QuestionWithChoices
public QuestionWithChoices()
setChoices
public void setChoices(java.lang.String[] newChoices)
setChoicesTable
public void setChoicesTable(java.lang.String newValue)
getChoicesField
public java.lang.String getChoicesField()
setChoicesField
public void setChoicesField(java.lang.String newValue)
setChoicesIDField
public void setChoicesIDField(java.lang.String newValue)
setChoicesSQLWhere
public void setChoicesSQLWhere(java.lang.String where)
setChoicesTableUsingStandardFormat
public void setChoicesTableUsingStandardFormat(java.lang.String theChoicesTable,
java.lang.Integer theChoicesQuestionID)
- The standard format is a specific format for the database table for these answers.
(This feature is related to the tag QuestionsFromDatabase, which is not completely implemented yet)
setCacheRandomizeAnswerOrder
public void setCacheRandomizeAnswerOrder(boolean cacheRandomization)
setRandomizeAnswerOrder
public void setRandomizeAnswerOrder(boolean randomize)
getStartIndexesAtZero
public boolean getStartIndexesAtZero()
- Returns:
setStartIndexesAtZero
public void setStartIndexesAtZero(boolean b)
- Parameters:
b -
setCachedAnswerPair
protected void setCachedAnswerPair(java.util.Vector tuple)
- Randomize the orders of the items in a pair of vectors -- both vectors should be the same size. This randomizes the orders of the items in parallel -- i.e. if there's a mapping between one vector to another, it is preserved in the randomization, for example:
Before:
| Vector 1 |
Vector 2 |
| 1 |
a |
| 2 |
b |
| 3 |
c |
| 4 |
d |
After (for example):
| Vector 1 |
Vector 2 |
| 4 |
d |
| 2 |
b |
| 1 |
a |
| 3 |
c |
Returns a vector with two elements: vector1 randomized, and vector2 randomized.
getCachedAnswerPair
protected java.util.Vector getCachedAnswerPair()
getTupleFromChoices
public QuestionChoices.VectorPair getTupleFromChoices()
- This method is new -- getTupleOfChoicesAndIDs is old and almost obsolete. Use this instead if possible.
getQuestionChoicesWithIDField
public QuestionChoicesWithIDField getQuestionChoicesWithIDField()
isChoicesTableStandardFormat
public boolean isChoicesTableStandardFormat()
- Returns:
getChoicesQuestionID
public java.lang.Integer getChoicesQuestionID()
- Returns:
setChoicesQuestionID
public void setChoicesQuestionID(java.lang.Integer string)
- Parameters:
string -
getChoicesSQLWhere
public java.lang.String getChoicesSQLWhere()
- Returns:
getCacheRandomizeAnswerOrder
public boolean getCacheRandomizeAnswerOrder()
- Returns:
getRandomizeAnswerOrder
public boolean getRandomizeAnswerOrder()
- Returns:
setSaveTheTitle
public void setSaveTheTitle(boolean b)
- By default, the index number of the choice is saved in the table. For example:
[User's Selection] --> [value saved in database]
Male --> 1
Female --> 2
[No choice picked] --> 0
If saveTheTitle is set to true, the following is done instead:
[User's Selection] --> [value saved in database]
Male --> 'Male'
Female --> 'Female'
[No choice picked] --> '' (can be either an empty string or null)
or, for example, if the type is a number,
[User's Selection] --> [value saved in database]
60 --> 60
84 --> 84
96 --> 96
[No choice picked] --> 0
reinit
public void reinit()
