Detailed Description

template<class Self>
struct vcsn::algebra::FreeMonoidBase< Self >

Structural element for free monoid.

FreeMonoidBase is the mother class of free monoids. A free monoid A* is a monoid generated by an alphabet A and which provides a way of iterating through letters of words.


Member Typedef Documentation

typedef virtual_types<Self>::alphabet_t alphabet_t
 

The type of the alphabet A.

typedef alphabet_t::letter_t letter_t
 

The type of letter hold by the alphabet.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

FreeMonoidBase  )  [protected]
 

Default constructor accessor.

FreeMonoidBase const FreeMonoidBase< Self > &  m  )  [protected]
 

Copy constructor accessor.


Member Function Documentation

FreeMonoidBase< Self >::alphabet_t & alphabet  ) 
 

Alphabet's accessor.

Reimplemented in FreeMonoid.

const FreeMonoidBase< Self >::alphabet_t & alphabet  )  const
 

Alphabet's const accessor.

Reimplemented in FreeMonoid.

bool contains const Element< OtherS, T > &  other  )  const [inherited]
 

Specialization of containts that always return false.

Indeed, elements structured by a particular type are always incompatible with structural elements of another type.

self_t& self  )  [inherited]
 

Accessor to the real type.

This accessor is intended to be used by implementations in this class and derivated structures to obtain a reference to the structural element with its most derivated type.
