org.somox.metrics.abstractmetrics.AbstractMetric

org.somox.metrics.naming.NameResemblance

All Implemented Interfaces:

IMetric

public class NameResemblance
extends AbstractMetric

NameResemblance metric. Counts for all Types in any of the two component candidates the similar names and divides it by the total amount of names. The names are trimmed before they are compared, i.e., their prefixes and suffixes are removed as configured on this metric's configuration tab.

initialize

public void initialize(Root gastModel,
                       SoMoXConfiguration somoxConfiguration,
                       java.util.Map<MetricID,IMetric> allMetrics,

                       ComponentToImplementingClassesHelper componentToImplementingClassesHelper)

Description copied from interface: IMetric

Initializes the Metric. Must be called before metrics are computed. Should be called again, if the model changed

Specified by:

initialize in interface IMetric

Overrides:

initialize in class AbstractMetric

Parameters:

gastModel - the Root object of the GAST model

somoxConfiguration - the configuration of the metric computation

allMetrics - A map of all metrics available in the running SoMoX instance, maps metricID to Metric implementation

accessGraph - A graph which contains the number of accesses from the source GASTClass to the target GASTClass for all edges in the

componentToImplementingClassesHelper - Helper initialized graph

isCommutative

public boolean isCommutative()

Specified by:

isCommutative in interface IMetric

Specified by:

isCommutative in class AbstractMetric

Returns:

true if the metric gives the same result if firstComponent and secondComponent are swapped

getLaunchConfigurationTab

public MetricTab getLaunchConfigurationTab()

Returns the GUI launch configuration tab that can be used to configure the metric. Override if the metric supplies a tab

Specified by:

getLaunchConfigurationTab in interface IMetric

Overrides:

getLaunchConfigurationTab in class AbstractMetric

getMID

public MetricID getMID()

Returns the Metric ID of the Metric

Returns:

the metric id of the instance

isNormalised

public boolean isNormalised()

Returns:

whether the metric is normalized. If it is normalized, values of this metric must be between 0.0 and 1.0.
