Class Inheritance
All Implemented Interfaces
javax.faces.FacesWrapper
Imports
java.util.List, javax.faces.FacesWrapper, javax.faces.component.ContextCallback, .UIComponent, javax.faces.context.FacesContext

Provides a simple implementation of SearchExpressionHandler that can be subclassed by developers wishing to provide specialized behavior to an existing SearchExpressionHandler instance. The default implementation of all methods is to call through to the wrapped SearchExpressionHandler instance. Usage: extend this class and push the implementation being wrapped to the constructor and use getWrapped to access the instance being wrapped.

2.3

A class that implements this interface uses this method to return an instance of the class being wrapped.

Returns:SearchExpressionHandler

the wrapped instance.

public void invokeOnComponent(SearchExpressionContext searchExpressionContext, String expression, ContextCallback callback)

Overrides javax.faces.component.search.SearchExpressionHandler.invokeOnComponent.

Doc from javax.faces.component.search.SearchExpressionHandler.invokeOnComponent.

Resolves multiple UIComponents for the given expression. For each resolved component, the ContextCallback will be invoked. This method is the most essential method in the API. It implements the algorithm which handles the recursion of the keywords and id's.

Parameters
searchExpressionContext:SearchExpressionContext

the SearchExpressionContext

expression:String

the search expression

callback:ContextCallback

the callback for the resolved component

Implements abstract javax.faces.component.search.SearchExpressionHandler.invokeOnComponent.

Doc from javax.faces.component.search.SearchExpressionHandler.invokeOnComponent.

Resolves multiple UIComponents for the given expression. For each resolved component, the ContextCallback will be invoked. This method is the most essential method in the API. It implements the algorithm which handles the recursion of the keywords and id's.

Parameters
searchExpressionContext:SearchExpressionContext

the SearchExpressionContext

previous:UIComponent

The previous resolved component, that will be the base for searching

expression:String

the search expression

callback:ContextCallback

the callback for the resolved component

public boolean isPassthroughExpression(SearchExpressionContext searchExpressionContext, String expression)

Implements abstract javax.faces.component.search.SearchExpressionHandler.isPassthroughExpression.

Doc from javax.faces.component.search.SearchExpressionHandler.isPassthroughExpression.

Checks if the given expression is a "passtrough expression". A passthrough expression must only be a keyword. This keyword will not be resolved by the SearchKeywordResolver and will be returned untouched. The client is responsible to resolve it later.

Parameters
searchExpressionContext:SearchExpressionContext

the SearchExpressionContext

expression:String

the expression

Returns:boolean

If the given expression is a passtrough expression

isValidExpressionback to summary
public boolean isValidExpression(SearchExpressionContext searchExpressionContext, String expression)

Implements abstract javax.faces.component.search.SearchExpressionHandler.isValidExpression.

Doc from javax.faces.component.search.SearchExpressionHandler.isValidExpression.

Checks if the given expression is a valid expression.

A expression is invalid if:
  • No SearchKeywordResolver matches the requested keyword
  • A keyword or id is placed after a leaf keyword (@none:@form)
Parameters
searchExpressionContext:SearchExpressionContext

the SearchExpressionContext

expression:String

the expression

Returns:boolean

If the given expression is a valid expression

Resolves to a single clientId or passthrough expression for the given expression.

the search expression

Returns:String

The resolved clientId or passtrough expression. If the expression can not be resolved and if SearchExpressionHint#IGNORE_NO_RESULT was passed, null will be returned.

Resolves to a List with clientIds or passthrough expressions for the given expressions. The expressions will be splitted by splitExpressions(javax.faces.context.FacesContext, java.lang.String) and resolved one by one.

Parameters
searchExpressionContext:SearchExpressionContext

the SearchExpressionContext

expressions:String

the search expressions

Returns:List<String>

The resolved clientIds and passtrough expressions.
