Examples of org.apache.commons.beanutils.BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate

• org.apache.commons.beanutils.BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate
  te the closure BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate predicate = new BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate( "activeEmployee", Boolean.FALSE ); // filter the Collection CollectionUtils.filter( peopleCollection, predicate );

  This would take a Collection of person objects and filter out any people whose activeEmployee property is false. Assuming...

  • The top level object in the peeopleCollection is an object which represents a person.
  • The person object has a getActiveEmployee() method which returns the boolean value for the object's activeEmployee property.

  Another typical usage might look like:

   // create the closure BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate predicate = new BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate( "personId", "456-12-1234" ); // search the Collection CollectionUtils.find( peopleCollection, predicate ); 

  This would search a Collection of person objects and return the first object whose personId property value equals 456-12-1234. Assuming...

  • The top level object in the peeopleCollection is an object which represents a person.
  • The person object has a getPersonId() method which returns the value for the object's personId property.
