extends java.lang.Object
implements Predicate, PredicateDecorator, java.io.Serializable

Deprecated.

Commons Collections 3 is in maintenance mode. Commons Collections 4 should be used instead.

Predicate implementation that returns true if any of the predicates return true. If the array of predicates is empty, then this predicate returns false.

Constructor Detail

AnyPredicate

public AnyPredicate(Predicate[] predicates)

Deprecated.

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)

Deprecated.

Factory to create the predicate.

If the array is size zero, the predicate always returns false. If the array is size one, then that predicate is returned.

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)

Deprecated.

Factory to create the predicate.

If the collection is size zero, the predicate always returns false. If the collection is size one, then that predicate is returned.

Parameters:

predicates - the predicates to check, cloned, not null

Returns:

the all 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)

Deprecated.

Evaluates the predicate returning true if any predicate returns true.

Specified by:

evaluate in interface Predicate

Parameters:

object - the input object

Returns:

true if any decorated predicate return true

getPredicates

public Predicate[] getPredicates()

Deprecated.

Gets the predicates, do not modify the array.

Specified by:

getPredicates in interface PredicateDecorator

Returns:

the predicates
