All Implemented Interfaces:
BodyTag, IterationTag, JspIdConsumer, JspTag, Tag
Direct Known Subclasses:
UIComponentBodyTag

Deprecated. Use of this class has been replaced with UIComponentELTag, which extends UIComponentClassicTagBase to add properties that use the EL API introduced as part of JSP 2.1.

public abstract class UIComponentTag
extends UIComponentClassicTagBase
implements Tag

UIComponentTag is the base class for all JSP custom actions that correspond to user interface components in a page that is rendered by JavaServer Faces.

In this version of the specification, UIComponentTag extends UIComponentClassicTagBase to add properties that use the Faces 1.1 Expression Language.

Constructor Detail

UIComponentTag

public UIComponentTag()
Deprecated. 
Method Detail

setBinding

public void setBinding(java.lang.String binding)
                throws JspException
Deprecated. 

Set the value binding expression for our component.

Parameters:
binding - The new value binding expression
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the specified binding is not a valid value binding expression.
JspException

hasBinding

protected boolean hasBinding()
Deprecated. 
Description copied from class: UIComponentClassicTagBase

Return true if this component has a non-null binding attribute. This method is necessary to allow subclasses that expose the binding property as an Faces 1.1 style EL property as well as subclasses that expose it as an EL API property.

Specified by:
hasBinding in class UIComponentClassicTagBase

setRendered

public void setRendered(java.lang.String rendered)
Deprecated. 

Set an override for the rendered attribute.

Parameters:
rendered - The new value for rendered attribute

isSuppressed

protected boolean isSuppressed()
Deprecated. 

isValueReference

public static boolean isValueReference(java.lang.String value)
Deprecated. 

Return true if the specified value conforms to the syntax requirements of a value binding expression. Such expressions ` * may be used on most component tag attributes to signal a desire for deferred evaluation of the attribute or property value to be set on the underlying UIComponent.

Parameters:
value - The value to evaluate
Throws:
java.lang.NullPointerException - if value is null

release

public void release()
Deprecated. 

Release any resources allocated during the execution of this tag handler.

Specified by:
release in interface Tag
Overrides:
release in class UIComponentClassicTagBase

setProperties

protected void setProperties(UIComponent component)
Deprecated. 
Description copied from class: UIComponentClassicTagBase

Override properties and attributes of the specified component, if the corresponding properties of this tag handler instance were explicitly set. This method must be called ONLY if the specified UIComponent was in fact created during the execution of this tag handler instance, and this call will occur BEFORE the UIComponent is added to the view.

Tag subclasses that want to support additional set properties must ensure that the base class setProperties() method is still called. A typical implementation that supports extra properties foo and bar would look something like this:

 protected void setProperties(UIComponent component) {
   super.setProperties(component);
   if (foo != null) {
     component.setAttribute("foo", foo);
   }
   if (bar != null) {
     component.setAttribute("bar", bar);
   }
 }
 

The default implementation overrides the following properties:

Specified by:
setProperties in class UIComponentClassicTagBase
Parameters:
component - UIComponent whose properties are to be overridden

createComponent

protected UIComponent createComponent(FacesContext context,
                                      java.lang.String newId)
Deprecated. 

Implement createComponent using Faces 1.1 EL API.

Specified by:
createComponent in class UIComponentClassicTagBase
Parameters:
context - FacesContext for the current request
newId - id of the component

getParentUIComponentTag

public static UIComponentTag getParentUIComponentTag(PageContext context)
Deprecated. 

Locate and return the nearest enclosing UIComponentTag if any; otherwise, return null.

Parameters:
context - PageContext for the current page
