ModifierMethod (MYDATA :: SDK 4.2.1 API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

AddModifierMethod, AnagramModifierMethod, AppendModifierMethod, DeleteModifierMethod, DivideModifierMethod, HashModifierMethod, MultiplyModifierMethod, PasswordModifierMethod, PrimitiveModifierMethod, ReplaceModifierMethod, ReplaceSubStringModifierMethod, RoundModifierMethod, ShortenInitialModifierMethod, SignModifierMethod, SubStringModifierMethod
```
public interface ModifierMethod
```
Base Interface for all Modifiers. A Modifiers should have a name, that can be used in policies getDisplayName(). The Method doModification(DocumentContext, String, ParameterList) is used for modification of complex objects that are serialized to a JSON Structure. doModification(Object, ParameterList) should be overriden if the Modifiers also supports modification of primitive values including wrapper Types as well as String and Date.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`com.jayway.jsonpath.DocumentContext`	`doModification(com.jayway.jsonpath.DocumentContext documentContext, String expression, ParameterList modifierMethodParameterList)`	Modification for Complex Objects that are serialized using `JsonPath`.
`Object`	`doModification(Object currentObject, ParameterList modifierMethodParameterList)`	This method to be overridden when modifier wants to handle primitive type like Integer(int), Float(float), Boolean(boolean), Long(long), Short(short), Byte(byte) and Double(double) and String
`String`	`getDisplayName()`
`boolean`	`nameIsValid()`

```
    Modification for Complex Objects that are serialized using JsonPath.
    
    Parameters:
    
    documentContext - Serialized Object Structure with JsonPath
    
    expression - JsonPath Expression to adress a specific element/attribute in the json.
    
    modifierMethodParameterList - Values used for modification.
    
    Returns:
    
    DocumentContext
  - doModification
```
Object doModification(Object currentObject,
                      ParameterList modifierMethodParameterList)
```
    This method to be overridden when modifier wants to handle primitive type like Integer(int), Float(float), Boolean(boolean), Long(long), Short(short), Byte(byte) and Double(double) and String
    
    Parameters:
    
    currentObject - The primitive value for modification.
    
    modifierMethodParameterList - List of parameters that should be used for modification
    
    Returns:
    
    This default implementation is returning the object without modification.
  - getDisplayName
```
String getDisplayName()
```
    Returns:
    
    Display name
  - nameIsValid
```
boolean nameIsValid()
```
