MatchPredicateStrategy (Apache TinkerPop 3.5.5 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.process.traversal.strategy.AbstractTraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>
- - org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.process.traversal.strategy.optimization.MatchPredicateStrategy

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<Class<? extends TraversalStrategy>>, TraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>, TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy
```
public final class MatchPredicateStrategy
extends AbstractTraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>
implements TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy
```
MatchWhereStrategy will fold any post-where() step that maintains a traversal constraint into match(). MatchStep is intelligent with traversal constraint applications and thus, can more efficiently use the constraint of WhereTraversalStep or WherePredicateStep.

Example:
```
 __.match(a,b).where(c)            // is replaced by __.match(a,b,c)
 __.match(a,b).select().where(c)   // is replaced by __.match(a,b,c).select()

- Method Detail
  - apply
```
public void apply(Traversal.Admin<?,?> traversal)
```
    Specified by:
    
    apply in interface TraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>
  - instance
```
public static MatchPredicateStrategy instance()
```
  - applyPrior
```
public Set<Class<? extends TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>> applyPrior()
```
    Description copied from interface: TraversalStrategy
    
    The set of strategies that must be executed before this strategy is executed. If there are no ordering requirements, the default implementation returns an empty set.
    
    Specified by:
    
    applyPrior in interface TraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>
    
    Returns:
    
    the set of strategies that must be executed prior to this one.
  - applyPost
```
public Set<Class<? extends TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>> applyPost()
```
    Description copied from interface: TraversalStrategy
    
    The set of strategies that must be executed after this strategy is executed. If there are no ordering requirements, the default implementation returns an empty set.
    
    Specified by:
    
    applyPost in interface TraversalStrategy<TraversalStrategy.OptimizationStrategy>
    
    Returns:
    
    the set of strategies that must be executed post this one
