Method Detail

clone

public Object clone()
             throws CloneNotSupportedException

Description copied from class: AbstractGame

Any inheriting class with non-primitive members must override this clone() method to provide a full deep copy of the object, which is essential for spawnChild() to work correctly. Ay overriding of this method should still begin with a call to super.clone(), though. Also, note that this clone() method does not clone the embedded GameMove objects, i.e. those are expected not to change (except for their heuristics, which shouldn't affect game functionality) - or the subclass will have to take care of this.

Specified by:

clone in interface GamePlay

Overrides:

clone in class AbstractGame

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides:

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

listLegalMoves

protected GameMove[] listLegalMoves()

Description copied from class: AbstractGame

listLegalMoves() returns the legal moves for this game. This function is used by the final method getLegalMoves(), which is a wrapper around this method to avoid the overhead of generating the legal moves over and over again when called multiple times (as calculating legal moves is commonly expensive). Note that implementations of listLegalMoves() must not check for gameOver(), unless gameOver() is overridden not to check for listLegalMoves(). The same applies to isLegalMove().

Specified by:

listLegalMoves in class AbstractGame

pushMove

protected boolean pushMove(GameMove move)

Description copied from class: AbstractGame

pushMove takes a GameMove and alters the game according to to the move.

Specified by:

pushMove in class AbstractGame

Returns:

true only if the move was put on the board successfully.

popMove

protected boolean popMove()

always returns false

Specified by:

popMove in class AbstractGame

Returns:

true only if the move was taken back successfully.

nextPlayer

public int nextPlayer()

Description copied from interface: GamePlay

nextPlayer() returns the integer representing the game role of the next player. If there is no next player, it is assumed that there are no more legal moves left in the game, in which case the value of nextPlayer() should be irrelevant.

getWinner

public int[] getWinner()

Description copied from interface: GamePlay

getWinner() returns an array of all winning game roles - as there could be more than one winner. If the function returns null, it doesn't necessarily mean that the game is still in progress, but it could also mean that there is no winner in this game even though it is over (alternatively, an empty array could be returned depending on the requirements of the game). Also, if winners are returned, the game could still be in progress. Maybe, a game keeps playing to determine who is the second winner, etc.

getWidth

public int getWidth()

getHeight

public int getHeight()

isOpen

public boolean isOpen(int column,
                      int row)

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from class: AbstractGame

overridden to provide useful information about the game

Overrides:

toString in class AbstractGame
