The ReplacedBy class was introduced by the SBML Level 3 Hierarchical Model Composition package ('comp') to allow submodel elements to be 'canonical' versions of the element while still allowing the parent model to reference those elements. Whereas a ReplacedElement object indicates that the containing object replaces another, a ReplacedBy object indicates the converse: the parent object is to be replaced by another object.
As is the case with ReplacedElement, the ReplacedBy class inherits from SBaseRef. It additionally defines one required attribute ("submodelRef"), defined in libSBML in the Replacing class.

Appends the given annotation
to the "annotation" subelement of this object.
Whereas the SBase "notes" subelement is a container for content to be shown directly to humans, the "annotation" element is a container for optional software-generated content not meant to be shown to humans. Every object derived from SBase can have its own value for "annotation". The element's content type is XML type "any", allowing essentially arbitrary well-formed XML data content.
SBML places a few restrictions on the organization of the content of annotations; these are intended to help software tools read and write the data as well as help reduce conflicts between annotations added by different tools. Please see the SBML specifications for more details.
Unlike SBase::setAnnotation(const XMLNode* annotation) or SBase::setAnnotation(const std::string& annotation), this method allows other annotations to be preserved when an application adds its own data.

Appends the given notes
to the "notes" subelement of this object.
The content of notes
is copied.
The optional SBML element named "notes", present on every major SBML component type, is intended as a place for storing optional information intended to be seen by humans. An example use of the "notes" element would be to contain formatted user comments about the model element in which the "notes" element is enclosed. Every object derived directly or indirectly from type SBase can have a separate value for "notes", allowing users considerable freedom when adding comments to their models.
The format of "notes" elements must be XHTML 1.0. To help verify the formatting of "notes" content, libSBML provides the static utility method SyntaxChecker::hasExpectedXHTMLSyntax(); however, readers are urged to consult the appropriate SBML specification document for the Level and Version of their model for more in-depth explanations. The SBML Level 2 and 3 specifications have considerable detail about how "notes" element content must be structured.

Every object derived from SBase can have its own value for "annotation". The element's content type is XML type "any", allowing essentially arbitrary well-formed XML data content.
SBML places a few restrictions on the organization of the content of annotations; these are intended to help software tools read and write the data as well as help reduce conflicts between annotations added by different tools. Please see the SBML specifications for more details.
The annotations returned by this method will be in string form.

Returns the value of the "metaid" attribute of this object.
The optional attribute named "metaid", present on every major SBML component type, is for supporting metadata annotations using RDF (Resource Description Format). The attribute value has the data type XML ID, the XML identifier type, which means each "metaid" value must be globally unique within an SBML file. (Importantly, this uniqueness criterion applies across any attribute with type XML ID, not just the "metaid" attribute used by SBML—something to be aware of if your application-specific XML content inside the "annotation" subelement happens to use XML ID.) The "metaid" value serves to identify a model component for purposes such as referencing that component from metadata placed within "annotation" subelements.

Returns the content of the "notes" subelement of this object as a tree of XMLNode objects.
The optional SBML element named "notes", present on every major SBML component type, is intended as a place for storing optional information intended to be seen by humans. An example use of the "notes" element would be to contain formatted user comments about the model element in which the "notes" element is enclosed. Every object derived directly or indirectly from type SBase can have a separate value for "notes", allowing users considerable freedom when adding comments to their models.
The format of "notes" elements must be XHTML 1.0. To help verify the formatting of "notes" content, libSBML provides the static utility method SyntaxChecker::hasExpectedXHTMLSyntax(); however, readers are urged to consult the appropriate SBML specification document for the Level and Version of their model for more in-depth explanations. The SBML Level 2 and 3 specifications have considerable detail about how "notes" element content must be structured.
The "notes" element content returned by this method will be in XML form, but libSBML does not provide an object model specifically for the content of notes. Callers will need to traverse the XML tree structure using the facilities available on XMLNode and related objects. For an alternative method of accessing the notes, see getNotesString().

