Constructor Detail

BindingValidator

public BindingValidator()

Only used during state restoration

BindingValidator

public BindingValidator(jakarta.el.ValueExpression validatorId,
                        jakarta.el.ValueExpression binding)

Method Detail

saveState

public Object saveState(jakarta.faces.context.FacesContext context)

Description copied from interface: jakarta.faces.component.StateHolder

Gets the state of the instance as a Serializable Object.

If the class that implements this interface has references to instances that implement StateHolder (such as a UIComponent with event handlers, validators, etc.) this method must call the StateHolder.saveState(jakarta.faces.context.FacesContext) method on all those instances as well. This method must not save the state of children and facets. That is done via the StateManager

This method must not alter the state of the implementing object. In other words, after executing this code:

 
 Object state = component.saveState(facesContext);
 
 

component should be the same as before executing it.

The return from this method must be Serializable

Specified by:

saveState in interface jakarta.faces.component.StateHolder

Parameters:

context - the Faces context.

Returns:

the saved state.

restoreState

public void restoreState(jakarta.faces.context.FacesContext context,
                         Object state)

Description copied from interface: jakarta.faces.component.StateHolder

Perform any processing required to restore the state from the entries in the state Object.

If the class that implements this interface has references to instances that also implement StateHolder (such as a UIComponent with event handlers, validators, etc.) this method must call the StateHolder.restoreState(jakarta.faces.context.FacesContext, java.lang.Object) method on all those instances as well.

If the state argument is null, take no action and return.

Specified by:

restoreState in interface jakarta.faces.component.StateHolder

Parameters:

context - the Faces context.

state - the state.

isTransient

public boolean isTransient()

Description copied from interface: jakarta.faces.component.StateHolder

If true, the Object implementing this interface must not participate in state saving or restoring.

Specified by:

isTransient in interface jakarta.faces.component.StateHolder

Returns:

true if transient, false otherwise.

setTransient

public void setTransient(boolean newTransientValue)

Description copied from interface: jakarta.faces.component.StateHolder

Denotes whether or not the Object implementing this interface must or must not participate in state saving or restoring.

Specified by:

setTransient in interface jakarta.faces.component.StateHolder

Parameters:

newTransientValue - boolean pass true if this Object will not participate in state saving or restoring, otherwise pass false.

validate

public void validate(jakarta.faces.context.FacesContext context,
                     jakarta.faces.component.UIComponent component,
                     Object value)
              throws jakarta.faces.validator.ValidatorException

Perform the correctness checks implemented by this Validator against the specified UIComponent. If any violations are found, a ValidatorException will be thrown containing the FacesMessage describing the failure.

Specified by:

validate in interface jakarta.faces.validator.Validator

Parameters:

context - FacesContext for the request we are processing

component - UIComponent we are checking for correctness

value - the value to validate

Throws:

jakarta.faces.validator.ValidatorException - if validation fails

NullPointerException - if context or component is null
