public class FilterFactory

extends java.lang.Object

implements IARObjectFactory

The methods in the FilterFactory class are used to instantiate a new filter object or to get an existing filter from the server. You then define the properties of the object, and then you can perform different operations (e.g. set/create/delete) on the object from the server side.

The following Java code snippet is an example of how to get a filter object that is existing on the server:

FilterFactory filterFactory = FilterFactory.getFactory( );
      FilterKey key = new FilterKey( );
      FilterCriteria criteria = null;
      if( FilterKey.GetBoolean( false )
      {
          criteria = new FilterCriteria( );
          criteria.setRetrieveAll( true );
      }
      Filter filter = filterFactory.findByKey( context, key, criteria );
