Method Detail

getFields

public final Map<String,Base> getFields()

Provides an unmodifiable map interface to access the fields by language code (String accessor). This allows easier use in things like JSP or mapping files:

• myobject.fields[nl].text (JSTL/JSP)
• myobject.fields.nl.text (MyBatis/OGNL implementations)

Returns:

All fields in a map of language code/fields implementation.

setFieldsAsCollection

public final void setFieldsAsCollection(Collection<Base> allFields)

Sets all fields of the entity in one go, passing them as a collection.

Parameters:

allFields - Collection containing the LocalizedFields implementations.

getFieldsAsCollection

public final Collection<Base> getFieldsAsCollection()

Provides a collection interface to all fields. Fields can be iterated or added through the collection interface.

Returns:

All fields as a collection that can be modified or iterated over.

getFieldsForLanguage

public final Base getFieldsForLanguage(Language language)

Method to fetch fields for a given language. NOTE: If no fields for that language have been found, they will be created.

Parameters:

language - Language for which to fetch the fields.

Returns:

LocalizedFields for the specified language.

addFields

public final void addFields(Base fields)

Adds LocalizedFields to this entity. The language must be set on the LocalizedFields instance. If there are already LocalizedFields linked to the same language, they will be replaced by the new instance.

Parameters:

fields - Specific LocalizedFields implementation.

removeFields

public final void removeFields(Language language)

Removes the LocalizedFields for the specific language.

Parameters:

language - Language for which to remove the fields.

createFields

public abstract Base createFields(Language language)

Creates new LocalizedFields of the required specific implementation. This does not add the fields to the collection for this entity.

Parameters:

language - Language for which to create fields.

Returns:

Specific LocalizedFields implementation.
