public interface Lifecycle

The ADF Lifecycle provides support allowing a web page to interact with ADF Model data bindings. The lifecycle calls the correct binding container needed for a JSP or UIX page, updates values in the binding container's bindings if necessary, and prepares the data to be rendered. The binding container stores this data locally before rendering the page.

NOTE: Implementations of Lifecycle should be thread-safe and use the LifecycleContext object as the place to store any per-request state they may need.

Since:

9.0.5

Method Detail

handleLifecycle

void handleLifecycle(LifecycleContext lcContext)
                     throws java.lang.Exception

Deprecated.

Define all the phases of the lifecycle and the order they are executed.

Parameters:

lcContext - the lifecycle context

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

buildEventList

void buildEventList(LifecycleContext lcContext)

Deprecated.

Builds the list of events with their possible associated action binding from the request parameters.

Parameters:

lcContext - the lifecycle context

prepareModel

void prepareModel(LifecycleContext lcContext)
                  throws java.lang.Exception

Deprecated.

Give the opportunity for the data model to prepare and initialize. This method will throw if the data model cannot be prepared.

Parameters:

lcContext - the lifecycle context

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

shouldAllowModelUpdate

boolean shouldAllowModelUpdate(LifecycleContext lcContext)

Deprecated.

Allows clients to determine whether the model should be updated.

Parameters:

lcContext - the lifecycle context.

Returns:

true, if the model should be updated during this lifecycle

processUpdateModel

void processUpdateModel(LifecycleContext lcContext)

Deprecated.

Update the data model with values submitted in the request.

Parameters:

lcContext - the lifecycle context

validateModelUpdates

void validateModelUpdates(LifecycleContext lcContext)

Deprecated.

Forces model-level validation to occur.

Parameters:

lcContext - the lifecycle context

hasErrors

boolean hasErrors(LifecycleContext lcContext)

Deprecated.

Ask the context if any errors have been recorded during this lifecycle.

Parameters:

lcContext - the lifecycle context

Returns:

true, if any validation errors have been stored in the LifecycleContext.

processComponentEvents

void processComponentEvents(LifecycleContext lcContext)
                            throws java.lang.Exception

Deprecated.

Handle any events in the action binding list previously built in processUpdateModel using the buildEventList method.

Parameters:

lcContext - the lifecycle context

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

initializeMethodParameters

void initializeMethodParameters(LifecycleContext lcContext,
                                oracle.jbo.uicli.binding.JUCtrlActionBinding actionBinding)
