All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, PredicateDecorator<T>, Predicate<T>

public final class OnePredicate<T>
extends AbstractQuantifierPredicate<T>

Constructor Detail

OnePredicate

public OnePredicate(Predicate<? super T>... predicates)

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

Parameters:

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

Method Detail

onePredicate

public static <T> Predicate<T> onePredicate(Predicate<? super T>... predicates)

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.

Type Parameters:

T - the type that the predicate queries

Parameters:

predicates - the predicates to check, cloned, not null

Returns:

the any predicate

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the predicates array is null

NullPointerException - if any predicate in the array is null

onePredicate

public static <T> Predicate<T> onePredicate(Collection<? extends Predicate<? super T>> predicates)

Factory to create the predicate.

Type Parameters:

T - the type that the predicate queries

Parameters:

predicates - the predicates to check, cloned, not null

Returns:

the one predicate

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the predicates array is null

NullPointerException - if any predicate in the array is null

evaluate

public boolean evaluate(T object)

Evaluates the predicate returning true if only one decorated predicate returns true.

Parameters:

object - the input object

Returns:

true if only one decorated predicate returns true
