Interface ClientBehavior

Method Detail

• getScript

  String getScript(ClientBehaviorContext behaviorContext)

  Return the script that implements this ClientBehavior's client-side logic.

  ClientBehavior.getScript() implementations are allowed to return null to indicate that no script is required for this particular getScript() call. For example, a ClientBehavior implementation may return null if the Behavior is disabled.

  Parameters:

  behaviorContext - the ClientBehaviorContext that provides properties that might influence this getScript() call. Note that ClientBehaviorContext instances are short-lived objects that are only valid for the duration of the call to getScript(). ClientBehavior implementations must not hold onto references to ClientBehaviorContexts.

  Returns:

  script that provides the client-side behavior, or null if no script is required.

  Throws:

  NullPointerException - if behaviorContext is null

• decode

  void decode(FacesContext context,
              UIComponent component)

  Decode any new state of this ClientBehavior from the request contained in the specified FacesContext.

  During decoding, events may be enqueued for later processing (by event listeners who have registered an interest), by calling queueEvent(). Default implementation delegates decoding to ClientBehaviorRenderer.decode(FacesContext, UIComponent, ClientBehavior)

  Parameters:

  context - FacesContext for the request we are processing

  component - UIComponent the component associated with this Behavior

  Throws:

  NullPointerException - if context or component is null.
