extends <a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/Object.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in java.lang">Object</a>
implements org.apache.commons.collections.Predicate</pre>
<div class="block"><p><code>Predicate</code> that evaluates a property value against a specified value.</p>
 <p>
 An implementation of <code>org.apache.commons.collections.Predicate</code> that evaluates a
 property value on the object provided against a specified value and returns <code>true</code>
 if equal; <code>false</code> otherwise.
 The <code>BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate</code> constructor takes two parameters which
 determine what property will be evaluated on the target object and what its expected value should
 be.
 <dl>
    <dt>
       <strong><code>
           <pre>public BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate( String propertyName, Object propertyValue )</pre>
       </code></strong>
    </dt>
    <dd>
       Will create a <code>Predicate</code> that will evaluate the target object and return
       <code>true</code> if the property specified by <code>propertyName</code> has a value which
       is equal to the the value specified by <code>propertyValue</code>. Or return
       <code>false</code> otherwise.
    </dd>
 </dl>
 </p>
 <p>
 <strong>Note:</strong> Property names can be a simple, nested, indexed, or mapped property as defined by
 <code>org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils</code>.  If any object in the property path
 specified by <code>propertyName</code> is <code>null</code> then the outcome is based on the
 value of the <code>ignoreNull</code> attribute.
 </p>
 <p>
 A typical usage might look like:
 <code><pre>
 // create the closure
 BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate predicate =
    new BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate( "activeEmployee", Boolean.FALSE );

 // filter the Collection
 CollectionUtils.filter( peopleCollection, predicate );
 </pre></code>
 </p>
 <p>
 This would take a <code>Collection</code> of person objects and filter out any people whose
 <code>activeEmployee</code> property is <code>false</code>. Assuming...
 <ul>
    <li>
       The top level object in the <code>peeopleCollection</code> is an object which represents a
       person.
    </li>
    <li>
       The person object has a <code>getActiveEmployee()</code> method which returns
       the boolean value for the object's <code>activeEmployee</code> property.
    </li>
 </ul>
 </p>
 <p>
 Another typical usage might look like:
 <code><pre>
 // create the closure
 BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate predicate =
    new BeanPropertyValueEqualsPredicate( "personId", "456-12-1234" );

 // search the Collection
 CollectionUtils.find( peopleCollection, predicate );
 </pre></code>
 </p>
 <p>
 This would search a <code>Collection</code> of person objects and return the first object whose
 <code>personId</code> property value equals <code>456-12-1234</code>. Assuming...
 <ul>
    <li>
       The top level object in the <code>peeopleCollection</code> is an object which represents a
       person.
    </li>
    <li>
       The person object has a <code>getPersonId()</code> method which returns
       the value for the object's <code>personId</code> property.
    </li>
 </ul>
