public abstract class AbstractWizardFormController
extends AbstractFormController
extends AbstractFormController

Form controller for typical wizard-style workflows.

In contrast to classic forms, wizards have more than one form view page. Therefore, there are various actions instead of one single submit action:

finish: trying to leave the wizard successfully, that is, perform its final action, and thus requiring a valid state;
cancel: leaving the wizard without performing its final action, and thus without regard to the validity of its current state;
page change: showing another wizard page, e.g. the next or previous one, with regard to "dirty back" and "dirty forward".

Finish and cancel actions can be triggered by request parameters, named PARAM_FINISH ("_finish") and PARAM_CANCEL ("_cancel"), ignoring parameter values to allow for HTML buttons. The target page for page changes can be specified by PARAM_TARGET, appending the page number to the parameter name (e.g. "_target1"). The action parameters are recognized when triggered by image buttons too (via "_finish.x", "_abort.x", or "_target1.x").

The current page number will be stored in the session. It can also be specified as request parameter PARAM_PAGE, to properly handle usage of the back button in a browser: In this case, a submission always contains the correct page number, even if the user submitted from an old view.

The page can only be changed if it validates correctly, except if a "dirty back" or "dirty forward" is allowed. At finish, all pages get validated again to guarantee a consistent state.

Note that a validator's default validate method is not executed when using this class! Rather, the validatePage(java.lang.Object, org.springframework.validation.Errors, int, boolean) implementation should call special validateXXX methods that the validator needs to provide, validating certain pieces of the object. These can be combined to validate the elements of individual pages.

Note: Page numbering starts with 0, to be able to pass an array consisting of the corresponding view names to the "pages" bean property.

Constructor Detail

AbstractWizardFormController

public AbstractWizardFormController()

Create a new AbstractWizardFormController.

"sessionForm" is automatically turned on, "validateOnBinding" turned off, and "cacheSeconds" set to 0 by the base class (-> no caching for all form controllers).

Method Detail

setPages

public final void setPages(String[] pages)

Set the wizard pages, i.e. the view names for the pages. The array index is interpreted as page number.

Parameters:: pages - view names for the pages

getPages

public final String[] getPages()

Return the wizard pages, i.e. the view names for the pages. The array index corresponds to the page number.

Note that a concrete wizard form controller might override getViewName(HttpServletRequest, Object, int) to determine the view name for each page dynamically.

See Also:: getViewName(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, Object, int)

getPageCount

protected final int getPageCount()

Return the number of wizard pages. Useful to check whether the last page has been reached.

Note that a concrete wizard form controller might override getPageCount(HttpServletRequest, Object) to determine the page count dynamically. The default implementation of that extended getPageCount variant returns the static page count as determined by this getPageCount() method.

See Also:: getPageCount(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, Object)

setPageAttribute

public final void setPageAttribute(String pageAttribute)

Set the name of the page attribute in the model, containing an Integer with the current page number.

This will be necessary for single views rendering multiple view pages. It also allows for specifying the optional "_page" parameter.

Parameters:: pageAttribute - name of the page attribute
See Also:: PARAM_PAGE

getPageAttribute

public final String getPageAttribute()

Return the name of the page attribute in the model.

setAllowDirtyBack

public final void setAllowDirtyBack(boolean allowDirtyBack)

Set if "dirty back" is allowed, that is, if moving to a former wizard page is allowed in case of validation errors for the current page.

Parameters:: allowDirtyBack - if "dirty back" is allowed

isAllowDirtyBack

public final boolean isAllowDirtyBack()

Return whether "dirty back" is allowed.

setAllowDirtyForward

public final void setAllowDirtyForward(boolean allowDirtyForward)

Set if "dirty forward" is allowed, that is, if moving to a later wizard page is allowed in case of validation errors for the current page.

Parameters:: allowDirtyForward - if "dirty forward" is allowed

isAllowDirtyForward

public final boolean isAllowDirtyForward()

Return whether "dirty forward" is allowed.

Default is an internal name, of no relevance to applications, as the form session attribute is not usually accessed directly. Can be overridden to use an application-specific attribute name, which allows other code to access the session attribute directly.

Returns:: the name of the page session attribute
See Also:: AbstractFormController.getFormSessionAttributeName(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest), HttpSession.getAttribute(java.lang.String)

handleInvalidSubmit

protected ModelAndView handleInvalidSubmit(HttpServletRequest request,
                                           HttpServletResponse response)
                                    throws Exception

Handle an invalid submit request, e.g. when in session form mode but no form object was found in the session (like in case of an invalid resubmit by the browser).

The default implementation for wizard form controllers simply shows the initial page of a new wizard form. If you want to show some "invalid submit" message, you need to override this method.

Overrides:: handleInvalidSubmit in class AbstractFormController

Parameters:: request - current HTTP request; response - current HTTP response
Returns:: a prepared view, or null if handled directly
Throws:: Exception - in case of errors
See Also:: AbstractFormController.showNewForm(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse), AbstractFormController.setBindOnNewForm(boolean)

processFormSubmission

protected final ModelAndView processFormSubmission(HttpServletRequest request,
                                                   HttpServletResponse response,
                                                   Object command,
                                                   BindException errors)
                                            throws Exception

Apply wizard workflow: finish, cancel, page change.

Specified by:: processFormSubmission in class AbstractFormController

Parameters:: request - current servlet request; response - current servlet response; command - form object with request parameters bound onto it; errors - holder without errors (subclass can add errors if it wants to)
Returns:: the prepared model and view, or null
Throws:: Exception - in case of errors
See Also:: AbstractFormController.handleRequestInternal(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse), AbstractFormController.isFormSubmission(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest), AbstractFormController.showForm(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse, BindException), Errors, BindException.getModel()

getCurrentPage

protected int getCurrentPage(HttpServletRequest request)

Return the current page number. Used by processFormSubmission.

