### UnresolvedListElementWithLength

    public UnresolvedListElementWithLength(Position position,
                                           MinOptMax length,
                                           RelSide side,
                                           boolean conditional,
                                           boolean isFirst,
                                           boolean isLast)

  Main constructor

  Parameters:
    `position` - the Position instance needed by the addAreas stage of the LMs.
    `length` - the length of the element
    `side` - the side to which this element applies
    `conditional` - true if it's a conditional element (conditionality=discard)
    `isFirst` - true if this is a space-before of the first area generated.
    `isLast` - true if this is a space-after of the last area generated.

Method Detail

### isConditional

    public boolean isConditional()

  Specified by:
    `isConditional` in class `UnresolvedListElement`
  Returns:
    true if the element is conditional (conditionality="discard")

### getLength

    public MinOptMax getLength()

  Returns:
    the space as resolved MinOptMax instance

### getSide

    public RelSide getSide()

  Returns:
    the side this element was generated for

### isFirst

    public boolean isFirst()

  Returns:
    true if this is a space-before of the first area generated.

### isLast

    public boolean isLast()

  Returns:
    true if this is a space-after of the last area generated.

### notifyLayoutManager

    public abstract void notifyLayoutManager(MinOptMax effectiveLength)

  Called to notify the affected layout manager about the effective length after resolution. This method is called once before each call to the layout manager's addAreas() method.

  Parameters:
    `effectiveLength` - the effective length after resolution (may be null which equals to zero effective length)

### toString

    public java.lang.String toString()

  Overrides:
    `toString` in class `java.lang.Object`
