public interface DecoratorMapper

The DecoratorMapper is responsible for determining which Decorator should be used for a Page.

Implementations of this are returned by the Factory, and should be thread-safe.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Decorator	getDecorator(jakarta.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request, Page page)	Return appropriate Decorator for a certain Page.
Decorator	getNamedDecorator(jakarta.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request, String name)	Return a Decorator with given name.
void	init(Config config, Properties properties, DecoratorMapper parent)	Initialize the mapper.

Method Details

init

void init(Config config,
 Properties properties,
 DecoratorMapper parent)
   throws InstantiationException

Initialize the mapper. This is always called before the other methods.

Parameters:

config - Config supplied by Servlet or Filter.

properties - Any initialization properties (specific to implementation).

Throws:

InstantiationException - should be thrown if the implementation cannot be initialized properly.

getDecorator

Decorator getDecorator(jakarta.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
 Page page)

Return appropriate Decorator for a certain Page.

The implementation can determine the result based on the actual request or the data of the parsed page. Typically this would call getNamedDecorator() which would delegate to a parent DecoratorMapper.

getNamedDecorator

Decorator getNamedDecorator(jakarta.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
 String name)

Return a Decorator with given name.
