Method Detail

handleAverages

public static void handleAverages(IOContainer evalOutput,
                                  java.util.List<AverageVector> averageVectors)
                           throws OperatorException

Searches for the average vectors in the given IOContainer and fills the list if it is empty or build the averages. Only performance vectors are averaged.

Throws:

OperatorException

handleAverages

public static void handleAverages(IOContainer evalOutput,
                                  java.util.List<AverageVector> averageVectors,
                                  boolean onlyPerformanceVectors)
                           throws OperatorException

Searches for the average vectors in the given IOContainer and fills the list if it is empty or build the averages. The boolean flag onlyPerformanceVectors indicates if the average should be built from PerformanceVectors only or from other AverageVectors too. Throws a NullPointerException if averageVectors is null.

Throws:

OperatorException

getPerformanceVector

public static PerformanceVector getPerformanceVector(java.util.List<AverageVector> averageVectors)

Returns the first performance vector in the given list or null if no performance vectors exist.
