      • addParameter

        void addParameter​(java.lang.String name,
                          boolean required,
                          boolean allowNull,
                          java.lang.String defaultBindingPrefix)
        Adds a new formal parameter to the model. Each parameter has a unique name (though access to parameters is case insensitive).
        Parameters:
        name - new, unique name for the parameter
        required - if true, the parameter must be bound
        allowNull - if true, then parameter may be bound to null, if false a null check will be added
        defaultBindingPrefix - the default binding prefix for this parameter @throws IllegalArgumentException if a parameter with the given name has already been defined for this model

      • addParameter

        void addParameter​(java.lang.String name,
                          boolean required,
                          boolean allowNull,
                          java.lang.String defaultBindingPrefix,
                          boolean cached)
        Adds a new formal parameter to the model. Each parameter has a unique name (though access to parameters is case insensitive).
        Parameters:
        name - new, unique name for the parameter
        required - if true, the parameter must be bound
        allowNull - if true, then parameter may be bound to null, if false a null check will be added
        defaultBindingPrefix - the default binding prefix for this parameter @throws IllegalArgumentException if a parameter with the given name has already been defined for this model
        cached - if true, the parameter value should be cached within the component during rendering

      • addEmbeddedComponent

        MutableEmbeddedComponentModel addEmbeddedComponent​(java.lang.String id,
                                                           java.lang.String type,
                                                           java.lang.String componentClassName,
                                                           boolean inheritInformalParameters,
                                                           Location location)
        Defines a new embedded component.
        Parameters:
        id - the unique id for the embedded component, which must not already exist.
        type - the type of the component (posslibly blank)
        componentClassName - the fully qualified class name (derived from the field), used if the type is blank
        inheritInformalParameters - if true, then the component will inherit informal parameters provided to its container
        location - where the component is defined @return a mutable model allowing parameters to be set
      • setFieldPersistenceStrategy

        java.lang.String setFieldPersistenceStrategy​(java.lang.String fieldName,
                                                     java.lang.String strategy)
        Used to define the field persistence strategy for a particular field name. Returns a logical name for the field, which is guaranteed to be unique (this is necessary for handling the case where a subclass has a persistent field with the same name as a persistent field from a super-class).
        Parameters:
        fieldName - the name of the field which is to be made persistent
        strategy - the strategy for persisting the field, from Persist.value(). This value may be blank, in which case the stategy is inherited from the component, or the component's container.
        Returns:
        a logical name for the field, to be used with ComponentModel.getFieldPersistenceStrategy(String), and with InternalComponentResources.persistFieldChange(String, Object), etc.
      • addMixinClassName

        void addMixinClassName​(java.lang.String mixinClassName,
                               java.lang.String... order)
        Adds a mixin to the component's implementation, optionally specifying ordering constraints, as per OrderedConfiguration.
        Since:
        5.2.0.0
      • enableSupportsInformalParameters

        void enableSupportsInformalParameters()
        Sets the internal flag to indicate that this model (and all models that extend from it) support informal parameters.
      • setMixinAfter

        void setMixinAfter​(boolean mixinAfter)
        Changes the value of the mixinAfter flag. The default value is false.
      • setMeta

        void setMeta​(java.lang.String key,
                     java.lang.String value)
        Stores a meta data value under the indicated key.
      • addRenderPhase

        void addRenderPhase​(java.lang.Class renderPhase)
        Identifies that the component does handle the render phase.
        Parameters:
        renderPhase - annotation class corresponding to the render phase
        Since:
        5.0.19, 5.1.0.0

        ComponentModel.getHandledRenderPhases()
      • addEventHandler

        void addEventHandler​(java.lang.String eventType)
        Identifies that the component includes an event handler for the indicated event type.
        Parameters:
        eventType - of handled event
