Field Detail

TYPE

public static final ElementType TYPE

The BSON type for a Object Id.

Constructor Detail

BooleanElement

public BooleanElement(String name,
              boolean value)

Constructs a new BooleanElement.

Parameters:

name - The name for the BSON boolean.

value - The BSON boolean value.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the name is null.

Method Detail

accept

public void accept(Visitor visitor)

Accepts the visitor and calls the Visitor.visitBoolean(java.lang.String, boolean) method.

Parameters:

visitor - The visitor for the element.

See Also:

Element.accept(Visitor)

equals

public boolean equals(Object object)

Determines if the passed object is of this same type as this object and if so that its fields are equal.

Overrides:

equals in class AbstractElement

Parameters:

object - The object to compare to.

See Also:

Object.equals(java.lang.Object)

getType

public ElementType getType()

Returns the type for the BSON type.

Returns:

The type for the BSON type.

getValue

public boolean getValue()

Returns the BSON boolean value.

Returns:

The BSON boolean value.

getValueAsObject

public Boolean getValueAsObject()

Returns the value for BSON element as a Java Object type.

Automatic conversion from the Object-ified value to an element is provided via the DocumentBuilder.add(String, Object) method. Not all element types will be successfully converted to the same element duing a Element-->Object value-->Element conversion. This cases are noted in the appropriate sub-type's JavaDoc.

Sub-types will also overload this method with the appropriate type returned. e.g., The StringElement.getValueAsObject() method signature returns a String.

Returns a Boolean.

Returns:

The value for BSON element as a Java Object type.

getValueAsString

public String getValueAsString()

Returns the value for BSON element as a Java String. Automatic conversion from the string value back to an Element is not provided.

Generally the string returned will be the expected value. As an example for a LongElement with the value 101 the returned string will be "101". In those cases where there is not canonical form for the value (e.g., a TimestampElement the returned string will match the value when converted to JSON by the JsonSerializationVisitor. For a TimestampElement that is a string of the form "ISODate('1970-01-01T00:00:00.000+0000')".

Uses the JsonSerializationVisitor to encode the value. In some cases it will be more efficient to override this method with a more straight forward conversion.

Returns "true" or "false".

Specified by:

getValueAsString in interface Element

Overrides:

getValueAsString in class AbstractElement

Returns:

The value for BSON element as a String.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Computes a reasonable hash code.

Overrides:

hashCode in class AbstractElement

Returns:

The hash code value.

withName

public BooleanElement withName(String name)

Creates a new element with the same type and value as this element but with the specified name. This is useful when creating a query across a set of collections where the filed name changes in the collections but the values must be identical.

Returns a new BooleanElement.

Parameters:

name - The new name for the element.

Returns:

The created element.
