Detailed Description

The config struct represents the stereochemistry in a well defined way. For cis/trans stereo bonds, the following data members define the spacial arrengement of the atoms.

Only begin and end are specific for OBCisTransStereo::Config. The other data members occur in all OBTetraPlanarStereo derived classes.

The config struct represents the stereochemistry in a well defined way. For squareplanar stereocenters, the following data members define the spacial arrengement of the atoms.

Member Function Documentation

bool operator== ( const Config other ) const

Equal to operator. Comparing OBCisTransStereo::Config structs is done using the information stored in the struct's data members (i.e. begin, end, refs and shape).

There are a number of cases resuling in false being returned:

  • begin and end don't match (is checked using the 2 combinations)
  • One of the Refs lists does not contain 4 elements.
  • 2 or more OBStereo::ImplicitRef values in a single Config struct
  • (The two refs don't share a single common element)

In the simplest case where both refs contain exactly the same elements (OBStereo::ContainsSameRefs()), coould include OBStereo::ImplicitRef), both Config struct are normalized to OBStereo::ShapeU starting with the same element. After this normalization, there are two possible orientations to overlay the shape on the double bond. From the illustration below, it can be seen only refs[2] has to be checked in order to conclude both Config structs have the same stereochemistry.

         1      4    1      4    1------4
          \    /     |      |           |
           C==C      |      |           |
          /    \     |      |           |
         2      3    2------3    2------3

                     1 2 3 4     1 2 3 4
                     |   |       |   |      <- in any case, refs[0] & refs[2] remain unchanged
                     1 2 3 4     1 4 3 2
        

When comparing a Config struct with explicit hydrogen(s) to one with implicit hydrogen(s), both refs are also normalized to OBStereo::ShapeU starting with the same common element. This shared element cannot be OBStereo::ImplicitRef. Depending on the position of the OBStereo::ImplicitRef element(s) in the refs, 3 cases are possible:


         refs[2] != OBStereo::ImplicitId:

           (analog to the case above where they contained the same elements )

           1 2 3 4
           |   |      <- refs[0] & refs[2] remain unchanged
           1 H 3 H

         else:

           1 2 3 4
           |     |    <- refs[0] & refs[3] remain unchanged
           1 H H 4

           1 2 3 4
           | |        <- refs[0] & refs[1] remain unchanged
           1 2 H H
        

In each case, the orientation of the U shape is also defined since there can be only one OBStereo::ImplicitRef for each side of the double bond.

Returns:
True if both Config structs represent the stereochemistry.
bool operator!= ( const Config other ) const [inline]

Not equal to operator. This is the inverse of the Equal to operator==.

Returns:
True if the two Config structs represent a different stereochemistry.
bool operator== ( const Config other ) const

Equal to operator. Comparing OBSquarePlanarStereo::Config structs is done using the information stored in the struct's data members (i.e. center, refs and shape).

There are a number of cases resuling in false being returned:

  • center atom ids don't match
  • One of the Refs lists does not contain 4 elements.
  • 2 or more OBStereo::ImplicitRef values in a single Config struct
  • (The two refs don't share a single common element)

In the simplest case where both refs contain exactly the same elements (OBStereo::ContainsSameRefs()), coould include OBStereo::ImplicitRef), both Config struct are normalized to OBStereo::ShapeU starting with the same element. After this normalization, there are two possible orientations to overlay the shape on the double bond.

           1 2 H H

Returns:
True if both Config structs represent the stereochemistry.
bool operator!= ( const Config other ) const [inline]

Not equal to operator. This is the inverse of the Equal to operator==.

Returns:
True if the two Config structs represent a different stereochemistry.
bool operator== ( const Config other ) const

Equal to operator. Comparing OBTetrahedralStereo::Config structs is done using the information stored in the struct's data members (i.e. view, winding, from/towards and refs).

There are a number of cases resuling in false being returned:

  • The centers don't match.
  • One of the Refs lists does not contain 3 elements.
  • 2 or more OBStereo::ImplicitRef values in a single Config struct

When either Config struct is unspecified (i.e. the stereochemistry implied is accidental), true is returned.

It doesn't matter if the two Config structs use the same view, same from/towards Ref or the same winding. All needed conversions will be carried out automatically (see OBTetraNonPlanerStereo::ToConfig). These conversions ensure the spacial orientation of the 4 groups remains unchanged.

Another key feature is the ability to comapre Config structs regardless of implicit (OBStereo::ImplicitRef) or explicit hydrogens. This is best illustrated with some examples. In these examples the same ref has already been selected as from/towards atom and both use the same winding and view direction. We will focus on how the three remaining refs are interpreted.

         234 == 234 // true
         2H4 == 234 // 3 is missing, must be the implicit --> 234 == 234 // true
         2H4 == 243 // same as above, but now 234 == 243 // false
         234 == H34 // 2 is missing, must be implicit --> 234 == 234 // true
       

By comparing the second and third example above, it can be clearly seen that the value of 1 Ref can actually be ignored. It's position in the sequence (or the winding) is defined by the two explicit Ref values.

Returns:
True if both Config structs represent the same stereochemistry.
bool operator!= ( const Config other ) const [inline]

Not equal to operator. This is the inverse of the Equal to operator==.

Returns:
True if the two Config structs represent a different stereochemistry.
