Field Summary

String	languages The languages for this lookup, e.g.
String	list the list represented by this lookup
String	majorType Tha major type for this lookup, e.g.
String	minorType The minor type for this lookup, e.g.
String	oClass the ontology class of this lookup according to the mapping between list and ontology
String	ontology the ontology ID

Constructor Summary

Lookup(String theList, String major, String minor, String theLanguages)
Creates a new Lookup value with the given major and minor types and languages.

Method Summary

boolean	equals(Object obj) Two lookups are equal if they have the same string representation (major type and minor type).
int	hashCode()
String	toString() Returns a string representation of this lookup in the format This method is used in equals() that caused this method to implement dualistic behaviour : i.e. whenever class and ontology are filled then use the long version,incl. list, ontology and class; else return just majorType.minorType
