- Method Detail
  - create
```
ConstrFeature create(java.lang.String tag)
```
    Create a child feature.
    
    Parameters:
    
    tag - Feature tag.
    
    Returns:
    
    Created feature.
  - feature
```
ConstrFeatureList feature()
```
    Returns all constraint features.
    
    Returns:
    
    List of constraint features.
  - feature
```
ConstrFeature feature(java.lang.String tag)
```
    Returns a constraint feature.
    
    Parameters:
    
    tag - Constraint feature tag.
    
    Returns:
    
    Constraint feature.
  - global
```
int global()
```
    Returns the number of components in a global constraint, or -1 if the constraint is shape function-based.
    
    Returns:
    
    Number of components or -1.
  - global
```
Constr global(int nglobal)
```
    Sets the number of components of a global constraint. This also signals that the constraint is global rather than shape function-based.
    
    Parameters:
    
    nglobal - Number of components.
    
    Returns:
    
    Constraint entity.
  - shape
```
java.lang.String[] shape()
```
    Returns the tags of the shape functions associated with the constraint.
    
    Returns:
    
    Shape function tags.
  - shape
```
Constr shape(java.lang.String[] shtags)
```
    Points to the shape functions associated with the constraint.
    
    Parameters:
    
    shtags - Shape function tags.
    
    Returns:
    
    Constraint.
