Constructor Detail

BasicFieldValueConstraint

public BasicFieldValueConstraint(StepField field,
                                 Object value)

Constructor. Depending on the field type, the value must be of type String or Number.

Parameters:

field - The associated field.

value - The non-null property value.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - when an invalid argument is supplied.

Method Detail

setValue

public BasicFieldValueConstraint setValue(Object value)

Sets value property. Depending on the field type, the value must be of type String or Number.

Parameters:

value - The non-null property value.

Returns:

This BasicFieldValueConstraint instance.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - when an invalid argument is supplied.

getValue

public Object getValue()

Description copied from interface: FieldValueConstraint

Gets the value to compare with. Depending on the field type, the value is of type String or Number.

If the associated field type is of string type, when used in combination with the operator LIKE, this may contain the following wildcard characters as well:

• % for any string
• _ for a single character

Specified by:

getValue in interface FieldValueConstraint

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Description copied from interface: Constraint

Compares this constraint to the specified object. The result is true if and only if the argument is a non-null Constraint object representing the same constraint(s).

Specified by:

equals in interface Constraint

Overrides:

equals in class BasicFieldCompareConstraint

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Specified by:

hashCode in interface Constraint

Overrides:

hashCode in class BasicFieldCompareConstraint

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from interface: FieldValueConstraint

Returns a string representation of this FieldValueConstraint. The string representation has the form "FieldValueConstraint(inverse:<:inverse>, field:<field>, casesensitive:<casesensitive>, operator:<operator>, value:<value>)" where

• <inverse>is the value returned by isInverse()
• <field> is the field alias returned by FieldConstraint#getField().getAlias(), or FieldConstraint#getField().getFieldName() when the former is null.
• <casesensitive> is the value returned by isCaseSensitive()
• <operator> is the value returned by (@link FieldCompareConstraint#getOperator getOperator()}
• <value> is the value returned by getValue()

Specified by:

toString in interface FieldValueConstraint

Overrides:

toString in class BasicFieldCompareConstraint
