Inputs

(For outputs, see below)

alternatives

A list of alternatives.

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternatives>. It must have the following form:

                    <alternatives>
    <alternative id="[...]">
        <active>[...]</active>
    </alternative>
    [...]
</alternatives>

preferenceRelation

Necessary assignment based preference relation between alternatives.

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternativesComparisons>. It must have the following form:

<alternativesComparisons>
        <pairs>
                <pair>
                        <initial><alternativeID>[...]</alternativeID></initial>
                        <terminal><alternativeID>[...]</alternativeID></terminal>
                </pair>
                [...]
        </pairs>
</alternativesComparisons>

parameters

Diagram drawing parameters.

The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <methodParameters>. It must have the following form:

<methodParameters>
    <parameter name="cluster">
        <value>
            <boolean>%1</boolean>
        </value>
    </parameter>
    <parameter name="transitiveReduction">
        <value>
            <boolean>%2</boolean>
        </value>
    </parameter>
    <parameter name="shape">
        <value>
            <label>%3</label>
        </value>
    </parameter>
    <parameter name="arrows">
        <value>
            <label>%4</label>
        </value>
    </parameter>
</methodParameters>

where:

%1 is a parameter named “cluster”. This is a boolean. The default value is true.
%2 is a parameter named “transitiveReduction”. This is a boolean. The default value is true.
%3 is a parameter named “shape”. It can have the following values:
- roundrect: Rounded rectangle.
- rect: Rectangle.
The default value is roundrect.
%4 is a parameter named “arrows”. It can have the following values:
- forward: Forward.
- backward: Backward.
- both: Both directions.
The default value is forward.

Outputs

hasseDiagram

Hasse diagram.

The returned value is a XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternativeValue>. It has the following form:

<alternativeValue mcdaConcept="hasseDiagram">
        <alternativesSet>
                <element>
                        <alternativeID>[...]</alternativeID>
                </element>
                [...]
        </alternativesSet>
        <value>
                <image>[PNG as BASE64]</image>
        </value>
</alternativeValue>

messages

Messages generated by the program.

The returned value is a XMCDA document whose main tag is <methodMessages>.
