public interface RecordFilterBuilder

The interface to be implemented by classes that provide runtime generation of record filters. Can also be used to produce an Endeca security filter. The implementations take care of Endeca record filter syntax and the names of MDEX record properties.

The record filter produced is intended be added to Endeca's list of record filters if the securityFilter property is false. If securityFilter is true, the result filter will be ANDed with output from other filter builders to produce a single Endeca security filter.
