    • Constructor Detail

      • UIAbstractListChoice

        public UIAbstractListChoice()
        Creates the component without a name. The name must be set in all cases using the setPropertyAtom call.

      • UIAbstractListChoice

        public UIAbstractListChoice​(Atom propertyAtom)
        Creates the component with the specified name. All system-reserved names for components begins with "$".
        Parameters:
        propertyAtom - the name of the component, unique within it's parent.

    • Method Detail

      • clone

        public UIAbstractListChoice clone()
        Creates a clone out of this property. The cloning is overridden by the subclasses in order to handle cloning of its class variables appropriately.

        Cloning is used for "virtualization" of a property tree in the server. Client property classes will therefore throw CloneNotSupportedException.

        Once a tree has been cloned, the change-flag is reset, and the create-flag is set. All listeners are also removed! The new cloned property is an orphan, i.e. has no parent set. All children properties are also (deep) cloned.

        Note that the cloning process is done WITHOUT thread synchronization for performance reasons, thus no modifications should be done to the tree!

        Overrides:
        clone in class UIComp

      • isHTMLKStringSupported

        public boolean isHTMLKStringSupported()
        Checks if KString's of HTML type are supported.
        Specified by:
        isHTMLKStringSupported in interface IKStringArrayContainer
        Returns:
        true for HTML support, false if it must be plain KString's.

      • getSelectionPropAtom

        public Atom getSelectionPropAtom()
        Returns the selection property atom for verification of selection changes.

        This method is used by the framework in UIComp to fire selection events when the property value changes.

        Specified by:
        getSelectionPropAtom in interface IUISelectionComp
        Returns:
        The atom of the selection property.

      • getDeviceType

        public final int getDeviceType()
        Gets the device type: -1=mobile, 0=both, 1=desktop.
        Specified by:
        getDeviceType in interface IUIComp

      • isMobileContextMenuSupported

        public boolean isMobileContextMenuSupported()
        Returns if the component can show the context menu in mobile mode.
        Specified by:
        isMobileContextMenuSupported in interface IUIContextMenuOwner
        Returns:
        Combobox component supports context menus for mobile.

      • shouldCreateProps

        protected boolean shouldCreateProps​(org.w3c.dom.Element element)
        Checks if a child Element should be created as properties or if it should be skipped. Override this method (and call super.shouldCreateProps(element)) if the container creates other child elements.
        Overrides:
        shouldCreateProps in class PropCnr
        Parameters:
        element - The element in question.
        Returns:
        true to create properties out of it, false to ignore the element.

      • addPredefinedProps

        protected void addPredefinedProps()
                           throws PropException
        Adds the predefined properties for this container. This method is called once just after construction of the property container and sometimes population of it.

        The method should add properties to create or get reference to using the maybeAddProp method. When the PropCnr instance is cloned, the method getPredefinedProps() is called in order for the subclass to be able to retrieve the new instances to these properties, if stored in instance variables.

        Overrides:
        addPredefinedProps in class PropCnr
        Throws:
        PropException - for property exceptions.

      • getPredefinedProps

        public void getPredefinedProps()
        Gets potential references to predefined properties for this container. This method is called once just after cloning of the property container.

        The method should get reference to using the getProp(...) methods. This allows the subclass to be able to retrieve the new instances to the properties created during addPredefinedProps() if stored in instance variables.

        Subclasses must override this method to do the appropriate initialization, as this method does nothing for the PropCnr class implementation.

        Overrides:
        getPredefinedProps in class UIComp

      • onSelectionChanged

        protected void onSelectionChanged​(GEvent event)

        Overrides:
        setComponentToVSField in class UIComp
        Returns:
        1 for update completed, 0 for nothing done and -1 for error occurred.

        public void onValueChanged​(VSField field,
                           Value value,

                           IPostEventProcessing postProcessing)
        Called when the field value is set.

        Components must override to provide the implementation when they are not implementing IPlainTextComponent, in this case the default implementation transports the field string value to this text components plain text.

        Specified by:
        onValueChanged in interface IVSFieldListener
        Overrides:
        onValueChanged in class UIComp

        Specified by:
        isSelected in interface IUISelectionComp
        Returns:
        true if the component is selected, false otherwise.
