Interface ClientBehaviorSupport

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    ClientBehaviorSupportImpl
    public interface ClientBehaviorSupport
    Deprecated.
    Deprecated in 5.4 with no replacement. Use JavaScriptSupport directly, instead.
    Collects details about zone usage for efficient initialization of the client side objects. This has grown to include the client-side behavior associated with FormFragments. This interface is only kept for binary compatibility in Tapestry 5.4; the implementation no longer does anything but throw exceptions and will be removed in 5.5.

      • addZone

        void addZone(String clientId,
             String showFunctionName,
             String updateFunctionName)
        Deprecated.
        Adds a new client-side Tapestry.Zone object. Zones are linked to a an element (typically, a <div>). A Zone may have handlers used to initially show it, or to highlight it when its content changes. Such handlers are referenced by name, as functions of the Tapestry.ElementEffect object.
        Parameters:
        clientId - client-side id of the element that will be updated by the zone
        showFunctionName - name of the function used to initially show the zone (if not visible), or null for default
        updateFunctionName - name of function used to highlight the function after an update, or null for default

      • linkZone

        void linkZone(String linkId,
              String elementId,
              Link eventLink)
        Deprecated.
        Sets the client-side onclick handler for an <a> element to perform an Ajax update of a zone. Starting in Tapestry 5.4, this can be accomplished by adding a "data-update-zone" attribute to the element. The attribute value may be ^ or the id of the zone's client element.
        Parameters:
        linkId - id of the link to Ajax enable
        elementId - id of an element that has been previously registered as a Zone
        eventLink -

      • addFormFragment

        void addFormFragment(String clientId,
                     String showFunctionName,
                     String hideFunctionName)
        Deprecated.
        Use addFormFragment(String, boolean, String, String, String) instead
        Adds a new client-side Tapestry.FormFragment object. FormFragment's are used to make parts of a client-side form visible or invisible, which involves interactions with both the server-side and client-side validation.
        Parameters:
        clientId - client-side id of the element that will be made visible or invisible
        showFunctionName - name of function (of the Tapestry.ElementEffect object) used to make the SubForm visible, or null for the default
        hideFunctionName - name of the function used to make the SubForm invisible, or null for the default

      • addFormFragment

        void addFormFragment(String clientId,
                     boolean alwaysSubmit,
                     String showFunctionName,
                     String hideFunctionName)
        Deprecated.
        Use addFormFragment(String, boolean, String, String, String) instead
        Adds a new client-side Tapestry.FormFragment object. FormFragment's are used to make parts of a client-side form visible or invisible, which involves interactions with both the server-side and client-side validation.
        Parameters:
        clientId - client-side id of the element that will be made visible or invisible
        alwaysSubmit - if true, the fragment ignores client-side visiblility and always submits its values
        showFunctionName - name of function (of the Tapestry.ElementEffect object) used to make the SubForm visible, or null for the default
        hideFunctionName - name of the function used to make the SubForm invisible, or null for the default

      • addFormFragment

        void addFormFragment(String clientId,
                     boolean alwaysSubmit,
                     String showFunctionName,
                     String hideFunctionName,
                     String visibilityBoundFunctionName)
        Deprecated.
        In 5.4; use the core/form-fragment module instead.
        Adds a new client-side Tapestry.FormFragment object. FormFragment's are used to make parts of a client-side form visible or invisible, which involves interactions with both the server-side and client-side validation. This implementation has been removed in 5.4; it throws an UnsupportedOperationException.
        Parameters:
        clientId - client-side id of the element that will be made visible or invisible
        alwaysSubmit - if true, the fragment ignores client-side visiblility and always submits its values
        showFunctionName - name of function (of the Tapestry.ElementEffect object) used to make the SubForm visible, or null for the default
        hideFunctionName - name of the function used to make the SubForm invisible, or null for the default
        visibilityBoundFunctionName - name of the function used to bound the isDeepVisible search, or null for the default

                     String showFunctionName)
        Deprecated.
