Constructor Detail

LeafNode

protected LeafNode(AttributeType attributeType,
                   AssertionType assertionType)

Creates a leaf node.

Parameters:

attributeType - the attribute this node is based on

assertionType - the type of this leaf node

LeafNode

protected LeafNode(String attribute,
                   AssertionType assertionType)

Creates a leaf node.

Parameters:

attribute - the attribute this node is based on

assertionType - the type of this leaf node

Method Detail

isLeaf

public final boolean isLeaf()

Gets whether this node is a leaf - the answer is always true here.

Returns:

true always

getAttributeType

public final AttributeType getAttributeType()

Gets the attributeType this leaf node is based on.

Returns:

the attributeType asserted

getAttribute

public final String getAttribute()

Gets the attribute this leaf node is based on.

Returns:

the attribute asserted

setAttributeType

public void setAttributeType(AttributeType attributeType)

Sets the attributeType this leaf node is based on.

Parameters:

attributeType - the attributeType that is asserted by this filter node

setAttribute

public void setAttribute(String attribute)

Sets the attribute this leaf node is based on.

Parameters:

attribute - the attribute that is asserted by this filter node

accept

public final Object accept(FilterVisitor visitor)

Description copied from interface: ExprNode

Element/node accept method for visitor pattern.

Parameters:

visitor - the filter expression tree structure visitor

Returns:

The modified element

See Also:

ExprNode.accept( FilterVisitor)

isSchemaAware

public boolean isSchemaAware()

Tells if this Node is Schema aware.

Returns:

true if the Node is SchemaAware

escapeFilterValue

protected static String escapeFilterValue(AttributeType attributeType,
                                          byte[] value)

Handles the escaping of special characters in LDAP search filter assertion values using the <valueencoding> rule as described in RFC 4515. Needed so that ExprNode.printRefinementToBuffer(StringBuilder) results in a valid filter string that can be parsed again (as a way of cloning filters).

Parameters:

attributeType - The associated AttributeType

value - Right hand side of "attrId=value" assertion occurring in an LDAP search filter.

Returns:

Escaped version of value

escapeFilterValue

protected static String escapeFilterValue(String value)

Handles the escaping of special characters in LDAP search filter assertion values using the <valueencoding> rule as described in RFC 4515. Needed so that ExprNode.printRefinementToBuffer(StringBuilder) results in a valid filter string that can be parsed again (as a way of cloning filters).

Parameters:

value - Right hand side of "attrId=value" assertion occurring in an LDAP search filter.

Returns:

Escaped version of value

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class AbstractExprNode

Returns:

the instance's hash code

See Also:

Object.hashCode()

equals

public boolean equals(Object other)

Overrides:

equals in class AbstractExprNode

Returns:

true if both objects are equal

See Also:

Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
