org.dspace.app.util.SubmissionStepConfig

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class SubmissionStepConfig
extends Object
implements Serializable

Class representing configuration for a single step within an Item Submission Process. In other words, this is a single step in the SubmissionConfig class. This class represents the structure of a single 'step' node in the item-submission.xml configuration file. Note: Implements Serializable as it will be saved to the current session during submission. Please ensure that nothing is added to this class that isn't also serializable

Constructor Detail

SubmissionStepConfig

public SubmissionStepConfig()

Class constructor for creating an empty SubmissionStepConfig object

SubmissionStepConfig

public SubmissionStepConfig(Map<String,String> stepMap)

Class constructor for creating a SubmissionStepConfig object based on the contents of a HashMap initialized by the SubmissionConfig object.

Parameters:

stepMap - the HashMap containing all required information about this step

Method Detail

getId

public String getId()

Get the ID for this step. An ID is only defined if the step exists in the <step-definitions> section. This ID field is used to reference special steps (like the required step with id="collection")

Returns:

the step ID

getHeading

public String getHeading()

Get the heading for this step. This can either be a property from Messages.properties, or the actual heading text. If this "heading" contains a period(.) it is assumed to reference Messages.properties.

Returns:

the heading

getProcessingClassName

public String getProcessingClassName()

Get the class which handles all processing for this step.

This class must extend the org.dspace.submit.AbstractProcessingStep class, and provide processing for BOTH the JSP-UI and XML-UI

Returns:

the class's full class path (e.g. "org.dspace.submit.step.MySampleStep")

getType

public String getType()

Retrieve the name of the component used by this step in the UI

Returns:

the name of the UI component to use for this step

getScope

public String getScope()

Returns:

the scope restriction for this step

getVisibility

public String getVisibility()

getVisibilityOutside

public String getVisibilityOutside()

getStepNumber

public int getStepNumber()

Get the number of this step in the current Submission process config. Step numbers start with #0 (although step #0 is ALWAYS the special "select collection" step)

Returns:

the number of this step in the current SubmissionConfig

setStepNumber

protected void setStepNumber(int stepNum)

Sets the number of this step in the current Submission process config. Step numbers start with #0 (although step #0 is ALWAYS the special "select collection" step)

Parameters:

stepNum - the step number.

isVisible

public boolean isVisible()

Whether or not this step is visible within the Progress Bar. A step is only visible if it has been assigned a Heading, otherwise it's invisible

Returns:

if step is visible within the progress bar
