getEndIndex

Integer getEndIndex()

Get the value of endIndex

Returns:

the value of endIndex

setEndIndex

void setEndIndex(Integer endIndex)

Set the value of endIndex

Parameters:

endIndex - new value of endIndex

getReferenceId

String getReferenceId()

Get the value of referenceId

Returns:

the value of referenceId

setReferenceId

void setReferenceId(String referenceId)

Set the value of referenceId

Parameters:

referenceId -

setReference

void setReference(Object entity)
                  throws IllegalArgumentException

Set the value of referenceId from entity

Parameters:

entity -

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException

hasReference

boolean hasReference()

Used to check if the filter contains a reference.

Returns:

true if the filter contains a reference

checkReference

void checkReference(Class<?> reference,
                    boolean mandatory)
                    throws IllegalArgumentException

Use to check if reference class is supported by the current filter reference. The reference can be not mandatory. Exceptions are thrown if the check failed. If you prefer to have a boolean instead of exceptions, you can use isClassReference(Class).

Parameters:

reference - Class reference to check

mandatory - If the existence of the reference is mandatory

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - for errors on check

hasReference(), isClassReference(Class)

isClassReference

boolean isClassReference(Class<?> entityClass)

Test if the entityClass is corresponding to the current reference in the filter. Will return false if no reference is set in the filter.

Parameters:

entityClass - Class reference to test

Returns:

true if the classReference is corresponding, false otherwise
