All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.rules.ObjectFilter, java.io.Serializable

public class DefaultObjectFilter

extends java.lang.Object

implements javax.rules.ObjectFilter

This class implements the ObjectFilter interface. This is the default object filter for the RuleExecutionSet. The ObjectFilter interface is used to filter objects. The caller passes an implementation of this interface to a method and receives callbacks that allow the caller to filter the output objects as desired. Filters can either build up state within themselves or can merely block or pass objects based on a filtering algorithm.