Returns the MIRIAM biological qualifier associated with the given resource.
In MIRIAM, qualifiers are an optional means of indicating the relationship between a model component and its annotations. There are two broad kinds of annotations: model and biological. The latter kind is used to qualify the relationship between a model component and a biological entity which it represents. Examples of relationships include "is" and "has part", but many others are possible. MIRIAM defines numerous relationship qualifiers to enable different software tools to qualify biological annotations in the same standardized way. In libSBML, the MIRIAM controlled-vocabulary annotations on an SBML model element are represented using lists of CVTerm objects, and the the MIRIAM biological qualifiers are represented using values
This method searches the controlled-vocabulary annotations (i.e., the list of CVTerm objects) on the present object, then out of those that have biological qualifiers, looks for an annotation to the given resource
. If such an annotation is found, it returns the type of biological qualifier associated with that resource as a value

Returns the SBMLDocument object containing this object instance.
LibSBML uses the class SBMLDocument as a top-level container for storing SBML content and data associated with it (such as warnings and error messages). An SBML model in libSBML is contained inside an SBMLDocument object. SBMLDocument corresponds roughly to the class SBML defined in the SBML Level 3 and Level 2 specifications, but it does not have a direct correspondence in SBML Level 1. (But, it is created by libSBML no matter whether the model is Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3.)
This method allows the caller to obtain the SBMLDocument for the current object.

Returns the integer portion of the value of the "sboTerm" attribute of this object.
Beginning with SBML Level 2 Version 3, objects derived from SBase have an optional attribute named "sboTerm" for supporting the use of the Systems Biology Ontology. In SBML proper, the data type of the attribute is a string of the form "SBO:NNNNNNN", where "NNNNNNN" is a seven digit integer number; libSBML simplifies the representation by only storing the "NNNNNNN" integer portion. Thus, in libSBML, the "sboTerm" attribute on SBase has data type int
, and SBO identifiers are stored simply as integers. (For convenience, libSBML offers methods for returning both the integer form and a text-string form of the SBO identifier.)
SBO terms are a type of optional annotation, and each different class of SBML object derived from SBase imposes its own requirements about the values permitted for "sboTerm". Please consult the SBML Level 2 Version 4 specification for more information about the use of SBO and the "sboTerm" attribute.

The content of notes
is copied, and any existing content of this object's "notes" subelement is deleted.
The optional SBML element named "notes", present on every major SBML component type, is intended as a place for storing optional information intended to be seen by humans. An example use of the "notes" element would be to contain formatted user comments about the model element in which the "notes" element is enclosed. Every object derived directly or indirectly from type SBase can have a separate value for "notes", allowing users considerable freedom when adding comments to their models.
The format of "notes" elements must be XHTML 1.0. To help verify the formatting of "notes" content, libSBML provides the static utility method SyntaxChecker::hasExpectedXHTMLSyntax(); however, readers are urged to consult the appropriate SBML specification document for the Level and Version of their model for more in-depth explanations. The SBML Level 2 and 3 specifications have considerable detail about how "notes" element content must be structured.

The following code illustrates a very simple way of setting the notes using this method. Here, the object being annotated is the whole SBML document, but that is for illustration purposes only; you could of course use this same approach to annotate any other SBML component.
notes | an XML string that is to be used as the content of the "notes" subelement of this object |
addXHTMLMarkup | a boolean indicating whether to wrap the contents of the notes argument with XHTML paragraph (<p> ) tags. This is appropriate when the string in notes does not already containg the appropriate XHTML markup. |

Sets the value of the "portRef" attribute of this SBaseRef.
Fails if the id is not a valid syntax for a PidRef (LIBSBML_INVALID_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE ), or if the SBaseRef already points to an element of the submodel using a different interface (LIBSBML_OPERATION_FAILED ). An sBaseRef must use exactly one method to point to a submodel element.

Sets the sBaseRef definition of this SBaseRef to a copy of the given SBaseRef object instance.
This method fails if the added sBaseRef does not match the level/version/package of the parent object, if the added sBaseRef cannot be copied, or if the SBaseRef already points to an element of the submodel using a different interface. A sBaseRef must use exactly one method to point to a submodel element: portRef, idRef, unitRef, deletion, or by using a sBaseRef child object.

