	)		const

protectedvirtual

Given a pointer to a Goal Selector instance, sets the appropriate fields from the provided XML node.

It is assumed that the value of the type attribute is this Goal Selector's type. (i.e. GoalSelectorFactory::thisFactory has already been called and returned true.) If sub-classes of GoalSelectorFactory introduce new GoalSelector parameters, then the sub-class should override this method but explicitly call the parent class's version.

Parameters

selector	A pointer to the goal selector whose attributes are to be set.
node	The XML node containing the goal attributes.
behaveFldr	The path to the behavior file. If the condition references resources in the file system, it should be defined relative to the behavior file location. This is the folder containing that path.

Returns: A boolean reporting success (true) or failure (false).
