    public class WekaExperiment
extends adams.flow.transformer.AbstractTransformer
    Represents a Weka experiment, stored in a file. Can be setup from inside the flow.
    Via the input port, additional datasets can be inserted into the experiment. This allows one to define a template experiment and then just run it over various datasets without every having to change the experiment setup itself.

    Input/output:
    - accepts:
       adams.flow.core.Unknown
       java.io.File
       java.io.File[]
       java.lang.String
       java.lang.String[]
    - generates:
       weka.experiment.Experiment


    Valid options are: 

    -D <int> (property: debugLevel)
    The greater the number the more additional info the scheme may output to
    the console (0 = off).
    default: 0
    minimum: 0
 
    -name <java.lang.String> (property: name)
    The name of the actor.
    default: Experiment
 
    -annotation <adams.core.base.BaseText> (property: annotations)
    The annotations to attach to this actor.
    default:
 
    -skip (property: skip)
    If set to true, transformation is skipped and the input token is just forwarded
    as it is.
 
    -file <adams.data.ExperimentFile> (property: experimentFile)
    The file the experiment is stored in.
    default: .
 
    -no-check (property: noCheck)
    If set to true, the experiment file must not be present at setUp-time; necessary
    if file gets generated on-the-fly.
