public Object eval(Serializable key)

Attempts to find a value associated with the specified key, using the value expression collection from the component if no such value is found.

Parameters

key:Serializable: the name of the value in the internal map, or the name of a value expression in the components value expression collection.

Returns:Object

the evaluated value.

Since

2.0

eval back to summary

eval	back to summary
public Object eval(Serializable key, Object defaultValue) Performs the same logic as `eval(java.io.Serializable)` } but if no value is found, this will return the specified `defaultValue` Parameters key:Serializable the key for which the value should be returned. defaultValue:Object the value to return if no value is found in the call to `eval()`. Returns:Object the evaluated value. Since 2.0

public Object eval(Serializable key, Object defaultValue)

Performs the same logic as eval(java.io.Serializable) } but if no value is found, this will return the specified defaultValue

Parameters

key:Serializable: the key for which the value should be returned.
defaultValue:Object: the value to return if no value is found in the call to eval().

Returns:Object

the evaluated value.

Since

key:Serializable: the key for which the value should be returned.

Returns:Object

the value.

Since

2.0

put	back to summary
public Object put(Serializable key, Object value) Return the previously stored value and store the specified key/value pair. This is intended to store data that would otherwise reside in an instance variable on the component. Parameters key:Serializable the key for the value value:Object the value Returns:Object the previously stored value Since 2.0

put

back to summary

public Object put(Serializable key, Object value)

Return the previously stored value and store the specified key/value pair. This is intended to store data that would otherwise reside in an instance variable on the component.

put back to summary

put	back to summary
public Object put(Serializable key, String mapKey, Object value) Store the specified `mapKey`/`value` in a `Map` that is internal to the helper, and return the previously stored value. The `Map` will then be associated with `key`. It's important to note for delta tracking that any modifications to the internal `Map` be made through this method or `StateHelper#remove(java.io.Serializable, Object)`. Parameters key:Serializable the key of the map itself mapKey:String the key within the internal map value:Object the value for the key in the internal map Returns:Object the value. Since 2.0

public Object put(Serializable key, String mapKey, Object value)

Store the specified mapKey/value in a Map that is internal to the helper, and return the previously stored value. The Map will then be associated with key.

It's important to note for delta tracking that any modifications to the internal Map be made through this method or StateHelper#remove(java.io.Serializable, Object).

Parameters

key:Serializable: the key of the map itself
mapKey:String: the key within the internal map
value:Object: the value for the key in the internal map

Returns:Object

the value.

Since

2.0

remove	back to summary
public Object remove(Serializable key) Remove the key/value pair from the helper, returning the value previously stored under this key. Parameters key:Serializable the key to remove Returns:Object the removed value. Since 2.0

remove

back to summary

public Object remove(Serializable key)

Remove the key/value pair from the helper, returning the value previously stored under this key.

Parameters

key:Serializable: the key to remove

Returns:Object

the removed value.

Since

2.0

remove back to summary

remove	back to summary
public Object remove(Serializable key, Object valueOrKey) Remove a value from the inner data structure. Look in the inner data structure for the value at the given `key`. If the value is a `Map`, remove and return the value under the key given by the `valueOrKey` argument. If the value is a `Collection`, simply remove the value given by the argument `valueOrKey` and return null. Parameters key:Serializable the key of in the inner data structure whose value is a `Collection` or `Map` valueOrKey:Object the value or key to be removed. Returns:Object the removed value.

public Object remove(Serializable key, Object valueOrKey)

Remove a value from the inner data structure. Look in the inner data structure for the value at the given key. If the value is a Map, remove and return the value under the key given by the valueOrKey argument. If the value is a Collection, simply remove the value given by the argument valueOrKey and return null.

Parameters

key:Serializable: the key of in the inner data structure whose value is a Collection or Map
valueOrKey:Object: the value or key to be removed.

Returns:Object

the removed value.
