Structure Class COMPARTMENT
Package:
CL-SBML
Class Precedence List:
COMPARTMENT, SBML-ELEMENT, SBML-BASE, STRUCTURE-CLASS, T.
Slots:
- SPATIAL-DIMENSIONS: default value 3, type (MEMBER 0 1 2 3), initarg :SPATIAL-DIMENSIONS
- SIZE: default value 0.0d0, type DOUBLE-FLOAT, initarg :SIZE
- UNITS: default value NIL, type (OR SYMBOL STRING CONS), initarg :UNITS
- OUTSIDE: default value NIL, type (OR NULL STRING), initarg :SIZE
- CONSTANT-P: default value NIL, type BOOLEAN, initarg :CONSTANT-P
Description:
The representation of compartments in SBML.
The accessors COMPARTMENT-SPATIAL-DIMENSIONS, COMPARTMENT-SIZE, COMPARTMENT-UNITS, COMPARTMENT-OUTSIDE, and COMPARTMENT-CONSTANT-P are used to extract and set the structure fields.
Affected By:
None.
Exceptional Situations:
None.

SBML-ELEMENT, COMPARTMENT-P, COMPARTMENT-SPATIAL-DIMENSIONS, COMPARTMENT-SIZE, COMPARTMENT-UNITS, COMPARTMENT-OUTSIDE, COMPARTMENT-CONSTANT-P, and MAKE-COMPARTMENT.
Notes:
Lists
SBML must resort to "container elements"
like listOfCompartments, listOfParameters
etc. etc. These are directly represented as LISTs
in CL.
If the need arises, these lists could be replaced with VECTORs.
Types
SBML states that the values of the fields UNITS
and OUTSIDE should be of type SID (SId.) The
definition here is more liberal, as the type specifier SID is
defined in terms of SATISFIES, which is a notorious complication in
the CL type system. If the need arises, the type
specification of the slots can be made stricter.
