Class MolComparator

java.lang.Object
chemaxon.sss.search.MolComparator
@PublicApi public class MolComparator extends Object
Interface for comparing atoms, bonds, etc. against different criteria. Its subclasses are used by the search classes. Methods to be overridden: compareAtoms(int, int), compareBonds(int, int), compareHit(int[], int). The comparison methods in this class are empty convenience methods that always return true. The init and unInit methods should call super method if overridden.

Utility methods to get original query and target atom molecular indexes are: getOrigQueryAtom(int), getOrigTargetAtom(int), getOrigQueryNeighbour(int), getOrigTargetNeighbour(int).

By using MolComparators one can introduce extra matching conditions. Working examples can be found here.

    • compareAtoms

      public boolean compareAtoms(int a1, int a2)
      Compares atoms of indices a1 and a2. Indices are internal search indices, and not refer to the molecule! This method is called during initial match matrix creation.
      Parameters:
      a1 - atom in query (search internal index)
      a2 - atom in target (search internal index)
      Returns:

      a1 - internal target atom index
      Returns:
      The atom index in the target molecule or -1 if no corresponding atom exists. (e.g. implicit H. In this case, getOrigTargetNeighbour(int) may be helpful.)

    • getOrigQueryAtom

      public int getOrigQueryAtom(int a1)
      Converts search internal atom index (in the query) to the original atom index in the query molecule.
      Parameters:

      Returns:
      The atom index in the query molecule or -1 if no corresponding atom exists. (e.g. implicit H. In this case, getOrigQueryNeighbour(int) may be helpful.)

    • getOrigTargetNeighbour

      public int getOrigTargetNeighbour(int a)
      For a search internal atom index (in the target), returns a neighbour atom index (original atom index in the target molecule).

      a - internal query atom index
      Returns:
      The neighbour atom index in the molecule or -1 if no neighbour atom exists. (e.g. isolated atom)

    • compareHit

      public boolean compareHit(int[] internalHit, int internalHitLength)
      Checks a partial hit during the search algorithm. Useful if the custom matching criteria must use multiple query or target atoms.
      Parameters:
      internalHit - the current hit vector from the associated search object that contains atom indices of internal search representation. Strictly read only! The values of this array are incremented by 1 because of algorithmic reasons. This vector may contain only a partial match, so possibly not all query atoms have associated matchings.
      You can get original atom indexes by using getOrigQueryAtom(int) (from array indexes) and getOrigTargetAtom(int) (from array values - do not forget to call a decreased value: getOrigTargetAtom(internalHit[i]-1) ).
      For efficiency reasons, an array longer than necessary is returned, parameter internalHitLength contains the effective length of the array.
      The search algorithm is incremental, so for the call history of this method a (partial) hit vector is preceded by its shorter prefixes of size at least 2. (This means that for a partial hit vector [1, 5, 2, 3], hit vectors [1, 5] and [1, 5, 2] have already been checked.)
      internalHitLength - the effective length of internalHit.
      Returns:
      true if the partial hit describes a correct query-target correspondence.

      Returns:
      USEFUL (default), MAYBE_USEFUL or NOT_USEFUL.

    • isUsefulForTarget

      public int isUsefulForTarget()
