public abstract class SegmentElement

Constructors

SegmentElement()

Declaration
protected SegmentElement()

Methods

AcceptSegmentElementVisitor(ISegmentElementVisitor)

Visitor pattern implementation. Derived classes should call back on the appropriate method on the visitor.

Declaration
public abstract void AcceptSegmentElementVisitor(ISegmentElementVisitor visitor)
Parameters
Type Name Description
ISegmentElementVisitor visitor

The visitor instance (must not be null)

Duplicate()

Creates a new instance that is a deep copy of this instance.

Declaration
public abstract SegmentElement Duplicate()
Returns
Type Description
SegmentElement

A new instance that is a deep copy of this instance.

GetSimilarity(SegmentElement)

Declaration
public SegmentElement.Similarity GetSimilarity(SegmentElement other)
Parameters
Type Name Description
SegmentElement other
Returns
Type Description
SegmentElementSimilarity

GetSimilarity(SegmentElement, bool)

Declaration
public SegmentElement.Similarity GetSimilarity(SegmentElement other, bool allowCompatibility)
Parameters
Type Name Description
SegmentElement other
bool allowCompatibility
Returns
Type Description
SegmentElementSimilarity

GetSimilarityAsync(SegmentElement)

Computes the degree of similarity to another instance.

Declaration
public Task<SegmentElement.Similarity> GetSimilarityAsync(SegmentElement other)
Parameters
Type Name Description
SegmentElement other

The other instance.
Returns
Type Description
TaskSegmentElementSimilarity

A value indicating the degree of similarity to the provided segment element.

GetSimilarityAsync(SegmentElement, bool)

Computes the degree of similarity to another instance, with the option of more flexible type compatibility (e.g. treat 'cm' and 'ft' as same type, because both measure length)

Declaration
public Task<SegmentElement.Similarity> GetSimilarityAsync(SegmentElement other, bool allowCompatibility)
Parameters
Type Name Description
SegmentElement other

The other instance.
bool allowCompatibility

If True, more flexible type compatibility will be used if available for the comparison
Returns
Type Description
TaskSegmentElementSimilarity

GetWeakHashCode()

Returns a hash code which does not depend on tag anchors in the segment. This can be used for translation tracking in bilingual scenarios.

Declaration
public abstract int GetWeakHashCode()
Returns
Type Description
int

A hash code which is independent of tag anchors.
