OEInteractionHintComponentTypeBase

class OEInteractionHintComponentTypeBase

The OEInteractionHintComponentTypeBase is an abstract class that enables to type molecule and fragments stored in a OEInteractionHintContainer object.

The following classes derive from this class:

• OELigandInteractionHintComponent

• OEProteinInteractionHintComponent

Constructors

OEInteractionHintComponentTypeBase(const std::string& name)

Creates an component type with the given name (identifier).

name

A unique string representing a specific component type.

OEInteractionHintComponentTypeBase(const OEInteractionHintComponentTypeBase& rhs)

Copy constructor.

CreateCopy

OEInteractionHintComponentTypeBase* CreateCopy() const = 0

Virtual const constructor which allows copying of concrete derived objects using a reference to this base class.

GetName

std::string GetName() const

Returns the name (identifier) of the connection type.

IsValid

bool IsValid(const OEChem::OEMolBase &) const = 0

This is a virtual method that has to be implemented in the concrete derived classes to evaluate whether the given molecule is valid for for the given concrete component type.
