public abstract class ResponseWriter
extends Writer

ResponseWriter is an abstract class describing an adapter to an underlying output mechanism for character-based output. In addition to the low-level write() methods inherited from java.io.Writer, this class provides utility methods that are useful in producing elements and attributes for markup languages like HTML and XML.

Constructor Detail

ResponseWriter

public ResponseWriter()
Method Detail

getContentType

public abstract String getContentType()

Return the content type (such as "text/html") for this ResponseWriter. Note: this must not include the "charset=" suffix.


getCharacterEncoding

public abstract String getCharacterEncoding()

Return the character encoding (such as "ISO-8859-1") for this ResponseWriter. Please see the IANA for a list of character encodings.


flush

public abstract void flush()
                    throws IOException

Flush any ouput buffered by the output method to the underlying Writer or OutputStream. This method will not flush the underlying Writer or OutputStream; it simply clears any values buffered by this ResponseWriter.

Specified by:
flush in interface Flushable
Specified by:
flush in class Writer
Throws:
IOException

startDocument

public abstract void startDocument()
                            throws IOException

Write whatever text should begin a response.

Throws:
IOException - if an input/output error occurs

endDocument

public abstract void endDocument()
                          throws IOException

Write whatever text should end a response. If there is an open element that has been created by a call to startElement(), that element will be closed first.

Throws:
IOException - if an input/output error occurs

startElement

public abstract void startElement(String name,
                                  UIComponent component)
                           throws IOException

Write the start of an element, up to and including the element name. Once this method has been called, clients can call the writeAttribute() or writeURIAttribute() methods to add attributes and corresponding values. The starting element will be closed (that is, the trailing '>' character added) on any subsequent call to startElement(), writeComment(), writeText(), endElement(), endDocument(), close(), flush(), or write().

Parameters:
name - Name of the element to be started
component - The UIComponent (if any) to which this element corresponds
Throws:
IOException - if an input/output error occurs
NullPointerException - if name is null

endElement

public abstract void endElement(String name)
                         throws IOException

Write the end of an element, after closing any open element created by a call to startElement(). Elements must be closed in the inverse order from which they were opened; it is an error to do otherwise.

Parameters:
name - Name of the element to be ended
Throws:
IOException - if an input/output error occurs
NullPointerException - if name is null

writeAttribute

public abstract void writeAttribute(String name,
                                    Object value,
                                    String property)
                             throws IOException

Write an attribute name and corresponding value, after converting that text to a String (if necessary), and after performing any escaping appropriate for the markup language being rendered. This method may only be called after a call to startElement(), and before the opened element has been closed.

Parameters:
name - Attribute name to be added
value - Attribute value to be added
property - Name of the property or attribute (if any) of the UIComponent associated with the containing element, to which this generated attribute corresponds
Throws:
IllegalStateException - if this method is called when there is no currently open element
IOException - if an input/output error occurs
NullPointerException - if name is null

writeURIAttribute

public abstract void writeURIAttribute(String name,
                                       Object value,
                                       String property)
                                throws IOException

Write a URI attribute name and corresponding value, after converting that text to a String (if necessary), and after performing any encoding appropriate to the markup language being rendered. This method may only be called after a call to startElement(), and before the opened element has been closed.

Parameters:
name - Attribute name to be added
value - Attribute value to be added
property - Name of the property or attribute (if any) of the UIComponent associated with the containing element, to which this generated attribute corresponds
Throws:
IllegalStateException - if this method is called when there is no currently open element
IOException - if an input/output error occurs
NullPointerException - if name is null

writeComment

public abstract void writeComment(Object comment)
                           throws IOException

Write a comment containing the specified text, after converting that text to a String (if necessary), and after performing any escaping appropriate for the markup language being rendered. If there is an open element that has been created by a call to startElement(), that element will be closed first.

Parameters:
comment - Text content of the comment
Throws:
IOException - if an input/output error occurs
NullPointerException - if comment is null

writeText

public abstract void writeText(Object text,
                               String property)
                        throws IOException

Write an object, after converting it to a String (if necessary), and after performing any escaping appropriate for the markup language being rendered. If there is an open element that has been created by a call to startElement(), that element will be closed first.

Parameters:
text - Text to be written
property - Name of the property or attribute (if any) of the UIComponent associated with the containing element, to which this generated text corresponds
Throws:
IOException - if an input/output error occurs
NullPointerException - if text is null

writeText

public void writeText(Object text,
                      UIComponent component,
                      String property)
               throws IOException

Write an object, after converting it to a String (if necessary), and after performing any escaping appropriate for the markup language being rendered. This method is equivalent to writeText(java.lang.Object,java.lang.String) but adds a component property to allow custom ResponseWriter implementations to associate a component with an arbitrary portion of text.

The default implementation simply ignores the component argument and calls through to writeText(java.lang.Object,java.lang.String)

Parameters:
text - Text to be written
component - The UIComponent (if any) to which this element corresponds
property - Name of the property or attribute (if any) of the UIComponent associated with the containing element, to which this generated text corresponds
Throws:
IOException - if an input/output error occurs
NullPointerException - if text is null
Since:
1.2

writeText

public abstract void writeText(char[] text,
                               int off,
                               int len)
                        throws IOException

Write text from a character array, after any performing any escaping appropriate for the markup language being rendered. If there is an open element that has been created by a call to startElement(), that element will be closed first.

Parameters:
text - Text to be written
off - Starting offset (zero-relative)
len - Number of characters to be written
Throws:
IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the calculated starting or ending position is outside the bounds of the character array
IOException - if an input/output error occurs
NullPointerException - if text is null

cloneWithWriter

public abstract ResponseWriter cloneWithWriter(Writer writer)

Create and return a new instance of this ResponseWriter, using the specified Writer as the output destination.

Parameters:
writer - The Writer that is the output destination
