org.apache.commons.functor.core.composite
Class ConditionalUnaryPredicate<A>

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.commons.functor.core.composite.ConditionalUnaryPredicate<A>
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Functor, UnaryFunctor<A>, UnaryPredicate<A>

public final class ConditionalUnaryPredicate<A>
extends Object
implements UnaryPredicate<A>, Serializable

A UnaryPredicate similiar to Java's "ternary" or "conditional" operator (? :). Given three predicate p, q, r, tests to p.test(x) ? q.test(x) : r.test(x).

Note that although this class implements Serializable, a given instance will only be truly Serializable if all the underlying functors are. Attempts to serialize an instance whose delegates are not all Serializable will result in an exception.

Constructor Detail

ConditionalUnaryPredicate

public ConditionalUnaryPredicate(UnaryPredicate<? super A> ifPred,
                                 UnaryPredicate<? super A> thenPred,
                                 UnaryPredicate<? super A> elsePred)
Create a new ConditionalUnaryPredicate.

Parameters:
ifPred - if
thenPred - then
elsePred - else
Method Detail

test

public boolean test(A obj)
Evaluate this predicate.

Specified by:
test in interface UnaryPredicate<A>
Parameters:
obj - the A object to test
Returns:
the result of this test

equals

public boolean equals(Object that)
Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this functor. This method must adhere to general Object.equals contract. Additionally, this method can return true only if the specified Object implements the same functor interface and is known to produce the same results and/or side-effects for the same arguments (if any).

While implementators are strongly encouraged to override the default Object implementation of this method, note that the default Object implementation does in fact adhere to the functor equals contract.

Specified by:
equals in interface Functor
Overrides:
equals in class Object
Parameters:
that - the object to compare this functor to
Returns:
true iff the given object implements this functor interface, and is known to produce the same results and/or side-effects for the same arguments (if any).

Functor.hashCode()

equals

public boolean equals(ConditionalUnaryPredicate<?> that)
Learn whether another ConditionalUnaryPredicate is equal to this.

Parameters:
that - ConditionalUnaryPredicate to test
Returns:
boolean

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Returns a hash code for this functor adhering to the general Object.hashCode contract. Implementators are strongly encouraged but not strictly required to override the default Object implementation of this method.

Specified by:
hashCode in interface Functor
Overrides:
hashCode in class Object
Returns:
a hash code for this functor
See Also:
Functor.equals(java.lang.Object)

toString

public String toString()
Returns a human readable description of this functor. Implementators are strongly encouraged but not strictly required to override the default Object implementation of this method.

Specified by:
toString in interface Functor
Overrides:
toString in class Object
Returns:
a human readable description of this functor
