  • Constructor Details

    • COptQuestObjective

      public COptQuestObjective()
      Default constructor

    • COptQuestObjective

      public COptQuestObjective(String name)
      Constructor with objective name.
      Parameters:
      name - - objective name

  • Method Details

    • SetMaximize

      public void SetMaximize()
      Sets the goal of the optimization to maximize the objective value.

    • IsMaximize

      public boolean IsMaximize()
      Returns true if the goal of the objective is to maximize the objective value. Returns false if the goal of the objective is to minimize the objective value.
      Returns:
      true if the objective is being maximized. False if it is being minimized.

    • SetMinimize

      public void SetMinimize()
      Sets the goal of the optimization to minimize the objective value.

    • IsMinimize

      public boolean IsMinimize()
      Returns true if the goal of the objective is to minimize the objective value. Returns false if the goal of the objective is to maximize the objective value.
      Returns:
      true if the objective is being minimized. False if it is being maximized.

    • IsLinear

      public boolean IsLinear()
      Returns true if the objective is a linear function. This is true if the user defined the objective as a COptQuestObjectiveFunction or if the user defined the objective as a COptQuestStringObjective and the string expression is a linear expression using decision variables and coefficients.
      Returns:
      true if the objective is a linear function of the decision variables.

    • SetName

      public void SetName(String name)
      Assigns a name to the objective function

    • GetName

      public String GetName()
      Returns:
      the name assigned to the objective

    • SetMultiobjectiveGoal

      public void SetMultiobjectiveGoal(double min, double max)

    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object

    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object o)
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
