Class Rule

java.lang.Object

com.appiancorp.suiteapi.process.events.Rule

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class Rule
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

Represents a single condition in the set of conditions on an event trigger. Not to be confused with a content rule, which is a stored expression usable within other expressions throughout the application. An event trigger condition (rule) must evaluate to a boolean.

Field Detail

SIMPLE_RULE

public static final java.lang.Long SIMPLE_RULE

Type code for a simple rule (consists of left operand, operator, and right operand). This displays in the modeler as two text fields and a dropdown in the middle for the operand. This is called a "Condition" in the modeler (e.g., the button to add this says "Add Condition").

COMPLEX_RULE

public static final java.lang.Long COMPLEX_RULE

Type code for a complex rule (can be any expression). This displays in the modeler as a single text field.

setExpression(String)

setExpression

public void setExpression(java.lang.String expression_)

Sets the expression, which should evaluate to a boolean. Only applicable if getType() returns COMPLEX_RULE.

Parameters:

expression_ - the expression

See Also:

getExpression()

getLeftOperand

public java.lang.String getLeftOperand()

Gets the left operand in a simple rule. Only applicable if getType() returns SIMPLE_RULE. Otherwise, this will return null.

Returns:

the left operand

See Also:

setLeftOperand(String)

setLeftOperand

public void setLeftOperand(java.lang.String leftOperand_)

Sets the left operand in a simple rule. Only applicable if getType() returns SIMPLE_RULE.

Parameters:

leftOperand_ - the left operand

See Also:

getOperator

public java.lang.String getOperator()

Gets the operator in a simple rule. Only applicable if getType() returns SIMPLE_RULE. Otherwise, this will return null.

Returns:

the left operand

See Also:

setOperator(String)

setOperator

public void setOperator(java.lang.String operator_)
