Upgrades/Research Approach

[Chaosy]

I am currently developing a Castle Fight AI system on request, the AI is supposed to automatically build whatever happens to counter the enemy.
I have successfully done this part for buildings but I need to do the same for upgrades and research.

Is there a decent lib to make such an approach easier?
I imagine a function for getting all current upgrades of a player could be handy.
And a function to check if a player owns a building which can research a specific upgrade

The system is done in jass but if you got ideas/suggestions in GUI I will probably be able to convert them to jass.

I started on my own and my main issue right now is somehow figuring out if a specific building can research a specific upgrade.

isn't there a way to check it's avability ?

Not that I know of, I had to do an overkill workaround and it is not perfect.

why not save researches as parent key in hashtable with building(s) allowed to make given research? also you can try order given building to make research after increasing gld/lumber to huge amount, then if succeed order to cancel after 0sec timer and set resources back, but this won't take into account research' requirement, so writeing to hash is fine option in my opinion
