Interface ParserMathObject

All Superinterfaces:

MathObject, java.io.Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

WCMAnimatorBean, WCMDataTableInputBean, WCMDerivativeBean, WCMExpressionFunctionBean, WCMExpressionInputBean, WCMMouseVariableBean, WCMTableFunctionBean, WCMVariableBean, WCMVariableInputBean, WCMVariableJSliderBean

public interface ParserMathObject
extends MathObject

This interface provides a standard way for WCM beans to tell a WCMParserBean how to add them properly to a parser. Some objects, like WCMVariableBean's and any class that implements ParserExtension can just be added to a parser directly, so these classes just return themselves in their getMathObject methods. Other classes, like WCMVariableInputBean, need to have getVariable() called on them and the result added to the parser. The getMathObject method in this interface hides this from any class that wants to add one of these beans to a parser.
