Class OACompare

java.lang.Object

com.viaoa.util.OACompare

public class OACompare
extends Object

Uses coercion to compare objects, even if objects are different classes. Ex: String "1234" will equal double 1234.00 ex: boolean true will equal any number but 0, any value except null, any string except '' blank Also allows for comparing with Hub or Array to another Hub/Array, or single object (hub.AO or hub[0]&size=1, array.length=1&array[0])

Compare objects, converting them (using OAConverter class) if necessary.
Coercion Rules will use the following for converting values before comparing:
check if array type if check if Hub type value, matchValue can be any type of object, including Hub or Array. value, matchValue do not have to be same class. value or matchValue can be one of the following: OAAnyValueObject OANotExist OANotNullObject OANullObject

isNotEmpty

public static boolean isNotEmpty(Object obj)

isEmpty

public static boolean isEmpty(Object obj)

isEmpty

public static boolean isEmpty(Object obj,
                              boolean bTrim)

Checks to see if the value of an object can be considered empty. example: null, an empty array, an collection with no elements, a primitive set to 0, primitive boolean that is false, a string with only spaces (if using bTrim)

Parameters:

obj -

bTrim - if true and object is a string, then spaces will be ignored.
