GClasses::GLearnerLoader Class Reference

Detailed Description

This class is for loading various learning algorithms from a DOM. When any learning algorithm is saved, it calls baseDomNode, which creates (among other things) a field named "class" which specifies the class name of the algorithm. This class contains methods that will recognize any of the classes in this library and load them. If it doesn't recognize a class, it will either return NULL or throw and exception, depending on the flags you pass to the constructor. Obviously this loader won't recognize any classes that you make. Therefore, you should overload the corresponding method in this class with a new method that will first recognize and load your classes, and then call these methods to handle other types.
