All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object>

public class PropertyMap
extends java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object>

Object that acts as a runtime property container, used for the "compositeData" global objects within custom controls, and some other places.

Note, this does not implement StateHolder, but the items in the map or in some sub-map under it can be StateHolders, so it must be serialized using FacesUtil.objectToSerializable(FacesContext, Object) or StateHolderUtil#savePropertyMap(FacesContext, PropertyMap) which both recursively handle StateHolders in this map or any sub-maps (property-type maps). Note, the internal state of sub-maps are not saved using either of those methods, and the internal state of the top level map is only saved in the savePropertyMap method.

beginEvaluateRoot

public void beginEvaluateRoot(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,
                              javax.faces.component.UIComponent component)

Not intended to be called by 3rd parties, this is currently invoked on the root property map, that is the property map returned by FacesPropertyProvider.getPropertyMap(). The implementation calls beginEvaluatePropertyType(FacesContext, UIComponent, PropertyMap, String) on any nested property maps saved within root map, which would correspond to property-types in the xsp-config definition or to a "Group" in the Custom Control editor's Property Definition tab.

It evaluates any run-time bindings within this property map, within property maps set as a property value, or when a property value is a list of property maps. This is to ensure that the bindings are evaluated within the correct context, at the time of the control tree rendering when the objects in the outer page containing the custom control are still in scope.

Parameters:

context -

component -
