pluginOptions. (Do not free the pointers, the const char* directly come from argv.) You can store configuration of your plugin using PluginData and ProgramCtx::getPluginData (see there for more information.)
