Constructor Summary

AbstractCompositeFeature()

Method Summary

protected abstract void	activate() Called when the dialog is activated.
protected abstract void	childActivated(java.lang.String localName, SubDialogControl subDialogControl)
protected abstract void	childAdded(java.lang.String localName, SubDialogControl subDialogControl)
protected abstract void	childDeactivated(java.lang.String localName, SubDialogControl subDialogControl)
protected abstract void	childRemoved(java.lang.String localName, SubDialogControl subDialogControl)
void	collectSystemInfo(SystemInfoNode root, SystemInfoOptions options) Builds the system information tree upon local information of the implementor. The system information tree can be used within development by inspecting the system; so implementors should append their internal state (depending on the details settings within SystemInfoOptions). The information can be appended to the tree by adding new child SystemInformationNodes to the root node given using the SystemInfoNode.createChild(String) method and by setting information attributes the these nodes or the given root node. Subclasses should overwrite this method to append system informations Subclasses should overwrite this method to append system informations
protected abstract void	deactivate() Called when the dialog is deactivated.
protected ActivationController	getActivationControllerInt() Returns the current ActivationController set (may be null if not set).
protected abstract void	prepare() Called when the dialog is prepared.
protected abstract void	release() Called when the dialog is released.
protected ActivationController	requireActivationController() Return the current ActivationController.
protected void	setActivationControllerInt(ActivationController controller) Sets the current ActivationController.

Method Detail

requireActivationController

protected ActivationController requireActivationController()

Return the current ActivationController. If no ActivationController was set, an IllegalStateException will be thrown.

getActivationControllerInt

protected ActivationController getActivationControllerInt()

Returns the current ActivationController set (may be null if not set).

setActivationControllerInt

protected void setActivationControllerInt(ActivationController controller)

Sets the current ActivationController. This method connects this AbstractCompositeFeature to the given ActivationController

Parameters:

controller - the ActivationController to set

childActivated

protected abstract void childActivated(java.lang.String localName,
                                       SubDialogControl subDialogControl)

See Also:

ActivationControllerListener.childActivated(java.lang.String, com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.SubDialogControl)

childAdded

protected abstract void childAdded(java.lang.String localName,
                                   SubDialogControl subDialogControl)

See Also:

ActivationControllerListener.childAdded(java.lang.String, com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.SubDialogControl)

childDeactivated

protected abstract void childDeactivated(java.lang.String localName,
                                         SubDialogControl subDialogControl)

See Also:

ActivationControllerListener.childDeactivated(java.lang.String, com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.SubDialogControl)

childRemoved

protected abstract void childRemoved(java.lang.String localName,
                                     SubDialogControl subDialogControl)

See Also:

ActivationControllerListener.childRemoved(java.lang.String, com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.SubDialogControl)

prepare

protected abstract void prepare()

Description copied from class: AbstractFeature

Called when the dialog is prepared. Override this method if you want to perform some action on LifeCycle.prepare(), e.g. gain resource and provide services for childs.

The default implementation in AbstractFeature does nothing.

Overrides:

prepare in class AbstractFeature

See Also:

com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.features.AbstractFeature#prepare()

activate

protected abstract void activate()

Description copied from class: AbstractFeature

Called when the dialog is activated. Override this method if you want to perform some action on LifeCycle.activate().

The default implementation in AbstractFeature does nothing.

Overrides:

activate in class AbstractFeature

See Also:

com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.features.AbstractFeature#activate()

deactivate

protected abstract void deactivate()

Description copied from class: AbstractFeature

Called when the dialog is deactivated. Override this method if you want to perform some action on LifeCycle.deactivate()().

The default implementation in AbstractFeature does nothing.

Overrides:

deactivate in class AbstractFeature

See Also:

com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.features.AbstractFeature#deactivate()

release

protected abstract void release()

Description copied from class: AbstractFeature

Called when the dialog is released. Override this method if you want to perform some action on LifeCycle.release()(), e.g. unregister services.

The default implementation in AbstractFeature does nothing.

Overrides:

release in class AbstractFeature

See Also:

com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.features.AbstractFeature#release()

collectSystemInfo

public void collectSystemInfo(SystemInfoNode root,
                              SystemInfoOptions options)

Description copied from class: AbstractFeature

Builds the system information tree upon local information of the implementor. The system information tree can be used within development by inspecting the system; so implementors should append their internal state (depending on the details settings within SystemInfoOptions). The information can be appended to the tree by adding new child SystemInformationNodes to the root node given using the SystemInfoNode.createChild(String) method and by setting information attributes the these nodes or the given root node. Subclasses should overwrite this method to append system informations

Specified by:

collectSystemInfo in interface SystemInfoProvider

Overrides:

collectSystemInfo in class AbstractFeature
