Constructor Detail

NonePredicate

public NonePredicate(Predicate[] predicates)

Constructor that performs no validation. Use getInstance if you want that.

Parameters:

predicates - the predicates to check, not cloned, not null

Method Detail

getInstance

public static Predicate getInstance(Predicate[] predicates)

Factory to create the predicate.

If the array is size zero, the predicate always returns true.

Parameters:

predicates - the predicates to check, cloned, not null

Returns:

the any predicate

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the predicates array is null

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if any predicate in the array is null

getInstance

public static Predicate getInstance(java.util.Collection predicates)

Factory to create the predicate.

If the collection is size zero, the predicate always returns true.

Parameters:

predicates - the predicates to check, cloned, not null

Returns:

the one predicate

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the predicates array is null

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if any predicate in the array is null

evaluate

public boolean evaluate(java.lang.Object object)

Evaluates the predicate returning false if any stored predicate returns false.

Specified by:

evaluate in interface Predicate

Parameters:

object - the input object

Returns:

true if none of decorated predicates return true

getPredicates

public Predicate[] getPredicates()

Gets the predicates, do not modify the array.

Specified by:

getPredicates in interface PredicateDecorator

Returns:

the predicates
