Method Detail

populateForm

protected void populateForm(Form form,
                            List<String> fields,
                            FormCreationData data)

Description copied from class: FilteredFormProcessor

This method generates all the fields to be added and adds them to the Form, together with the associated field data.

Overrides:

populateForm in class FilteredFormProcessor<ItemType,PersistType>

Parameters:

form - The Form to which the fields are added.

fields - The names of all the fields to be added.

data - FormCreationData used to generate all the fields.

internalPersist

protected PersistType internalPersist(ItemType item,
                                      FormData data)

Description copied from class: FilteredFormProcessor

Persists the form data.

Specified by:

internalPersist in class FilteredFormProcessor<ItemType,PersistType>

Parameters:

item - The object to persist the form for

data - The data to persist

Returns:

The object that got created or modified

generateDefaultFields

protected List<Field> generateDefaultFields(FormCreationData data,
                                            List<String> fieldsToIgnore)

Description copied from class: FilteredFormProcessor

Generates a list of default fields to add if no field names are specified.

Overrides:

generateDefaultFields in class ContentModelFormProcessor<ItemType,PersistType>

Parameters:

data - Used for field creation.

fieldsToIgnore - TODO

Returns:

a List of Fields which may be empty.

generateSelectedFields

protected List<Field> generateSelectedFields(List<String> fields,
                                             FormCreationData data)

Overrides:

generateSelectedFields in class FilteredFormProcessor<ItemType,PersistType>

setWorkflowService

public void setWorkflowService(WorkflowService workflowService)

Parameters:

workflowService - the workflowService to set

setBehaviourFilter

public void setBehaviourFilter(BehaviourFilter behaviourFilter)

Parameters:

behaviourFilter - the behaviourFilter to set

setExtendedPropertyFieldProcessor

public void setExtendedPropertyFieldProcessor(ExtendedPropertyFieldProcessor extendedPropertyFieldProcessor)

Parameters:

extendedPropertyFieldProcessor - the processor to set

getTypedItem

protected ItemType getTypedItem(Item item)

Description copied from class: FilteredFormProcessor

Returns a typed Object representing the given item.

Subclasses that represent a form type will return a typed object that is then passed to each of it's handlers, the handlers can therefore safely cast the Object to the type they expect.

Specified by:

getTypedItem in class FilteredFormProcessor<ItemType,PersistType>

Parameters:

item - The item to get a typed object for

Returns:

The typed object

getDefaultIgnoredFields

protected List<String> getDefaultIgnoredFields()

Description copied from class: FilteredFormProcessor

When a Form is generated with no field names specifically set then a default Form is created. The default Form contains all the properties and associations related to the Item, excluding a blacklist of ignored fields which defaults to the return value of this method. The default ignored values can be overridden by setting the property ignoredFields.

Overrides:

getDefaultIgnoredFields in class ContentModelFormProcessor<ItemType,PersistType>

Returns:

the names of all the fields to be excluded from the default Form if no defaultFields property is explicitly set.

makeFormPersister

protected abstract ContentModelFormPersister<PersistType> makeFormPersister(ItemType item)

Returns an implementation of ContentModelFormPersister which is used to accumulate all the changes specified in the Form and then persist them.

Parameters:

item - ItemType

getTypedItemForDecodedId

protected abstract ItemType getTypedItemForDecodedId(String itemId)

Returns the typed item.

Parameters:

itemId - the decoded item Id.

Returns:

ItemType
