Method Details
-
setBinding
Set the value expression for our component.
- Parameters:
binding
- The new value expression- Throws:
JspException
- if an error occurs
-
hasBinding
protected boolean hasBinding()Description copied from class:UIComponentClassicTagBase
Return
true
if this component has a non-null
binding attribute. This method is necessary to allow subclasses that expose thebinding
property as an Faces 1.1 style EL property as well as subclasses that expose it as an EL API property.- Specified by:
hasBinding
in classUIComponentClassicTagBase
-
setRendered
Set an override for the rendered attribute.
- Parameters:
rendered
- The new value for rendered attribute
-
getELContext
Return the
ELContext
for theFacesContext
for this request.This is a convenience for
getFacesContext().getELContext()
.- Overrides:
getELContext
in classUIComponentTagBase
-
release
public void release()Release any resources allocated during the execution of this tag handler.
- Specified by:
release
in interfaceTag
- Overrides:
release
in classUIComponentClassicTagBase
-
setProperties
Override properties and attributes of the specified component, if the corresponding properties of this tag handler instance were explicitly set. This method must be called ONLY if the specified
UIComponent
was in fact created during the execution of this tag handler instance, and this call will occur BEFORE theUIComponent
is added to the view.Tag subclasses that want to support additional set properties must ensure that the base class
setProperties()
method is still called. A typical implementation that supports extra propertiesfoo
andbar
would look something like this:protected void setProperties(UIComponent component) { super.setProperties(component); if (foo != null) { component.setAttribute("foo", foo); } if (bar != null) { component.setAttribute("bar", bar); } }
The default implementation overrides the following properties:
rendered
- Set if a value for therendered
property is specified for this tag handler instance.rendererType
- Set if thegetRendererType()
method returns a non-null value.
- Specified by:
setProperties
in classUIComponentClassicTagBase
- Parameters:
component
-UIComponent
whose properties are to be overridden
-
createComponent
Create and return a new child component of the type returned by calling
getComponentType()
. If thisUIComponentELTag
has a non-nullbinding
attribute, this is done by callApplication.createComponent(java.lang.String)
with theValueExpression
created for thebinding
attribute, and theValueExpression
will be stored on the component. Otherwise,Application.createComponent(java.lang.String)
is called with only the component type. Finally, initialize the components id and other properties.- Specified by:
createComponent
in classUIComponentClassicTagBase
- Parameters:
context
-FacesContext
for the current requestnewId
- id of the component- Throws:
JspException
