java.lang.Object
  extended by java.util.EventObject
      extended by javax.faces.event.SystemEvent

All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable

public class PreRenderViewEvent
extends ComponentSystemEvent

When an instance of this event is passed to SystemEventListener#processEvent or ComponentSystemEventListener#processEvent, the listener implementation may assume that the source of this event instance is the UIViewRoot instance that is about to be rendered.

It is valid for a listener for this event to change the UIViewRoot in the current FacesContext, but the listener must ensure that the new UIViewRoot was created with a call to ViewHandler.createView(javax.faces.context.FacesContext, java.lang.String), and that the view is fully populated with the children to be traversed during render. The listener implementation may call ViewDeclarationLanguage.buildView(javax.faces.context.FacesContext, javax.faces.component.UIViewRoot) to populate the UIViewRoot.