Sets the value of the "sboTerm" attribute.
Beginning with SBML Level 2 Version 3, objects derived from SBase have an optional attribute named "sboTerm" for supporting the use of the Systems Biology Ontology. In SBML proper, the data type of the attribute is a string of the form "SBO:NNNNNNN", where "NNNNNNN" is a seven digit integer number; libSBML simplifies the representation by only storing the "NNNNNNN" integer portion. Thus, in libSBML, the "sboTerm" attribute on SBase has data type int
, and SBO identifiers are stored simply as integers.
SBO terms are a type of optional annotation, and each different class of SBML object derived from SBase imposes its own requirements about the values permitted for "sboTerm". Please consult the SBML Level 2 Version 4 specification for more information about the use of SBO and the "sboTerm" attribute.

Sets the value of the "sboTerm" attribute by string.
Beginning with SBML Level 2 Version 3, objects derived from SBase have an optional attribute named "sboTerm" for supporting the use of the Systems Biology Ontology. In SBML proper, the data type of the attribute is a string of the form "SBO:NNNNNNN", where "NNNNNNN" is a seven digit integer number; libSBML simplifies the representation by only storing the "NNNNNNN" integer portion. Thus, in libSBML, the "sboTerm" attribute on SBase has data type int

Unsets the value of the "annotation" subelement of this SBML object.
Whereas the SBase "notes" subelement is a container for content to be shown directly to humans, the "annotation" element is a container for optional software-generated content not meant to be shown to humans. Every object derived from SBase can have its own value for "annotation". The element's content type is XML type "any", allowing essentially arbitrary well-formed XML data content.
SBML places a few restrictions on the organization of the content of annotations; these are intended to help software tools read and write the data as well as help reduce conflicts between annotations added by different tools. Please see the SBML specifications for more details.

Unsets the value of the "id" attribute of this SBML object.
Most (but not all) objects in SBML include two common attributes: "id" and "name". The identifier given by an object's "id" attribute value is used to identify the object within the SBML model definition. Other objects can refer to the component using this identifier. The data type of "id" is always either Sid
or UnitSId
, depending on the object in question. Both data types are defined as follows:
letter ::= 'a'..'z','A'..'Z' digit ::= '0'..'9' idChar ::= letter | digit | '_' SId ::= ( letter | '_' ) idChar*
The equality of SId
and UnitSId
type values in SBML is determined by an exact character sequence match; i.e., comparisons of these identifiers must be performed in a case-sensitive manner. This applies to all uses of SId
and UnitSId
.

Unsets the value of the "metaid" attribute of this SBML object.
The optional attribute named "metaid", present on every major SBML component type, is for supporting metadata annotations using RDF (Resource Description Format). The attribute value has the data type XML ID, the XML identifier type, which means each "metaid" value must be globally unique within an SBML file. (Importantly, this uniqueness criterion applies across any attribute with type XML ID, not just the "metaid" attribute used by SBML—something to be aware of if your application-specific XML content inside the "annotation" subelement happens to use XML ID.) The "metaid" value serves to identify a model component for purposes such as referencing that component from metadata placed within "annotation" subelements.

Unsets the value of the "name" attribute of this SBML object.
Most (but not all) objects in SBML include two common attributes: "id" and "name". In contrast to the "id" attribute, the "name" attribute is optional and is not intended to be used for cross-referencing purposes within a model. Its purpose instead is to provide a human-readable label for the component. The data type of "name" is the type string
defined in XML Schema. SBML imposes no restrictions as to the content of "name" attributes beyond those restrictions defined by the string
type in XML Schema.
The recommended practice for handling "name" is as follows. If a software tool has the capability for displaying the content of "name" attributes, it should display this content to the user as a component's label instead of the component's "id". If the user interface does not have this capability (e.g., because it cannot display or use special characters in symbol names), or if the "name" attribute is missing on a given component, then the user interface should display the value of the "id" attribute instead. (Script language interpreters are especially likely to display "id" instead of "name".)
As a consequence of the above, authors of systems that automatically generate the values of "id" attributes should be aware some systems may display the "id"'s to the user. Authors therefore may wish to take some care to have their software create "id" values that are: (a) reasonably easy for humans to type and read; and (b) likely to be meaningful, for example by making the "id" attribute be an abbreviated form of the name attribute value.
An additional point worth mentioning is although there are restrictions on the uniqueness of "id" values, there are no restrictions on the uniqueness of "name" values in a model. This allows software applications leeway in assigning component identifiers.
