Enum Constant	Description
EXHAUSTIVE	All possible ways to derive a target fact are returned, including ways to derive the explicitly given facts.
SHORTEST	One shortest way to derive a target fact is returned.
TO_EXPLICIT	All possible ways to derive a target fact from the explicitly given facts are returned.

Enum Constant Details

SHORTEST

public static final ExplanationType SHORTEST

One shortest way to derive a target fact is returned. If a fact has several explanations of the same length, ties are broken arbitrarily.

TO_EXPLICIT

public static final ExplanationType TO_EXPLICIT

All possible ways to derive a target fact from the explicitly given facts are returned. Explicitly given facts that are also derived by the rules are not explained.

EXHAUSTIVE

public static final ExplanationType EXHAUSTIVE

All possible ways to derive a target fact are returned, including ways to derive the explicitly given facts.

Method Details

values

public static ExplanationType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static ExplanationType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
