    • isSubFilterOf

      public boolean isSubFilterOf(TextFilter parentFilter)
      Description copied from interface: TextFilter
      Returns true if this filter is a more specific filter of the given filter. This is specific to the implementation. Some filters cannot be sub-filters of another filter, such as the 'matches exactly' filter. Contrastingly, a 'starts with' filter can have a sub-filter; for example, for a 'starts with' filter, 'cat' is a sub-filter of 'ca', as 'cat' starts with 'ca'.
      Parameters:
      parentFilter - the potential parent filter
      Returns:
      true if this filter is a more specific filter of the given filter.
