public interface IBIConditionBasedFilter

extends IBIFilter

An expression in the Filter category, retains only those objects of the input set that match the search condition specified by this FilterObject. The basic structure of a search condition is the following:

(leftExpression) (relationalOperator) (rightExpression)

For example, ('Revenue') (greater than) ('1.000.000'). The two expressions in this Boolean term are provided by InputReferences.

Method Summary

IBIInputReference	getBetweenExpression() The InputReference that makes up the middle-part of the search condition in case of the operator type BETWEEN:.
IBIInputReference	getLeftExpression() The InputReference that makes up the left-hand side of the search condition.
IBIRelationalOperatorType	getRelationalOperator() A comparison operator that is used to define the Boolean expression for the search condition.
IBIInputReference	getRightExpression() The InputReference that makes up the right-hand side of the search condition.
void	setBetweenExpression(IBIInputReference newValue) The InputReference that makes up the middle-part of the search condition in case of the operator type BETWEEN:.
void	setLeftExpression(IBIInputReference newValue) The InputReference that makes up the left-hand side of the search condition.
void	setRelationalOperator(IBIRelationalOperatorType newValue) A comparison operator that is used to define the Boolean expression for the search condition.
void	setRightExpression(IBIInputReference newValue) The InputReference that makes up the right-hand side of the search condition.

Method Detail

getRelationalOperator

public IBIRelationalOperatorType getRelationalOperator()
                                                throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

A comparison operator that is used to define the Boolean expression for the search condition. This can be one of the following:

• EQUAL
• NOTEQUAL
• GREATERTHAN
• GREATERTHANEQUAL
• LESSTHAN
• LESSTHANEQUAL
• BETWEEN

setRelationalOperator

public void setRelationalOperator(IBIRelationalOperatorType newValue)
                           throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

A comparison operator that is used to define the Boolean expression for the search condition. This can be one of the following:

• EQUAL
• NOTEQUAL
• GREATERTHAN
• GREATERTHANEQUAL
• LESSTHAN
• LESSTHANEQUAL
• BETWEEN

getLeftExpression

public IBIInputReference getLeftExpression()
                                    throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

The InputReference that makes up the left-hand side of the search condition.

setLeftExpression

public void setLeftExpression(IBIInputReference newValue)
                       throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

The InputReference that makes up the left-hand side of the search condition.

getRightExpression

public IBIInputReference getRightExpression()
                                     throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

The InputReference that makes up the right-hand side of the search condition.

setRightExpression

public void setRightExpression(IBIInputReference newValue)
                        throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

The InputReference that makes up the right-hand side of the search condition.

getBetweenExpression

public IBIInputReference getBetweenExpression()
                                       throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

The InputReference that makes up the middle-part of the search condition in case of the operator type BETWEEN:.
leftExpression LESS THAN OR EQUAL betweenExpression LESS THAN OR EQUAL rightExpression
This can also be formulated as:
betweenExpression GREATER THAN OR EQUAL leftExpression AND betweenExpression LESS THAN OR EQUAL rightExpression

setBetweenExpression

public void setBetweenExpression(IBIInputReference newValue)
                          throws javax.jmi.reflect.JmiException

The InputReference that makes up the middle-part of the search condition in case of the operator type BETWEEN:.
leftExpression LESS THAN OR EQUAL betweenExpression LESS THAN OR EQUAL rightExpression
This can also be formulated as:
betweenExpression GREATER THAN OR EQUAL leftExpression AND betweenExpression LESS THAN OR EQUAL rightExpression
