isExactStereoMatching

public boolean isExactStereoMatching()

Returns the exact stereo matching option. If true, equality is needed in stereochemistry. ("All stereo info is exactly the same.") It mainly has an effect when the query has no stereo information: it only matches non-stereo target. Similarly, a query with a wiggly tetrahedral center will only match wiggly tetrahedral center, and not specific R and S configurations. If false, non-stereo query matches both nonstereo and stereo target.

By default, this setting is false for all search types except for DUPLICATE search, where it is true. This setting has no effect if stereoSearch == false.

Returns:

setExactStereoMatching

public void setExactStereoMatching(boolean value)

If true, equality is needed in stereochemistry. ("All stereo info is exactly the same.") It mainly has an effect when the query has no stereo information: it only matches non-stereo target. Similarly, a query with a wiggly tetrahedral center will only match wiggly tetrahedral center, and not specific R and S configurations. If false, non-stereo query matches both nonstereo and stereo target.

By default, this setting is false for all search types except for DUPLICATE search, where it is true. This setting has no effect if stereoSearch == false.

Parameters:

value - the exact-stereo setting

See Also:

setStereoSearch(boolean)

isExactBondMatching

Indicates whether bond types should match exacly - looking for query bonds target.

Returns:

true if bond types must match exactly. Default value is false

setExactBondMatching

public void setExactBondMatching(boolean value)

Specifies whether bond types should match exacly - looking for query bonds target.

Parameters:

value - if set to true, bond types must match exactly. For example "single or double" matches only "single or double", but matches neither "single" or "double". Default value is false

Acceptable values: SearchConstants.NO_SCREEN, SearchConstants.NO_ABAS, SearchConstants.SUBSTRUCTURE (default), SearchConstants.SUPERSTRUCTURE (no query features allowed), SearchConstants.SIMILARITY, and SearchConstants.FULL. SearchConstants.DUPLICATE. SearchConstants.FULL_FRAGMENT.

WARNING: This method may affect other search settings, therefore if other search options are adjusted, this method should be called first! For affected search options, see links below.

isMatching

public abstract boolean isMatching()
                            throws chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

Checks if the query structure matches a substructure in the molecule.

Returns:

true if the query was found.

Throws:

chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

findFirst

public abstract int[] findFirst()
                         throws chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

Looks for the first matching pattern in the target molecule. If the search object was previously used, this method re-initializes the search process, and starts returning the hits from the beginning.

Returns:

an array containing the atom indexes of the target atoms that match the query atoms (in the order of the appropriate query atoms) or null if there are no hits.

Special atom indexes: see description in findNext().

Throws:

chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

See Also:

findNext(), findAll(), isMatching(), getMatchingQuery()

findNext

public abstract int[] findNext()
                        throws chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

Looks for the next matching pattern in the target molecule. If the search object was not used previously, it also initializes the search. (So findFirst() call is not necessary prior to a findNext() call.)

Returns:

an array containing the atom indexes of the target atoms that match the query atoms (in the order of the appropriate query atoms) or null if there are no more hits.

Special atom indexes:

• In case of explicit query H atoms matching to implied H atoms in the target, a negative number is returned. The absolute value of this number equals with the atom index of the heavy atom bearing the implicit hydrogen, or Integer.MIN_VALUE in case of 0 heavy atom index.
• The same method is used for explicit LP (lone pair) atoms in the query. The hit contains the negated number of the target heavy atom with the matching lone pair, or Integer.MIN_VALUE for 0 index. SearchConstants.HIT_LP is set for isolated lone pairs (in which case there is no such target heavy atom).
• Multicenter atoms (e.g. of multicenter coordinate bonds) are not returned, the match array always contains SearchConstants.HIT_MULTICENTER for these atoms.
• For R-group queries, R-atom matches are not returned, the match array conatins SearchConstants.HIT_R for these atoms. If the "hitIncludesRNodes" parameter is NOT set then only the scaffold atoms are included in the match array. See MolSearchOptions.setHitIncludesRNodes(boolean).
• Undefined R-atom handling depends on parameter "undefinedRAtom", see SearchOptions.setUndefinedRAtom(int). In case of undefined R-atom matching a group of atoms (see SearchOptions.isUndefinedRAtomMatchingGroup()), only one matching atom is set in the match array, or SearchConstants.HIT_R_EMPTY_MATCH denoting the empty group.
• Unmapable atoms (e.g. polymer star atoms) are denoted by SearchConstants.HIT_UNMAPABLE in the match array.
• Excluded atoms (see setTarget(chemaxon.struc.Molecule,int[])) will not appear in the match array at all (their appropriate indexes are left out).
• When the query contains link nodes, the returned array may contain more indices than the query atoms. In this case the extra atom indices appear at the end and method getMatchingQuery() can be used to get the most specific matching form of the query.
• All Superatom S-groups are treated as expanded during the search, so atom indices are returned accordingly.

