Class CompoundConstraint

java.lang.Object

net.percederberg.mibble.type.CompoundConstraint

All Implemented Interfaces:

Constraint

public class CompoundConstraint
extends java.lang.Object
implements Constraint

A compound MIB type constraint. This class holds two constraints, either one that must be compatible for this constraint to return true. Effectively this class represents an OR composition of the two constraints.

Since:

2.0

Constructor Detail

CompoundConstraint

public CompoundConstraint(Constraint first,
                  Constraint second)

Creates a new compound constraint.

Parameters:

first - the first constraint

second - the second constraint

Method Detail

initialize

public void initialize(MibType type,
              MibLoaderLog log)
                throws MibException

Initializes the constraint. This will remove all levels of indirection present, such as references to types or values. No constraint information is lost by this operation. This method may modify this object as a side-effect, and will be called by the MIB loader.

Specified by:

initialize in interface Constraint

Parameters:

type - the type to constrain

log - the MIB loader log

Throws:

MibException - if an error was encountered during the initialization

isCompatible

public boolean isCompatible(MibType type)

Checks if the specified type is compatible with this constraint. The type is considered compatible if it is compatible with both constraints.

Specified by:

isCompatible in interface Constraint

Parameters:

type - the type to check

Returns:

true if the type is compatible, or false otherwise

isCompatible

public boolean isCompatible(MibValue value)

Checks if the specified value is compatible with this constraint set. The value is considered compatible if it is compatible with either of the two constraints.

Specified by:

isCompatible in interface Constraint

Parameters:

value - the value to check

Returns:

true if the value is compatible, or false otherwise

getConstraintList

public java.util.ArrayList<Constraint> getConstraintList()

Returns a list of the constraints in this compound. All compound constraints will be flattened out and their contents will be added to the list.

Returns:

a list of the base constraints in the compound

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of this object.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a string representation of this object
