Package javax. faces. view. facelets
This package contains public classes for the Java code API of Facelets.
See: Description
-
Interface Summary Interface Description AttributeHandler An interface that allows other code to identify FaceletHandlers that correspond to component attributes.
BehaviorConfig Convey the id of a behavior declared in a view.
ComponentConfig Passed to the constructor of
ComponentHandler.ConverterConfig A Facelet version of the JSP
ConverterTag.FaceletCache.MemberFactory<V> Factory interface for creating Facelet or View Metadata Facelet instances.
FaceletHandler This is the root class for markup elements in Facelets VDL.
FacetHandler An interface that allows other code to identify FaceletHandlers that correspond to component facets.
TagConfig Passed to the constructor of
TagHandlersubclass, it defines the document definition of the handler we are instantiating.TagDecorator Provides the ability to completely change the Tag before it's processed for compiling with the associatedTagHandler.TextHandler An interface that allows other code to identify FaceletHandlers that may provide text (String) content.
ValidatorConfig Used in creating
ValidatorHandlerand all implementations. -
Class Summary Class Description BehaviorHandler The
FaceletHandlerthat corresponds to attached objects that represent an instance ofClientBehaviorthat must be added to the parent component, which must implementClientBehaviorHolder, with a call toClientBehaviorHolder.addClientBehavior(java.lang.String, javax.faces.component.behavior.ClientBehavior).ComponentHandler Public base class for markup element instances that map to
UIComponentinstances in the view.CompositeFaceletHandler A FaceletHandler that is derived of 1 or more, inner FaceletHandlers.
ConverterHandler Handles setting a
Converterinstance on aValueHolderparent.DelegatingMetaTagHandler Enable the JSF implementation to provide the appropriate behavior for the kind of
MetaTagHandlersubclass for each kind of element in the view, while providing a base-class from which those wanting to make a Java language custom tag handler can inherit.Facelet The parent or root object in a FaceletHandler composition.FaceletCache<V> This API defines the facility by which the Facelets
ViewDeclarationLanguagecreates and caches instances of Facelets.FaceletCacheFactory Allows customization of the implementation of
FaceletCache.FaceletContext Context representative of a single request from a Facelet.
FaceletsAttachedObjectHandler Root class for all tag handlers that represent attached objetcts in a Facelets page.
Metadata There are concrete subclasses within the implementation that map concepts in the Facelet VDL page to JSF Java API calls the appropriate instances.
MetadataTarget MetaRule The root class of the abstraction that dictates how attributes on a markup element in a Facelets VDL page are wired to the JSF API object instance associated with that element.
MetaRuleset A mutable set of rules to be used in auto-wiring state to a particular object instance.
MetaTagHandler Every kind of markup element in Facelets VDL that has attributes that need to take action on a JSF Java API artifact is associated with an instance of this class.
ResourceResolver Deprecated Tag The runtime must create an instance of this class for each element in the Facelets XHTML view.
TagAttribute Representation of an XML attribute name=value pair on an XML element in a Facelet file.
TagAttributes A set of TagAttributes, usually representing all attributes on a Tag.
TagHandler Foundation class for
FaceletHandlers associated with a markup element in a Facelet document.TagHandlerDelegate Abstract class that defines methods relating to helping tag handler instances.
TagHandlerDelegateFactory Abstract factory for creating instances of
TagHandlerDelegate.ValidatorHandler Handles setting a
Validatorinstance on anEditableValueHolderparent. -
Exception Summary Exception Description FaceletException An Exception from the Facelet implementation
TagAttributeException An Exception caused by a
TagAttributeTagException An Exception caused by a
Tag -
Annotation Types Summary Annotation Type Description FaceletsResourceResolver The presence of this annotation on a class automatically registers the class with the runtime as a
ResourceResolver.
Package javax.faces.view.facelets Description
This package contains public classes for
the Java code API of Facelets. The vast majority of Facelets users have
no need to access the Java API and can get all their work done using the
tag-level API. These classes are provided for users that have a need
for a Java API that allows participation in the execution of a Facelets
View, which happens as a result of the runtime calling ViewDeclarationLanguage.buildView().
The most common usecase for participating in the execution of a
Facelets View is to provide a custom tag handler in those cases when the
non-Java API methods for doing so is not sufficient. In such cases,
Java classes may extend from ComponentHandler, BehaviorHandler, ConverterHandler, or ValidatorHandler depending upon
the kind of JSF Java API artifact they want to represent in the Facelets
VDL page.
