class:Predicate [NONE]

Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input to the predicate
Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface Predicate<T>
Represents a predicate (boolean-valued function) of one argument.

This is a functional interface whose functional method is test(Object).

method:and(java.util.function.Predicate) [NONE]

  • and

    default Predicate<T> and?(Predicate<? super T> other)
    Returns a composed predicate that represents a short-circuiting logical AND of this predicate and another. When evaluating the composed predicate, if this predicate is false, then the other predicate is not evaluated.

    Any exceptions thrown during evaluation of either predicate are relayed to the caller; if evaluation of this predicate throws an exception, the other predicate will not be evaluated.

    Parameters:
    other - a predicate that will be logically-ANDed with this predicate
    Returns:
    a composed predicate that represents the short-circuiting logical AND of this predicate and the other predicate
    Throws:
    NullPointerException - if other is null
  • method:negate() [NONE]

    negate

    default Predicate<T> negate()
    Returns a predicate that represents the logical negation of this predicate.
    Returns:
    a predicate that represents the logical negation of this predicate

    method:or(java.util.function.Predicate) [NONE]

    or

    default Predicate<T> or?(Predicate<? super T> other)
    Returns a composed predicate that represents a short-circuiting logical OR of this predicate and another. When evaluating the composed predicate, if this predicate is true, then the other predicate is not evaluated.

    Any exceptions thrown during evaluation of either predicate are relayed to the caller; if evaluation of this predicate throws an exception, the other predicate will not be evaluated.

    Parameters:
    other - a predicate that will be logically-ORed with this predicate
    Returns:
    a composed predicate that represents the short-circuiting logical OR of this predicate and the other predicate
    Throws:
    NullPointerException - if other is null

    method:isEqual(java.lang.Object) [NONE]

    isEqual

    static <T> Predicate<T> isEqual?(Object targetRef)
    Returns a predicate that tests if two arguments are equal according to Objects.equals(Object, Object) .
    Type Parameters:
    T - the type of arguments to the predicate
    Parameters:
    targetRef - the object reference with which to compare for equality, which may be null
    Returns:
    a predicate that tests if two arguments are equal according to Objects.equals(Object, Object)

    method:not(java.util.function.Predicate) [NONE]

    not

    static <T> Predicate<T> not?(Predicate<? super T> target)
    Returns a predicate that is the negation of the supplied predicate. This is accomplished by returning result of the calling target.negate().
    Type Parameters:
    T - the type of arguments to the specified predicate
    Parameters:
    target - predicate to negate
    Returns:
    a predicate that negates the results of the supplied predicate
    Throws:
    NullPointerException - if target is null
