parseInstance

public IProblem parseInstance(String filename)
                       throws ParseFormatException,
                              IOException,
                              ContradictionException

This is the usual method to feed a solver with a benchmark.

Parameters:

filename - the fully qualified name of the benchmark. The filename extension may by used to detect which type of benchmarks it is (SAT, OPB, MAXSAT, etc).

Returns:

the problem to solve (an ISolver in fact).

Throws:

ParseFormatException - if an error occurs during parsing.

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

ContradictionException - if the problem is found trivially inconsistent.

parseInstance

public abstract IProblem parseInstance(InputStream in)
                                throws ParseFormatException,
                                       ContradictionException,
                                       IOException

Read a file from a stream. It is important to note that benchmarks are usually encoded in ASCII, not UTF8. As such, the only reasonable way to feed a solver from a stream is to use a stream.

Parameters:

in - a stream containing the benchmark.

Returns:

the problem to solve (an ISolver in fact).

Throws:

ParseFormatException - if an error occurs during parsing.

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

ContradictionException - if the problem is found trivially inconsistent.

parseInstance

@Deprecated
public IProblem parseInstance(Reader in)
                       throws ParseFormatException,
                              ContradictionException,
                              IOException

Deprecated.

Read a file from a reader. Do not use that method, it is no longer supported.

Parameters:

in - a stream containing the benchmark.

Returns:

the problem to solve (an ISolver in fact).

Throws:

ParseFormatException - if an error occurs during parsing.

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

ContradictionException - if the problem is found trivially inconsistent.

decode

@Deprecated
public abstract String decode(int[] model)

Deprecated.

Produce a model using the reader format.

Parameters:

model - a model using the Dimacs format.

Returns:

a human readable view of the model.

decode

public abstract void decode(int[] model,
          PrintWriter out)

Produce a model using the reader format on a provided printwriter.

Parameters:

model - a model using the Dimacs format.

out - the place where to display the model
