Constructor Detail

Composite

protected Composite(WingContext context,
                    String name,
                    String rend)
             throws WingException

Construct a new field.

Parameters:

context - (Required) The context this element is contained in, such as where to route SAX events and what i18n catalogue to use.

name - (Required) a non-unique local identifier used to differentiate the element from its siblings within an interactive division. This is the name of the field use when data is submitted back to the server.

rend - (May be null) a rendering hint used to override the default display of the element.

Throws:

WingException

Method Detail

enableAddOperation

public void enableAddOperation()
                        throws WingException

Enable the add operation for this field. When this is enabled the front end will add a button to add more items to the field.

Throws:

WingException

enableDeleteOperation

public void enableDeleteOperation()
                           throws WingException

Enable the delete operation for this field. When this is enabled then the front end will provide a way for the user to select fields (probably checkboxes) along with a submit button to delete the selected fields.

Throws:

WingException

addCheckBox

public CheckBox addCheckBox(String name,
                            String rend)
                     throws WingException

Add a boolean input control which may be toggled by the user. A checkbox may have several fields which share the same name and each of those fields may be toggled independently. This is distinct from a radio button where only one field may be toggled.

Parameters:

name - (Required) a non-unique local identifier used to differentiate the element from its siblings within an interactive division. This is the name of the field use when data is submitted back to the server.

rend - (May be null) a rendering hint used to override the default display of the element.

Returns:

a new checkbox field

Throws:

WingException

addCheckBox

public CheckBox addCheckBox(String name)
                     throws WingException

Add a boolean input control which may be toggled by the user. A checkbox may have several fields which share the same name and each of those fields may be toggled independently. This is distinct from a radio button where only one field may be toggled.

Parameters:

name - (Required) a non-unique local identifier used to differentiate the element from its siblings within an interactive division. This is the name of the field use when data is submitted back to the server.

Returns:

A new checkbox field

Throws:

WingException

addRadio

public Radio addRadio(String name,
                      String rend)
               throws WingException

Add a boolean input control which may be toggled by the user. Multiple radio button fields may share the same name. When this occurs only one field may be selected to be true. This is distinct from a checkbox where multiple fields may be toggled.

Parameters:

name - (Required) a non-unique local identifier used to differentiate the element from its siblings within an interactive division. This is the name of the field use when data is submitted back to the server.

rend - (May be null) a rendering hint used to override the default display of the element.

Returns:

a new radio field.

Throws:

WingException

addRadio

public Radio addRadio(String name)
               throws WingException

Add a boolean input control which may be toggled by the user. Multiple radio button fields may share the same name. When this occurs only one field may be selected to be true. This is distinct from a checkbox where multiple fields may be toggled.

Parameters:

name - (Required) a non-unique local identifier used to differentiate the element from its siblings within an interactive division. This is the name of the field use when data is submitted back to the server.

Returns:

a new radio field

Throws:

WingException
