Class FullyBoundPredicate

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, Functor, NullaryFunctor, Predicate

    public final class FullyBoundPredicate
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements Predicate, java.io.Serializable
    Adapts a BinaryPredicate to the UnaryPredicate interface using a constant left-side argument.

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

      • FullyBoundPredicate

        public FullyBoundPredicate​(BinaryPredicate<? super L,​? super R> predicate,
                                   L left,
                                   R right)
        Create a new FullyBoundPredicate instance.
        Type Parameters:
        L - left type
        R - right type
        Parameters:
        predicate - the predicate to adapt
        left - the left argument to use
        right - the right argument to use
    • Method Detail

      • test

        public boolean test()
        Evaluate this predicate.
        Specified by:
        test in interface Predicate
        Returns:
        the result of this test
      • equals

        public boolean equals​(java.lang.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 java.lang.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).

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(FullyBoundPredicate that)
        Learn whether another FullyBoundPredicate is equal to this.
        Parameters:
        that - FullyBoundPredicate 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 java.lang.Object
        Returns:
        a hash code for this functor

        Functor.equals(java.lang.Object)
      • toString

        public java.lang.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 java.lang.Object
        Returns:

      • bind

        public static <L,​R> FullyBoundPredicate bind​(BinaryPredicate<? super L,​? super R> predicate,

        Adapt a BinaryPredicate to the Predicate interface.
        Type Parameters:
        L - left type
        R - right type
        Parameters:
        predicate - to adapt
        left - L argument to always send as the left operand to the wrapped function
