Interface MetaDataEventMatcher<E extends GenericMetaDataEvent<?,?>>

Type Parameters:
E - The matchee type
All Superinterfaces:
org.refcodes.mixin.AliasAccessor, EventMatcher<E>, org.refcodes.matcher.Matchable<E>, org.refcodes.matcher.Matcher<E>, org.refcodes.mixin.Schemable<org.refcodes.matcher.MatcherSchema>
public interface MetaDataEventMatcher<E extends GenericMetaDataEvent<?,?>> extends EventMatcher<E>
This interface typifies the Matcher interface for the usage with GenericMetaDataEvent instances. An EventMatcher most commonly uses the EventMetaData (as defined with the GenericMetaDataEvent) in order to determine whether an GenericActionEvent matches EventMetaData properties or not.
