All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`NestedPredicateTerminalContext`	`nest(Function<? super SearchPredicateFactoryContext,? extends SearchPredicateTerminalContext> predicateContributor)` Create a context allowing to define the inner predicate, and apply a consumer to it.
`NestedPredicateTerminalContext`	`nest(SearchPredicate searchPredicate)` Set the inner predicate to a previously-built `SearchPredicate`.
`default NestedPredicateTerminalContext`	`nest(SearchPredicateTerminalContext terminalContext)` Set the inner predicate to an almost-built `SearchPredicate`.

```
NestedPredicateTerminalContext nest(SearchPredicate searchPredicate)
```
    Set the inner predicate to a previously-built SearchPredicate.
    Matching documents are those for which at least one element of the nested object field matches the inner predicate.
    
    Parameters:
    
    searchPredicate - The predicate that must be matched by at least one element of the nested object field.
    
    Returns:
    
    A context allowing to get the resulting predicate.
  - nest
```
default NestedPredicateTerminalContext nest(SearchPredicateTerminalContext terminalContext)
```
    Set the inner predicate to an almost-built SearchPredicate.
    Matching documents are those for which at least one element of the nested object field matches the inner predicate.
    
    Parameters:
    
    terminalContext - The terminal context allowing to retrieve a SearchPredicate.
    
    Returns:
    
    A context allowing to get the resulting predicate.
  - nest
```
NestedPredicateTerminalContext nest(Function<? super SearchPredicateFactoryContext,? extends SearchPredicateTerminalContext> predicateContributor)
```
    Create a context allowing to define the inner predicate, and apply a consumer to it.
    Best used with lambda expressions.
    Matching documents are those for which at least one element of the nested object field matches the inner predicate.
    
    Parameters:
    
    predicateContributor - A function that will use the DSL context passed in parameter to create a predicate, returning the resulting terminal context. Should generally be a lambda expression.
    
    Returns:
    
    A context allowing to get the resulting predicate.
