Interface Predicate7<P1,P2,P3,P4,P5,P6,P7>

Type Parameters:

P1 - parameter type 1

P2 - parameter type 2

P3 - parameter type 3

P4 - parameter type 4

P5 - parameter type 5

P6 - parameter type 6

P7 - parameter type 7

All Superinterfaces:

java.util.function.Predicate<ITuple7<? extends P1,? extends P2,? extends P3,? extends P4,? extends P5,? extends P6,? extends P7>>, Predicate1<ITuple7<? extends P1,? extends P2,? extends P3,? extends P4,? extends P5,? extends P6,? extends P7>>

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface Predicate7<P1,P2,P3,P4,P5,P6,P7>
extends Predicate1<ITuple7<? extends P1,? extends P2,? extends P3,? extends P4,? extends P5,? extends P6,? extends P7>>

A function with seven arguments which returns a boolean value.

Predicates can be chained to simulate boolean logic by and(Predicate7), or(Predicate7), xor(Predicate7), and negate().

There is a general problem with combining types which don't allow to use the above combination methods in all cases similar to standard Java's logical expressions. The following static methods of this interface may be used in all cases: and(Predicate7, Predicate7), or(Predicate7, Predicate7), and xor(Predicate7, Predicate7).

Useful for start values in algorithms or as default values are the two values returned by alwaysTrue() (a predicate which always returns true regardless the argument applied to the test(Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object) method) and alwaysFalse() (same for false).

Partial evaluation is also possible.

Get a chained predicate which first applies the given 5-parameter function, then this predicate. The given function has to return a ITuple7 with matching parametric types which are applied in their order to this function.

Type Parameters:

FR - function before's return type, has to be a 7-tuple with matching types

FP1 - function before's first parameter type, sane for returned predicate

FP2 - function before's second parameter type, sane for returned predicate

FP3 - function before's third parameter type, sane for returned predicate

FP4 - function before's fourth parameter type, sane for returned predicate

FP5 - function before's fifth parameter type, sane for returned predicate

Parameters:

before - function to apply first, has to return a non-null result so unpacking the parameters from the tuple is possible

Returns:

chain of the given function and this predicate
