public interface AttributesSchema
An attributes schema stores information about 
attributes and how they
 can be matched together.- Since:
- 3.3

Method Details- 
getMatchingStrategy<T> AttributeMatchingStrategy<T> getMatchingStrategy(Attribute<T> attribute) throws IllegalArgumentException Returns the matching strategy for a given attribute.- Type Parameters:
- T- the type of the attribute
- Parameters:
- attribute- the attribute
- Returns:
- the matching strategy for this attribute.
- Throws:
- IllegalArgumentException- When no strategy is available for the given attribute.
 
- 
attributeDeclares a new attribute in the schema and configures it with the default strategy. If the attribute was already declared it will simply return the existing strategy.- Type Parameters:
- T- the concrete type of the attribute
- Parameters:
- attribute- the attribute to declare in the schema
- Returns:
- the matching strategy for this attribute
 
- 
attribute<T> AttributeMatchingStrategy<T> attribute(Attribute<T> attribute, Action<? super AttributeMatchingStrategy<T>> configureAction) Configures the matching strategy for an attribute. The first call to this method for a specific attribute will create a new matching strategy, whereas subsequent calls will configure the existing one.- Type Parameters:
- T- the concrete type of the attribute
- Parameters:
- attribute- the attribute for which to configure the matching strategy
- configureAction- the strategy configuration
- Returns:
- the configured strategy
 
- 
getAttributesReturns the set of attributes known to this schema.
- 
hasAttributeReturns true when this schema contains the given attribute.
- 
attributeDisambiguationPrecedenceAdds attributes to the precedence order. Attributes listed first have higher precedence.The attributes will be added to any existing precedence order. If an attribute has already been added, adding it again will fail. - Parameters:
- attributes- the attributes in order
- Since:
- 7.5

- 
setAttributeDisambiguationPrecedenceSets the order of precedence of attributes when resolving ambiguity. Attributes listed first have higher precedence.By default, there is no explicit precedence between attributes and all attributes must be considered when disambiguating. - Parameters:
- attributes- the attributes in order, highest priority first
- Since:
- 7.5
 
- 
getAttributeDisambiguationPrecedenceReturns the order that attributes should be considered when resolving ambiguity.- Returns:
- an immutable list of the attributes in precedence order, with the highest priority first
- Since:
- 7.5
