Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
GivenConjunction<OBJECTS>	and(DescribedPredicate<? super OBJECTS> predicate) Combines the current predicate (e.g.
GivenConjunction<OBJECTS>	or(DescribedPredicate<? super OBJECTS> predicate) Combines the current predicate (e.g.
ArchRule	should(ArchCondition<OBJECTS> condition)

Method Detail

should

ArchRule should(ArchCondition<OBJECTS> condition)

and

GivenConjunction<OBJECTS> and(DescribedPredicate<? super OBJECTS> predicate)

Combines the current predicate (e.g. simpleName == 'SomeClass') with another predicate (e.g. resideInAPackage 'foo.bar') using AND (i.e. both predicates must be satisfied).

NOTE: and(DescribedPredicate) and or(DescribedPredicate) combine predicates in the sequence they are declared, without any "operator precedence". I.e.

 all(objects()).that(predicateA).or(predicateB).and(predicateC)...
 

will filter on predicate (predicateA || predicateB) && predicateC, and

 all(objects()).that(predicateA).and(predicateB).or(predicateC)...
 

will filter on predicate (predicateA && predicateB) || predicateC. If you need more control over the precedence, how predicates are joined, you have to join these predicates separately, i.e.

 all(objects()).that(predicateA.or(predicateB.and(predicateC)))...
 

Parameters:

predicate - The predicate to be ANDed on the current object filter predicate

Returns:

A syntax conjunction element, which can be completed to form a full rule

or

GivenConjunction<OBJECTS> or(DescribedPredicate<? super OBJECTS> predicate)

Combines the current predicate (e.g. simpleName == 'SomeClass') with another predicate (e.g. resideInAPackage 'foo.bar') using OR (i.e. at least one of the predicates must be satisfied).

NOTE: For considerations about precedence, when joining predicates, consider note at and(DescribedPredicate)

Parameters:

predicate - The predicate to be ORed on the current object filter predicate

Returns:

A syntax conjunction element, which can be completed to form a full rule
