ListOfFbcAssociations (LibSBML Java API)

```
public class ListOfFbcAssociations
extends ListOf
```
fbc A list of FbcAssociation objects.
The ListOfFbcAssociations is a container of FbcAssociation objects for the FbcAnd and FbcOr classes. Unlike the ListOf___ classes in SBML, the ListOfFbcAssociations is not a class that appears in the &ldquofbc&rdquo specification, and instead is used in libsbml as a convenience class to store arbitrary numbers of FbcAssociation objects. Also unlike other ListOf___ classes, the FbcAnd and FbcOr classes require at least two child FbcAssociation objects, so valid ListOfFbcAssociations libsbml objects will always contain two or more children.
In addition, these children will have element names associated with their derived class, not the base FbcAssociation class: &ldquofbc:and&rdquo, &ldquofbc:or&rdquo, and &ldquofbc:geneProductRef&rdquo.

See Also:

FbcAssociation, FbcAnd, FbcOr, GeneProductRef

"Note:"

This class of objects was introduced in Version 2 of the SBML Level 3 Flux Balance Constraints (&ldquofbc&rdquo) specification. In Version 1 of &ldquofbc&rdquo, the information encoded by this class can be stored instead using the Association and GeneAssociation annotation classes. Please see the Version 1 and Version 2 &ldquofbc&rdquo specifications for more details.

- Method Detail
  - delete
```
public void delete()
```
    Explicitly deletes the underlying native object.
    In general, application software will not need to call this method directly. The Java language binding for libSBML is implemented as a language wrapper that provides a Java interface to libSBML's underlying C++/C code. Some of the Java methods return objects that are linked to objects created not by Java code, but by C++ code. The Java objects wrapped around them will be deleted when the garbage collector invokes the corresponding C++ finalize() methods for the objects. The finalize() methods in turn call the ListOfFbcAssociations.delete() method on the libSBML object.
    This method is exposed in case calling programs want to ensure that the underlying object is freed immediately, and not at some arbitrary time determined by the Java garbage collector. In normal usage, callers do not need to invoke ListOfFbcAssociations.delete() themselves.
    
    Overrides:
    
    delete in class ListOf

    Removes the FbcAssociation with the given identifier
    This method searches for and removes the FbcAssociation object with the given identifier sid, and returns a pointer to it. The caller owns the returned item and is responsible for deleting it. If none of the items in this list have the identifier sid, then null is returned.
    
    Parameters:

  - getTypeCode
```
public int getTypeCode()
```
    Returns the libSBML type code for this SBML object.
    
    LibSBML attaches an identifying code to every kind of SBML object. These are integer constants known as SBML type codes. The names of all the codes begin with the characters SBML_. In the Java language interface for libSBML, the type codes are defined as static integer constants in the interface class libsbmlConstants. Note that different Level 3 package plug-ins may use overlapping type codes to identify the package to which a given object belongs, call the getPackageName() method on the object.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getTypeCode in class ListOf
    
    Returns:
    
    the SBML type code for this object: SBML_LIST_OF (default).
    
    See Also:
    
    ListOfFbcAssociations.getElementName(), SBase.getPackageName()
    
    "Warning:"
    
    The specific integer values of the possible type codes may be reused by different Level 3 package plug-ins. Thus, to identifiy the correct code, it is necessary to invoke both getTypeCode() and getPackageName().
  - getItemTypeCode
```
public int getItemTypeCode()
```
    Returns the libSBML type code for the objects contained in this ListOf.
    
    LibSBML attaches an identifying code to every kind of SBML object. These are integer constants known as SBML type codes. The names of all the codes begin with the characters SBML_. In the Java language interface for libSBML, the type codes are defined as static integer constants in the interface class libsbmlConstants. Note that different Level 3 package plug-ins may use overlapping type codes to identify the package to which a given object belongs, call the getPackageName() method on the object.
