Class AcceptableArgument<C>

java.lang.Object
  org.argkit.Argument<C>
      org.argkit.ArgumentDecorator<C>
          org.argkit.dung.AcceptableArgument<C>

Type Parameters:

C - (Argument's) claim class

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, Acceptable

public class AcceptableArgument<C>
extends ArgumentDecorator<C>
implements Acceptable

An ArgumentDecorator that implements a Boolean acceptable field. This field is implemented as Boolean (and not a boolean primitive type) so that it can be null.

The goal of this class is to be able to wrap an Argument and expose the isAcceptable method, but also to be able to provide access to additional information that sub-classes possess, hence access to the decorated Argument is provided with the getArgument method.