Throws:

chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

See Also:

findFirst(), findAll(), isMatching(), getMatchingQuery()

findAll

public abstract int[][] findAll()
                         throws chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

Looks for all matching patterns in the molecule.

Returns:

an array containing the matches as arrays or null if there are no hits. The match arrays contain the atom indexes of the target atoms that match the query atoms (in the order of the appropriate query atoms).

Special atom indexes: see description in findNext().

Throws:

chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

See Also:

isMatching(), findFirst(), findNext()

getGroupHit

public int[][] getGroupHit(int[] hit)

Returns the 2D, group hit array. For every query atom there might be several target atom indices. Used for query side homology, undefined R atoms and query atoms that have hit in Rgroup definitions.

addMatch

public void addMatch(int queryAtom,
                     int targetAtom)

Specifies an extra prerequisite of the structure search that queryAtom must match to targetAtom only. If this is impossible, the search methods will report no matching. The use of this method makes the search more effective than checking the hits afterwards.

Several addMatch() calls represent conditions connected by boolean operator AND.

The effect of all addMatch() calls can be canceled by clearMatch().

addMatch

public void addMatch(int[] queryAtoms,
                     int[] targetAtoms,

isMatchCountInRelation

public boolean isMatchCountInRelation(java.lang.String relation,
                                      int hitLimit)
                               throws chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

Decides questions like "does the query match the target at least 3 times", "[] up to 5 times", "[] exactly once". Makes this efficiently, which means it only searches for the number of hits necessary to decide the question.

Example:

isMatchCountInRelation("<", 2) - true if the query can be found in the target less than two times.

Parameters:

relation - The relational operation of the question. This operation will be used to compare the number of hits to hitLimit. Available values:

"=" - tests equality to hitLimit.

"<" - returns true if the number of found hits is less than hitLimit.

"<=" - less than or equality

">" - greater than

">=" - greater than or equality

hitLimit - The limit for the number of hits.

Returns:

"actual number of hits (of query in target)" <relation> hitLimit

Throws:

chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException - if encountered during the search.

getMatchCount()

isMatchCountBetween

public boolean isMatchCountBetween(int hitLimitLow,
                                   boolean isLowerLimitIncluded,
                                   int hitLimitHigh,
                                   boolean isHigherLimitIncluded)
                            throws chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

Decides questions like "does the query match the target between 2 and 5 times (inclusively)" Makes this efficiently, which means it only searches for the number of hits necessary to decide the question.

Example:

isMatchCountBetween(2, true, 4, true) - true if the query can be found in the target exactly 2, 3 or 4 times.

isMatchCountBetween(2, false, 4, false) - true if the query can be found in the target exactly 3 times.

Parameters:

hitLimitLow - The lower limit for the number of hits.

isLowerLimitIncluded - If true, equality is allowed with hitLimitLow.

hitLimitHigh - The upper limit for the number of hits. If you pass Integer.MAX_VALUE, it will be treated as infinity. (I.e. only the lower limit is applied.)

isHigherLimitIncluded - If true, equality is allowed with hitLimitHigh.

Returns:

Whether the "actual number of hits (of query in target)" is between hitLimitLow and hitLimitHigh, inclusively.

Throws:

chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException - if encountered during the search.

getMatchCount()

getMatchCount

public int getMatchCount()
                  throws chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException

The number of times the query molecule appears in the target molecule.

If you would like to decide a simple relation regarding this number, you should consider method isMatchCountInRelation( String, int), because it is more efficient than this method.

Returns:

the above occurrence number.

Throws:

chemaxon.sss.search.SearchException - If encountered during the search.
