| 22 | * An implementation of IRender that renders a Block component. | |
| 23 | * | |
| 24 | * <p>The BlockRenderer allows the contents of a {@link Block} to be rendered | |
| 25 | * via {@link IRender}. It can be used in cases when an {@link IRender} object is | |
| 26 | * required as an argument or a binding to render a part of a Component. | |
| 27 | * To provide a complicated view, it could be defined in a {@link Block} and then | |
| 28 | * returned encapsulated in a BlockRenderer. | |
| 29 | * | |
| 30 | * <p>It is important to note that a special care has to be taken if | |
| 31 | * the BlockRenderer is used within an inner class of a component or a page. | |
| 32 | * In such a case the instance of the component that created the inner class | |
| 33 | * may not be the currently active instance in the RequestCycle when the | |
| 34 | * BlockRenderer is required. Thus, calling getComponent("blockName") to get the | |
| 35 | * block component may return a Block component that is not initialized for this | |
| 36 | * RequestCycle. | |
| 37 | * | |
| 38 | * <p>To avoid similar problems, the ComponentAddress class could be used in | |
| 39 | * conjunction with BlockRenderer. | |
| 40 | * Here is a quick example of how BlockRenderer could be used with ComponentAddress: | |
| 41 | * <p> | |
| 42 | * <code> | |
| 43 | * <br>// Create a component address for the current component | |
| 44 | * <br>final ComponentAddress address = new ComponentAddress(this); | |
| 45 | * <br>return new SomeClass() { | |
| 46 | * <br> IRender getRenderer(IRequestCycle cycle) { | |
| 47 | * <br> MyComponent component = (MyComponent) address.findComponent(cycle); | |
| 48 | * <br> // initialize variables in the component that will be used by the block here | |
| 49 | * <br> return new BlockRenderer(component.getComponent("block")); | |
| 50 | * <br> } | |
| 51 | * <br>} | |
| 52 | * </code> | |
