parseRules

public static GraphPolicy parseRules(GraphPathBean graphPathBean,
                                     java.util.Collection<GraphPolicyRule> rules)
                              throws GraphException

Convert the text-based rules as specified in the configuration metadata into a policy applicable in model object graph traversal. (A more advanced effort could construct an efficient decision tree, but that optimization may be premature.)

Parameters:

graphPathBean - the graph path bean

rules - the rules to apply

Returns:

a policy for graph traversal by GraphTraversal

Throws:

GraphException - if the text-based rules could not be parsed
