[DL-Learner discussion] How to create a new component

[Giuseppe C. <giu...@st...>]

To Whom It May Concern,
I would like to develop some new components and I have a couple of 
questions to ask (If I may).

 1. I have read the manual and it says that to create a concrete
    component I have to implement one of the following interfaces:
    KnowledgeSource, ReasonerComponent, LearningProblem,
    LearningAlgorithm, but It says also that the list is incomplete.
    Which are all the interfaces and/or abstract classes that I can
    implement for the creation of a new component?
 2. I have read the old code, contained in the "Build 2010-08-07"
    directory, and the new one. I saw that the management of
    configuration options of the components changed. Now, for example my
    component has an option called 'testOption' of String type, I
    created the setter and getter methods, but I want to set a set of
    allowed values. With the old version of DLLearner I could do it with
    StringConfigOption#setAllowedValues method, but how can I do it now
    with the new policy?

Greetings,
Giuseppe
