Class ComponentResourceSelector


  • public final class ComponentResourceSelector
    extends Object
    Encapsulates the information that is used when locating a template or message catalog associated with a component. The selector is combined with the component class name to locate the other resources. The selector defines one or more axes that are combined with a ComponentResourceLocator implementation to enforce a naming convention for locating resources. The primary axis is Locale (Tapestry 5.2 and earlier used a Locale instance as the selector), but Tapestry 5.3 adds support for additional axes.
    Since:
    5.3

        public <T> ComponentResourceSelector withAxis(Class<T> axisType,

        axisValue - non-null axis value
        Returns:
        new selector including axis value
