Class ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory

java.lang.Object
javax.faces.view.ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory
All Implemented Interfaces:
FacesWrapper<ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory>
public abstract class ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory extends Object implements FacesWrapper<ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory>

ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory is a factory object that creates (if needed) and returns a new ViewDeclarationLanguage instance based on the VDL found in a specific view.

There must be one ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory instance per web application that is utilizing JavaServer Faces. This instance can be acquired, in a portable manner, by calling:


   ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory factory = (ViewDeclarationLanguageFactory)
    FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.VIEW_DECLARATION_LANGUAGE_FACTORY);

Usage: extend this class and push the implementation being wrapped to the constructor and use getWrapped() to access the instance being wrapped.

Since:
2.0

    • getViewDeclarationLanguage

      public abstract ViewDeclarationLanguage getViewDeclarationLanguage(String viewId)

      Return the ViewDeclarationLanguage instance suitable for handling the VDL contained in the page referenced by the argument viewId. The default implementation must return a valid ViewDeclarationLanguage instance for views written in either JSP, Faces XML Views, or Facelets for JSF 2.

      Parameters:
      viewId - the viewId to be inspected for an appropriate ViewDeclarationLanguage implementation for the VDL used in the view.
      Returns:
