Method Detail

addChild

public void addChild(Criteria aChild)
              throws IllegalStateException,
                     IllegalArgumentException

Adds a child Criteria to the CriteriaNode. In case a specialized CriteriaNode applies constraints on the number or type of Criteria which may be added, an according exception may be thrown. For example the SingleCriteriaNode applies constraints on this method.

Specified by:

addChild in interface CriteriaNode

Parameters:

aChild - The child Criteria to be added.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - In case constraints in terms of state are violated, implementation depended.

IllegalArgumentException - In case constraints in terms of argument are violated, implementation depended.

getChildren

public List<Criteria> getChildren()

Returns the list of child Criteria instances contained in the CriteriaNode.

Specified by:

getChildren in interface CriteriaNode

Returns:

The Criteria instances contained in the CriteriaNode.
