BiPredicate<T, U>
and
(BiPredicate<? super T, ? super U> 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
public
BiPredicate<T, U>
negate
()
Returns a predicate that represents the logical negation of this
predicate.
Returns
- a predicate that represents the logical negation of this
predicate
public
BiPredicate<T, U>
or
(BiPredicate<? super T, ? super U> 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
public
abstract
boolean
test
(T t, U u)
Evaluates this predicate on the given arguments.
Parameters
| t |
the first input argument |
| u |
the second input argument |
Returns
true if the input arguments match the predicate,
otherwise false
