application: common

This artificial application gathers functionality shared by many "real" applications. While most users can probably do without looking into this you may find some useful functions here.


Objects

  •  

    This is the common base class of all `big' objects in polymake. It is included in the online help because it provides several useful methods for scripting and interactive use.

    User Methods of Core::Object

    •  
      apply_rule (pattern)

      Executes the specified production rule. If the object does not possess enough initial properties to provide all required rule sources, or any of its preconditions are not satisfied, an exception is raised.

      Parameters
      Stringpattern
      : either a label (see prefer) or a rule header. The rule header must exactly match the definition in the rulefile, up to white spaces around property names. If the given pattern matches headers of several rules, or the given label is associated with several rules, the rule chain with smallest total weight (including the rules supplying the source properties) is chosen.
    •  
      disable_rules (pattern)

      Temporarily disable production rules matching given pattern for an object. Rules are re-enabled after the complete execution of the current script or input expression in interactive mode.

      Works much like the user function disable_rules but only affecting the given object.

      Parameters
      Stringpattern
      : either a label (see prefer) or a rule header. The rule header must exactly match the definition in the rulefile, up to white spaces around property names. If the given pattern matches headers of several rules, or the given label is associated with several rules, they all will be disabled regardless their precoditions, weights, or other attributes.
    •  
      dont_save ()

      Clears the `changed' flag in the object, so that it won't be saved in the XML file it stems from. This method is primarily designed for unit tests, but could be also useful in interactive mode if you want to revert all recent changes and reload the object from the data file.

    •  
      get_schedule (request) → Core::RuleChain

      Compose an optimal chain of production rules providing all requested properties. The returned RuleChain object can be applied to the original object as well as to any other object with the same initial set of properties. If no feasible rule chain exists, `undef' is returned.

      To watch the rule scheduler at work, e.g. to see announcements about tried preconditions, you may temporarily increase the verbosity levels $Verbose::rules and $Verbose::scheduler.

      Parameters
      Stringrequest
      : name of a property with optional alternatives or a property path in dotted notation. Several requests may be listed.
      Returns
      Core::RuleChain

      Flexible

      This is a pseudo-type for documentation purposes only. Many options of visualization functions modifying the appearance of some set of graphical elements like points, edges, facets, etc. accept a wide range of possible values, allowing for different grades of flexibility (and complexity):

      SCALAR the same attribute value is applied to all elements ARRAY each element gets its individual attribute value HASH elements found in the hash get their individual attribute values, for the rest the appropriate default applies SUB a piece of code computing the attribute value for the given element

      Unless specified explicitly in the detailed option description, the indices, keys, or subroutine arguments used for retrieval of the attribute values are just the zero-based ordinal numbers of the elements.
