- Method Detail
  - convert
```
List<TupleList> convert(List<Constraint> constraints,
                        int lastId)
```
    Converts all constraints to TupleLists by using the index based schema explained in ModelConverter. The constraints need to be converted in order.
    
    Parameters:
    
    constraints - all Constraints which need to be converted. Must not be null but can be empty
    
    lastId - last id that has been assigned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the converted constraints in the same order as the given constraints
  - convert
```
TupleList convert(Constraint constraint,
                  int lastId)
```
    Converts the constraint to a TupleList by using the index based schema explained in ModelConverter.
    
    Parameters:
    
    constraint - Constraint that needs to be converted. Must not be null.
    
    lastId - last id that has been assigned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the converted Constraint.
