 Returns the zero of the monoid (if add_kind).
bool contains (const Element< FreeMonoid< A >, T > &elt) const
 Check if a given element is compatible with the structural element.
bool contains (const Element< OtherS, T > &other) const
 Specialization of contains that always returns false.

Detailed Description

template<typename A>
struct vcsn::algebra::FreeMonoid< A >

Implementation of a free monoid which aggregates its alphabet.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

FreeMonoid ( const A &  a)

Constructor based on an alphabet, with an adaptative monoid representation.

Definition at line 31 of file free_monoid.hxx.

FreeMonoid ( const A &  a,
monoid_rep_t  mr 
)

Constructor based on an alphabet, with a constraint monoid representation.


Member Function Documentation

A & alphabet ( )

Alphabet's accessor.

Bug:
FIXME: this interface should not exist (s.e. are const once instantiated)

Reimplemented from FreeMonoidBase< FreeMonoid< A > >.

Definition at line 68 of file free_monoid.hxx.

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

Specialization of contains that always returns 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.

To be used by implementations in this class and derived structures to obtain a reference to the structural element with its most derived type.

const self_t& self ( ) const [inherited]

Accessor to the real type.

To be used by implementations in this class and derived structures to obtain a reference to the structural element with its most derived type.
