AnyPredicateback to summary
public AnyPredicate(final Predicate<? super T>... predicates)

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

Parameters
predicates:Predicate<? super T>[]

the predicates to check, not cloned, not null

Method Detail

anyPredicateback to summary
public static <T> Predicate<T> anyPredicate(final 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.

Parameters
<T>
the type that the predicate queries
predicates:Predicate<? super T>[]

the predicates to check, cloned, not null

Returns:Predicate<T>

the any predicate

anyPredicateback to summary
public static <T> Predicate<T> anyPredicate(final Collection<? extends Predicate<? super T>> predicates)

Factory to create the predicate.

If the collection is size zero, the predicate always returns false. If the collection is size one, then that predicate is returned.

Parameters
<T>
the type that the predicate queries
predicates:Collection<? extends Predicate<? super T>>

the predicates to check, cloned, not null

Returns:Predicate<T>

the all predicate

Annotations
@SuppressWarnings:unchecked
Exceptions
NullPointerException:
  • if the predicates array is null
  • if any predicate in the array is null
evaluateback to summary
public boolean evaluate(final T object)

Implements org.apache.commons.collections4.Predicate.evaluate.

Evaluates the predicate returning true if any predicate returns true.

Parameters
object:T

the input object

Returns:boolean

true if any decorated predicate return true
