PageCallback (Tapestry API - 5.8.6)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.tapestry5.PageCallback

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable
```
@ImmutableSessionPersistedObject
public class PageCallback
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable
```
A way of capturing the name of a page and the page activation context so that, at a future date, the page can be invoked with that data. This kind of callback is very useful when creating more complicated workflows, where access to a page is "interrupted" with some operation before returning (via a callback) to the original flow. Since the callback is serializable, it can be stored in the session.

Since:

5.2.0

  - toLink
```
public Link toLink(PageRenderLinkSource linkSource)
```
    Converts the callback (the page name and activation context) to a link; such a link may be returned from a event handler method to cause Tapestry to redirect to the page. Most of the details are encapsulated inside the PageRenderLinkSource service.
    
    Parameters:
    
    linkSource - used to generate the link
    
    Returns:
    
    link corresponding to this callback
