    public class ThreeWayDataMerge
    extends adams.flow.transformer.AbstractTransformer
    Merges the incoming 3-way data structures using the specified algorithm.

    Input/output:
    - accepts:
       adams.data.threeway.ThreeWayData[]
    - generates:
       adams.data.threeway.ThreeWayData


    -logging-level <OFF|SEVERE|WARNING|INFO|CONFIG|FINE|FINER|FINEST> (property: loggingLevel)
        The logging level for outputting errors and debugging output.
        default: WARNING
     
    -name <java.lang.String> (property: name)
        The name of the actor.
        default: ThreeWayDataMerge
     
    -annotation <adams.core.base.BaseAnnotation> (property: annotations)
        The annotations to attach to this actor.
        default:
     
    -skip <boolean> (property: skip)
        If set to true, transformation is skipped and the input token is just forwarded
        as it is.
        default: false
     
    -stop-flow-on-error <boolean> (property: stopFlowOnError)
        If set to true, the flow execution at this level gets stopped in case this
        actor encounters an error; the error gets propagated; useful for critical
        actors.
        default: false
     
    -silent <boolean> (property: silent)
        If enabled, then no errors are output in the console; Note: the enclosing
        actor handler must have this enabled as well.
        default: false
     
    -algorithm <adams.flow.transformer.threewaydatamerge.AbstractThreeWayDataMerge> (property: algorithm)
        The merge algorithm to use.
        default: adams.flow.transformer.threewaydatamerge.Join
     
    -merge-reports <boolean> (property: mergeReports)
        If enabled, the reports get merged into a single one and used for the outgoing
        data.
        default: false
