Javadoc on MultiValueBinding. Hide QuerydslBindings.bind(…), ….include(…) and ….exclude(…) methods that take String arguments to reduce the probability of no query class being present.
Refined the value handling for empty request values which are represented as String[] containing an empty String. We now massage those into an empty Collection for MultiValueBindings and a null value for SingleValueInvocations.
We currently skip property values that match this pattern entirely but are prepared to allow a configuration flip switch to handle those scenarios in the future. We currently stick to skipping those values to prevent the bindings from having to deal with null values.
We now also allow the bindings to return null to indicate they don't want to get applied in the resulting predicate at all.
Switched to interface based customization to make it easier to use customizations with Spring Data REST. Added Querydsl-specific adapter of RepositoryInvoker to allow Spring Data REST to hook in the execution of the predicate obtained from request parameters.
