LVG - API

Java Class Api - LvgLexItemApi( )

command line/Vector of LexItems output

PreProcess:

To instantiate an LvgLexItemApi object

String optionStr = new String("....");      // define the option string
LvgLexItemApi lvg = new LvgLexItemApi(optionStr);   // instantiate the LvgCmdApi

or

String optionStr = new String("....");      // define the option string
LvgLexItemApi lvg = new LvgLexItemApi( );           // instantiate the LvgCmdApi
lvg.SetOption(optionStr);                   // set the option

To Use other Api methods

lvg.SetPromptStr(promptStr);               // Set the prompt string
lvg.SetQuitStrList(quitStrList);           // Set quit string
lvg.IsLegalOption( );                      // check if the option is legal
lvg.PrintLvgHelp( );                       // Print out LVg help menu

Process:

ProcessLineLexItem( ): mutate an input term with Lvg prompt function

lvg.ProcessLineLexItem(String);           // Mutate the input term with interface prompt

MutateLexItem( ): mutate an input term without Lvg prompt function

lvg.MutateLexItem(String);                // Mutate the input term

ProcessLexItem( ): mutate an input LexItem

lvg.ProcessLexItem(LexItem);                // Mutate an input LexItem

ProcessLexItems( ): mutate input LexItems

lvg.ProcessLexItems(Vector);                // Mutate the input term

ProcessLexItemsFromFCO: mutate LexItems from Flow Compoment Outputs

lvg.ProcessLexItemsFromFCO(Vector);                // Mutate the input term

PostProcess:
A CleanUp( ) method must be called after using LvgCmdApi to disconnect database and close persistant tries.
```
lvg.CleanUp( );	                // Close database and files
	
```

Sample programs were developed to illustrate above usage.
