public class HtmlOutputFormat
extends UIOutput

Represents a component that looks up a localized message in a resource bundle, optionally uses it as a MessageFormat pattern string and substitutes in parameter values from nested UIParameter components, and renders the result. If the "dir" or "lang" attributes are present, render a span element and pass them through as attributes on the span.

By default, the rendererType property must be set to "javax.faces.Format". This value can be changed by calling the setRendererType() method.

HtmlOutputFormat

public HtmlOutputFormat()
Method Detail

getDir

public String getDir()

Return the value of the dir property.

Contents: Direction indication for text that does not inherit directionality. Valid values are "LTR" (left-to-right) and "RTL" (right-to-left).


setDir

public void setDir(String dir)

Set the value of the dir property.


isEscape

public boolean isEscape()

Return the value of the escape property.

Contents: Flag indicating that characters that are sensitive in HTML and XML markup must be escaped. This flag is set to "true" by default.


setEscape

public void setEscape(boolean escape)

Set the value of the escape property.


getLang

public String getLang()

Return the value of the lang property.

Contents: Code describing the language used in the generated markup for this component.


setLang

public void setLang(String lang)

Set the value of the lang property.


getStyle

public String getStyle()

Return the value of the style property.

Contents: CSS style(s) to be applied when this component is rendered.


setStyle

public void setStyle(String style)

Set the value of the style property.


getStyleClass

public String getStyleClass()

Return the value of the styleClass property.

Contents: Space-separated list of CSS style class(es) to be applied when this element is rendered. This value must be passed through as the "class" attribute on generated markup.


setStyleClass

public void setStyleClass(String styleClass)

Set the value of the styleClass property.


getTitle

public String getTitle()

Return the value of the title property.

Contents: Advisory title information about markup elements generated for this component.


setTitle

public void setTitle(String title)

Set the value of the title property.


saveState

public Object saveState(FacesContext _context)
Description copied from interface: 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(javax.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 StateHolder
Overrides:
saveState in class UIOutput

restoreState

public void restoreState(FacesContext _context,
                         Object _state)
Description copied from interface: 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(javax.faces.context.FacesContext, java.lang.Object) method on all those instances as well.

Specified by:
restoreState in interface StateHolder
Overrides:
restoreState in class UIOutput
