Method Detail

isEquivalent

public static <T extends BioPAXElement> boolean isEquivalent(Set<? extends T> set1,
                                                             Set<? extends T> set2)

Type Parameters:

T - Both sets should be of type that extends from T.

Parameters:

set1 - First set to be checked.

set2 - Second set to be checked

Returns:

true iff both sets are of equal size and all objects in set1 has an equivalent object in set2.

containsEquivalent

public static boolean containsEquivalent(Set<? extends BioPAXElement> set,
                                         BioPAXElement query)

Parameters:

set - Set to test if it contains an element equivalent to query

query - BPE to look for equivalents in set

Returns:

true iff there is an element of set that is equivalent to query.

findEquivalentIntersection

public static <T extends BioPAXElement> Set<T> findEquivalentIntersection(Set<? extends T> set1,
                                                                          Set<? extends T> set2)

Type Parameters:

T - Both sets should be of type that extends from T.

Parameters:

set1 - First set to be checked.

set2 - Second set to be checked

Returns:

elements of set1 that has an equivalent element in set2

hasEquivalentIntersection

public static <T extends BioPAXElement> boolean hasEquivalentIntersection(Set<? extends T> set1,
                                                                          Set<? extends T> set2)

Type Parameters:

T - Both sets should be of type that extends from T.

Parameters:

set1 - First set to be checked.

set2 - Second set to be checked

Returns:

true iff there are at least one equivalent element between set1 and set2, or both sets are empty..
