public class FbcAnd
extends FbcAssociation
```
fbc An &ldquoand&rdquo relationship for gene products
FbcAnd class is used in Version 2 of the SBML Level 3 Flux Balance Constraints (&ldquofbc&rdquo) package to represent an 'and' relationship between two or more child FbcAssociation objects. In other words, it indicates that all of the child objects are included. Note that since the FbcAssociation class is the parent class of GeneProducRef, FbcAnd and FbcOr, a given FbcAnd can potentially include nested 'and'/'or' combinations of gene products.

"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 FbcAnd.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 FbcAnd.delete() themselves.

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 FbcAssociation

    the SBML type code for this object: SBML_FBC_AND (default).
    
    See Also:
    
    FbcAnd.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().
