Method Detail

preparePage

Resolution preparePage()

A lifecycle method invoked during the dispatch phase, where a http request is translated to a dispatch (a path in the page tree) ultimately leading to an action invocation. This method is invoked after the PageInstance has been injected by the framework.
Also, this method is invoked on this object after it has been invoked on the PageAction corresponding to the parent page, if any.

Returns:

either null, meaning that the dispatch process is to go forward regularly, or a Resolution to be executed, interrupting normal action invocation.

getContext

ElementsActionBeanContext getContext()

Specified by:

getContext in interface ActionBean

getParent

PageAction getParent()

initEmbeddedPageActions

org.apache.commons.collections.MultiMap initEmbeddedPageActions()

Lifecycle method called by templates that can include embedded pages to compute the set of pages to embed and their locations and order.

Returns:

a multi-valued map layout-container: String -> embedded-pages: list(EmbeddedPageAction)

getReturnUrl

String getReturnUrl()

This is the URL (typically relative to the application, i.e. without scheme, host, and port components) where the action should redirect to after handling an event.

Returns:

the return URL.

getPageTemplate

String getPageTemplate()
