All Implemented Interfaces:

ActionSource, ApplicationContextAware, ServletContextAware, Controller

public class SimpleActionController
extends AbstractFacesController
implements ActionSource

This Controller implements an ActionSource and fullfills completely the contract of an ActionSource. So this Controller can be used like a UICommand which will be fully configured and mapped in the FacesDispatcherServlet's application context.

For more information please have a look at the UICommand and ActionSource documentations.

Method Detail

handleRequestInternal

protected final ModelAndView handleRequestInternal(FacesContext context,
                                                   javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                                                   javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response)

Template method. Subclasses must implement this. The contract is the same as for handleRequest.

Specified by:

handleRequestInternal in class AbstractFacesController

Parameters:

context - FacesContext for the current request

request - current HTTP request

response - current HTTP response

Returns:

a ModelAndView to render, or null if handled directly

See Also:

AbstractController.handleRequest(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse)

processAction

protected void processAction(FacesContext context,
                             javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
                             javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
                             ActionEvent event)

Process the request. This method will be invoked after the ActionListeners (added by setActionListeners(List)) are notified and before the Action and ActionListener MethodBindings of this ActionSource will be processed. May be overriden in subclasses.

Parameters:

context - FacesContext for the current request

request - current HTTP request

response - current HTTP response

event - current ActionEvent

setActionSource

public final void setActionSource(ActionSource actionSource)

Sets the ActionSource implementation this controller should use as delegate. Default ActionSource is a UICommand instance.

Parameters:

actionSource - the ActionSource to use for internal purposes.

addActionListener

public final void addActionListener(ActionListener listener)

Specified by:

addActionListener in interface ActionSource

getAction

public final MethodBinding getAction()

Specified by:

getAction in interface ActionSource

getActionListener

public final MethodBinding getActionListener()

Specified by:

getActionListener in interface ActionSource

getActionListeners

public final ActionListener[] getActionListeners()

Specified by:

getActionListeners in interface ActionSource

isImmediate

public final boolean isImmediate()

Specified by:

isImmediate in interface ActionSource

removeActionListener

public final void removeActionListener(ActionListener listener)

Specified by:

removeActionListener in interface ActionSource

setAction

public final void setAction(MethodBinding action)

Specified by:

setAction in interface ActionSource

setActionListener

public final void setActionListener(MethodBinding actionListener)

Specified by:

setActionListener in interface ActionSource

setImmediate

public final void setImmediate(boolean immediate)

Specified by:

setImmediate in interface ActionSource

setActionListeners

public final void setActionListeners(java.util.List actionListeners)

Sets the list of new ActionListeners interested in being notified when ActionEvents occur.

Parameters:

actionListeners - the ActionListener instance to use
