Class GreaterThanJSONObjectFilter

java.lang.Object

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable

This class provides an implementation of a JSON object filter that can be used to identify JSON objects that have at least one value for a specified field that is greater than a given value.
NOTE: This class, and other classes within the com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.unboundidds package structure, are only supported for use against Ping Identity, UnboundID, and Nokia/Alcatel-Lucent 8661 server products. These classes provide support for proprietary functionality or for external specifications that are not considered stable or mature enough to be guaranteed to work in an interoperable way with other types of LDAP servers.

The fields that are required to be included in a "greater than" filter are:
  • field -- A field path specifier for the JSON field for which to make the determination. This may be either a single string or an array of strings as described in the "Targeting Fields in JSON Objects" section of the class-level documentation for JSONObjectFilter.
  • value -- The value to use in the matching. It must be either a string (which will be compared against other strings using lexicographic comparison) or a number.
The fields that may optionally be included in a "greater than" filter are:
  • allowEquals -- Indicates whether to match JSON objects that have a value for the specified field that matches the provided value. If present, this field must have a Boolean value of either true (to indicate that it should be a "greater-than or equal to" filter) or false (to indicate that it should be a strict "greater-than" filter). If this is not specified, then the default behavior will be to perform a strict "greater-than" evaluation.
  • matchAllElements -- Indicates whether all elements of an array must be greater than (or possibly equal to) the specified value. If present, this field must have a Boolean value of true (to indicate that all elements of the array must match the criteria for this filter) or false (to indicate that at least one element of the array must match the criteria for this filter). If this is not specified, then the default behavior will be to require only at least one matching element. This field will be ignored for JSON objects in which the specified field has a value that is not an array.
  • caseSensitive -- Indicates whether string values should be treated in a case-sensitive manner. If present, this field must have a Boolean value of either true or false. If it is not provided, then a default value of false will be assumed so that strings are treated in a case-insensitive manner.

Example

The following is an example of a "greater than" filter that will match any JSON object with a top-level field named "salary" with a value that is greater than or equal to 50000:
   { "filterType" : "greaterThan",
     "field" : "salary",
     "value" : 50000,
     "allowEquals" : true }
 
The above filter can be created with the code:
   GreaterThanJSONObjectFilter filter =
        new GreaterThanJSONObjectFilter("salary", 50000);
   filter.setAllowEquals(true);
