/**
 * Predicate that compares the input object with the one stored in the predicate using a comparator.
 * In addition, the comparator result can be evaluated in accordance to a supplied criterion value.
 *
 * 

* In order to demonstrate the use of the predicate, the following variables are declared: *

* *
 * 
 * Integer ONE = Integer.valueOf(1);
 * 
 * Integer TWO = Integer.valueOf(2);
 *
 * Comparator comparator = new Comparator(){
 *
 *                           public int compare(Object first,Object second){
 *                               return ((Integer) second) - ((Integer) first);
 *                           }
 *
 *                       };
 * 
* *

* Using the declared variables, the ComparatorPredicate can be used used in the * following way: *

* *
 * ComparatorPredicate.comparatorPredicate(ONE, comparator).evaluate(TWO);
 * 
* *

* The input variable TWO in compared to the stored variable ONE using * the supplied comparator. This is the default usage of the predicate and will return * true if the underlying comparator returns 0. In addition to the default * usage of the predicate, it is possible to evaluate the comparator's result in several ways. The * following {@link Criterion} enumeration values are provided by the predicate: *

* *
    *
  • EQUAL
  • *
  • GREATER
  • *
  • GREATER_OR_EQUAL
  • *
  • LESS
  • *
  • LESS_OR_EQUAL
  • *
* *

* The following examples demonstrates how these constants can be used in order to manipulate the * evaluation of a comparator result. *

* *
 * ComparatorPredicate.comparatorPredicate(ONE, comparator,ComparatorPredicate.Criterion.GREATER).evaluate(TWO);
 * 
* *

* The input variable TWO is compared to the stored variable ONE using the supplied comparator * using the GREATER evaluation criterion constant. This instructs the predicate to * return true if the comparator returns a value greater than 0. *
