    * #### listOptions  
    public java.util.Enumeration listOptions()  
    Returns an enumeration describing the available options  
    Specified by:  
    `[listOptions](../../weka/core/OptionHandler.html#listOptions--)` in interface `[OptionHandler](../../weka/core/OptionHandler.html "interface in weka.core")`  
    Overrides:  
    `[listOptions](../../weka/classifiers/Classifier.html#listOptions--)` in class `[Classifier](../../weka/classifiers/Classifier.html "class in weka.classifiers")`  
    Returns:  
    an enumeration of all the available options  
    * #### setOptions  
    public void setOptions(java.lang.String[] options)  
                    throws java.lang.Exception  
    Parses a given list of options. Valid options are:  
     \-B classifierstring  
     Classifierstring should contain the full class name of a scheme included for selection followed by options to the classifier (required, option should be used once for each classifier).  
    Specified by:

    `[setOptions](../../weka/classifiers/Classifier.html#setOptions-java.lang.String:A-)` in class `[Classifier](../../weka/classifiers/Classifier.html "class in weka.classifiers")`  
    Parameters:  
    `options` \- the list of options as an array of strings  
    Throws:  
    `java.lang.Exception` \- if an option is not supported  
    * #### getOptions  
    public java.lang.String[] getOptions()  
    Gets the current settings of the Classifier.  
    Specified by:  
    `[getOptions](../../weka/core/OptionHandler.html#getOptions--)` in interface `[OptionHandler](../../weka/core/OptionHandler.html "interface in weka.core")`  
    Overrides:  
    `[getOptions](../../weka/classifiers/Classifier.html#getOptions--)` in class `[Classifier](../../weka/classifiers/Classifier.html "class in weka.classifiers")`
