Class FullyBoundPredicate

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.functor.adapter.FullyBoundPredicate

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Functor, NullaryFunctor, Predicate

public final class FullyBoundPredicate
extends Object
implements Predicate, 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.

predicate

private final BinaryPredicate<Object,Object> predicate

The BinaryPredicate I'm wrapping.

left

private final Object left

The left parameter to pass to predicate.

right

private final Object right

The right parameter to pass to predicate.

Constructor Details

FullyBoundPredicate

public <L,R> 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 Details

test

public boolean test()

Evaluate this predicate.

Specified by:

test in interface Predicate

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(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 Object

Returns:

a hash code for this functor

See Also:

• Functor.equals(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

bind

public static <L,R> FullyBoundPredicate bind(BinaryPredicate<? super L, ? super R> predicate,
 L left,
 R right)

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

right - R argument to always send as the right operand to the wrapped function

Returns:

FullyBoundPredicate
