Method Detail

parse

public static void parse(java.io.File file,
                         ModifiableResources resources)

Parses the parameters from a specified CGP parameter file and modifies the experiment resources appropriately.

CGP .par files do not follow a very strict convention, so this parser does its best to cope with format irregularities. Parsing works even if the parameters are in the wrong order, and unknown parameters are simply ignored.

Parameters:

file - the .par file to parse.

resources - a reference to the resources object that must be modified.