The default implementation checks the page session attribute. Subclasses can override this for customized page determination.

See Also:: processFormSubmission(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, java.lang.Object, org.springframework.validation.BindException), getPageSessionAttributeName(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest)

isFinishRequest

protected boolean isFinishRequest(HttpServletRequest request)

Determine whether the incoming request is a request to finish the processing of the current form.

By default, this method returns true if a parameter matching the "_finish" key is present in the request, otherwise it returns false. Subclasses may override this method to provide custom logic to detect a finish request.

The parameter is recognized both when sent as a plain parameter ("_finish") or when triggered by an image button ("_finish.x").

Parameters:: request - current HTTP request
See Also:: PARAM_FINISH

isCancelRequest

protected boolean isCancelRequest(HttpServletRequest request)

Determine whether the incoming request is a request to cancel the processing of the current form.

By default, this method returns true if a parameter matching the "_cancel" key is present in the request, otherwise it returns false. Subclasses may override this method to provide custom logic to detect a cancel request.

The parameter is recognized both when sent as a plain parameter ("_cancel") or when triggered by an image button ("_cancel.x").

Parameters:: request - current HTTP request
See Also:: PARAM_CANCEL

getTargetPage

protected int getTargetPage(HttpServletRequest request,
                            Object command,
                            Errors errors,
                            int currentPage)

Return the target page specified in the request.

The default implementation delegates to getTargetPage(HttpServletRequest, int). Subclasses can override this for customized target page determination.

Parameters:: request - current HTTP request; command - form object with request parameters bound onto it; errors - validation errors holder; currentPage - the current page, to be returned as fallback if no target page specified
Returns:: the page specified in the request, or current page if not found
See Also:: getTargetPage(HttpServletRequest, int)

getTargetPage

protected int getTargetPage(HttpServletRequest request,
                            int currentPage)

Return the target page specified in the request.

The default implementation examines "_target" parameter (e.g. "_target1"). Subclasses can override this for customized target page determination.

Parameters:: request - current HTTP request; currentPage - the current page, to be returned as fallback if no target page specified
Returns:: the page specified in the request, or current page if not found
See Also:: PARAM_TARGET

validatePage

protected void validatePage(Object command,
                            Errors errors,
                            int page,
                            boolean finish)

Template method for custom validation logic for individual pages. The default implementation calls validatePage(Object, Errors, int).

Implementations will typically call fine-granular validateXXX methods of this instance's Validator, combining them to validation of the corresponding pages. The Validator's default validate method will not be called by a wizard form controller!

Parameters:: command - form object with the current wizard state; errors - validation errors holder; page - number of page to validate; finish - whether this method is called during final revalidation on finish (else, it is called for validating the current page)
See Also:: validatePage(Object, Errors, int), Validator.validate(java.lang.Object, org.springframework.validation.Errors)

validatePage

protected void validatePage(Object command,
                            Errors errors,
                            int page)

Template method for custom validation logic for individual pages. The default implementation is empty.

Implementations will typically call fine-granular validateXXX methods of this instance's validator, combining them to validation of the corresponding pages. The validator's default validate method will not be called by a wizard form controller!

Parameters:: command - form object with the current wizard state; errors - validation errors holder; page - number of page to validate
See Also:: Validator.validate(java.lang.Object, org.springframework.validation.Errors)

postProcessPage

protected void postProcessPage(HttpServletRequest request,
                               Object command,
                               Errors errors,
                               int page)
                        throws Exception

Post-process the given page after binding and validation, potentially updating its command object. The passed-in request might contain special parameters sent by the page.

Only invoked when displaying another page or the same page again, not when finishing or cancelling.

Parameters:: request - current HTTP request; command - form object with request parameters bound onto it; errors - validation errors holder; page - number of page to post-process
Throws:: Exception - in case of invalid state or arguments

processFinish

protected abstract ModelAndView processFinish(HttpServletRequest request,
                                              HttpServletResponse response,
                                              Object command,
                                              BindException errors)
                                       throws Exception

Template method for processing the final action of this wizard.

Call errors.getModel() to populate the ModelAndView model with the command and the Errors instance, under the specified command name, as expected by the "spring:bind" tag.

You can call the showPage(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, org.springframework.validation.BindException, int) method to return back to the wizard, in case of last-minute validation errors having been found that you would like to present to the user within the original wizard form.

Parameters:: request - current HTTP request; response - current HTTP response; command - form object with the current wizard state; errors - validation errors holder
Returns:: the finish view
Throws:: Exception - in case of invalid state or arguments
See Also:: Errors, BindException.getModel(), showPage(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, org.springframework.validation.BindException, int)

processCancel

protected ModelAndView processCancel(HttpServletRequest request,
                                     HttpServletResponse response,
                                     Object command,
                                     BindException errors)
                              throws Exception

Template method for processing the cancel action of this wizard.

The default implementation throws a ServletException, saying that a cancel operation is not supported by this controller. Thus, you do not need to implement this template method if you do not support a cancel operation.

Call errors.getModel() to populate the ModelAndView model with the command and the Errors instance, under the specified command name, as expected by the "spring:bind" tag.

Parameters:: request - current HTTP request; response - current HTTP response; command - form object with the current wizard state; errors - Errors instance containing errors
Returns:: the cancellation view
Throws:: Exception - in case of invalid state or arguments
See Also:: Errors, BindException.getModel()
