isRendered

public boolean isRendered()

Returns the rendered property

Specified by:

isRendered in interface Resource

Returns:

Returns the rendered.

setRendered

public void setRendered(boolean rendered)

Description copied from interface: Resource

Set the rendered property of the resource.

Specified by:

setRendered in interface Resource

Parameters:

getServerResourceContents

protected java.lang.Object getServerResourceContents(java.lang.String serverUrl,
                                                     java.lang.String serverCharset,
                                                     java.lang.String contentsPropertyValue)
                                              throws java.io.IOException

Utility method used by server-side resources to load the contents of the resource. A server-side resource usually references a file in the current NSF, then loads and publishes the contents of that resource while the UIComponent tree is processed on the server. Methods using this utility should probably check isRendered() before invoking this method. The method loadContents(String, String) is used to load the URL contents. The loaded contents of the server URL are usually cached, but if persistence is enabled the loaded contents are discarded instead of serialized.

Parameters:

serverUrl - path or URL to resource to be loaded on the server

serverCharset - character set of the resource to be loaded on the server

contentsPropertyValue - value provided through the "contents" property in the XPage source, to be used instead of the serverUrl contents.

Returns:

the loaded resource, or null if the serverUrl is empty

Throws:

java.io.IOException

FacesExceptionEx

loadContents

protected java.lang.Object loadContents(java.lang.String url,
                                        java.lang.String charset)
                                 throws java.io.IOException

Load the contents from the URI specified source.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

saveState

public java.lang.Object saveState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context)

Specified by:

saveState in interface javax.faces.component.StateHolder

Overrides:

saveState in class ValueBindingObjectImpl

restoreState

public void restoreState(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,
                         java.lang.Object state)

Specified by:

restoreState in interface javax.faces.component.StateHolder

Overrides:

restoreState in class ValueBindingObjectImpl

encodeObject

public void encodeObject(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context,
                         javax.faces.component.UIComponent component)
                  throws java.io.IOException

A default implementation provided for when this resource implements EncodableObject. Implementors should call setRendererType(String) in their constructor. It will delegate to a ResourceRenderer for the current family and rendererType.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getFamily

public java.lang.String getFamily()

Used when this resource implements EncodableObject, see encodeObject(FacesContext, UIComponent).

Returns:

getRendererType

public java.lang.String getRendererType()

Used when this resource implements EncodableObject, see encodeObject(FacesContext, UIComponent).

Returns:

the rendererType

setRendererType

public void setRendererType(java.lang.String rendererType)

Used when this resource implements EncodableObject, see encodeObject(FacesContext, UIComponent).

Parameters:

rendererType - the rendererType to set
