public class IfNotAnyStep

extends IfStep

Evaluate properties specified by the associated Descriptors, and execute the nested Steps if and only if ALL of them evaluate to a negative result. To avoid non-deterministic evaluation stack behavior, all of the specified Descriptors are always evaluated exactly once.
