isAllowed

public boolean isAllowed(int a_chromIndex,
                         ProgramChromosome a_pc,
                         CommandGene[] a_functionSet,
                         CommandGene a_function,
                         java.lang.Class a_returnType,
                         int a_subReturnTyp,
                         int m_index)

Checks if the given a_function is allowed in the current context.

Specified by:

isAllowed in interface ISingleNodeValidator

Parameters:

a_chromIndex - index of the chromosome within the GP program

a_pc - the instance of the ProgramChromosome

a_functionSet - the current function set within the program chromosome (given as input parameter for convenience, could also be determined via a_pc.m_genes)

a_function - the function that should be added, if allowed

a_returnType - the class the return type is required to have

a_subReturnTyp - the sub return type the return type is required to have

m_index - the index of the up-to-date last command gene in the program chromosome

Returns:

true if a_function's class exists within a_functionSet
