  extended bywt.fc.WTObject
      extended bywt.lifecycle.Criterion
All Implemented Interfaces:
DisplayIdentification, Externalizable, NetFactor, ObjectMappable, Persistable, Serializable

public class Criterion
extends WTObject
implements ObjectMappable, Externalizable

Criterion is a standard for basing a decision. It defines an assertion which evalutates to true or false and maintains the disposition of that declaration.

Use the newCriterion static factory method(s), not the Criterion constructor, to construct instances of this class. Instances must be constructed using the static factory(s), in order to ensure proper initialization of the instance.
