public boolean matches(Object arg)

Implements org.hamcrest.Matcher.matches.

Doc from org.hamcrest.Matcher.matches.

Evaluates the matcher for argument item. This method matches against Object, instead of the generic type T. This is because the caller of the Matcher does not know at runtime what the type is (because of type erasure with Java generics). It is down to the implementations to check the correct type.

Parameters
arg:Object

the object against which the matcher is evaluated.

Returns:boolean

true if item matches, otherwise false.
