Class CollectionExpressionVariable

java.lang.Object
com.broadleafcommerce.rulesengine.expression.util.CollectionExpressionVariable
All Implemented Interfaces:
ExpressionVariable
public class CollectionExpressionVariable extends Object implements ExpressionVariable
Deprecated.
Use CollectionsExpressionVariable. Note that the inputs have been reversed for methods with more than one.

Common, null-safe, collection operations

An instance of this class will usually be accessible as a variable within an expression via #collections. This is partly a wrapper around CollectionUtils to provide a layer of abstraction and because CollectionUtils employs static methods. Note that not all methods of CollectionUtils have been implemented just those that seemed most relevant for expression evaluation.

    • getName

      public String getName()
      Deprecated.
      Specified by:
      getName in interface ExpressionVariable
      Returns:
      Name of the variable, must not be null

    • isEmpty

      public boolean isEmpty(@Nullable Collection<?> collection)
      Deprecated.
      Whether the collection is empty or null.

    • equals

      public boolean equals(@Nullable Collection<?> coll1, @Nullable Collection<?> coll2)
      Deprecated.
      Performs a deep equals on the 2 collections.

    • contains

      public <T> boolean contains(@Nullable Collection<T> collection, @Nullable T value)
      Deprecated.

      Whether the value is found within the collection using Collection.contains(Object). This method is dynamic and will work slightly differently when given an array or a collection to validate against. In that scenario, the contents of value are traversed to see if all of the elements are contained within collection. If value is null, then the collection must contain a null value

      Parameters:
      collection - collection to check
      value - what to check for, which can also be an array or collection
      Returns:
      whether or not everything defined by value is contained within collection

    • notContains

      public <T> boolean notContains(@Nullable Collection<T> collection, @Nullable T value)
      Deprecated.
      Whether the value is not contained by the collection.

    • notContains

      public <T> boolean notContains(@Nullable Collection<T> collection, @Nullable Collection<T> value)
      Deprecated.
      Whether the collection defined by value is not contained by the collection.

    • notContains

      public <T> boolean notContains(@Nullable Collection<T> collection, @Nullable T[] value)
      Deprecated.
      Whether the array defined by value is not contained by the collection.

    • containsAny

      public boolean containsAny(@Nullable Collection<?> coll1, @Nullable Collection<?> coll2)
      Deprecated.
      Whether the first collection contains any elements from the second. If either is null, returns false.

    • containsAll

      public boolean containsAll(@Nullable Collection<?> coll1, @Nullable Collection<?> coll2)
      Deprecated.
      Whether the first collection contains all of the elements from the second. If both are empty or null, returns true

    • containsNone

      public boolean containsNone(@Nullable Collection<?> coll1, @Nullable Collection<?> coll2)
      Deprecated.
      Whether the first collections contains none of the elements form the second. If either is null, returns true.
