Method Detail

getPropertyType

protected Class<?> getPropertyType(Object propertyId)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: FieldGroup

Gets the type of the property with the given property id.

Overrides:

getPropertyType in class FieldGroup

Parameters:

propertyId - The propertyId. Must be find

Returns:

The type of the property

findPropertyId

protected Object findPropertyId(Field memberField)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: FieldGroup

Searches for a property id from the current itemDataSource that matches the given memberField.

If perfect match is not found, uses a case insensitive search that also ignores underscores. Returns null if no match is found. Throws a SearchException if no item data source has been set.

The propertyId search logic used by buildAndBindMemberFields can easily be customized by overriding this method. No other changes are needed.

Overrides:

findPropertyId in class FieldGroup

Parameters:

memberField - The field an object id is searched for

Returns:

setItemDataSource

public void setItemDataSource(T bean)

Deprecated.

Helper method for setting the data source directly using a bean. This method wraps the bean in a BeanItem and calls setItemDataSource(Item).

For null values, a null item is passed to setItemDataSource(Item) to be properly clear fields.

Parameters:

bean - The bean to use as data source.

setItemDataSource

public void setItemDataSource(Item item)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: FieldGroup

Updates the item that is used by this FieldBinder. Rebinds all fields to the properties in the new item.

Overrides:

setItemDataSource in class FieldGroup

Parameters:

item - The new item to use

getItemDataSource

public BeanItem<T> getItemDataSource()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: FieldGroup

Gets the item used by this FieldBinder. Note that you must call FieldGroup.commit() for the item to be updated unless buffered mode has been switched off.

Overrides:

getItemDataSource in class FieldGroup

Returns:

The item used by this FieldBinder

See Also:

FieldGroup.setBuffered(boolean), FieldGroup.commit()

bind

public void bind(Field field,
                 Object propertyId)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: FieldGroup

Binds the field with the given propertyId from the current item. If an item has not been set then the binding is postponed until the item is set using FieldGroup.setItemDataSource(Item).

This method also adds validators when applicable.

Overrides:

bind in class FieldGroup

Parameters:

field - The field to bind

propertyId - The propertyId to bind to the field

buildAndBind

public <T extends Field> T buildAndBind(String caption,
                                        Object propertyId,
                                        Class<T> fieldType)
                                 throws FieldGroup.BindException

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: FieldGroup

Builds a field using the given caption and binds it to the given property id using the field binder. Ensures the new field is of the given type.

Overrides:

buildAndBind in class FieldGroup

Parameters:

caption - The caption for the field

propertyId - The property id to bind to. Must be present in the field finder.

Returns:

The created and bound field. Can be any type of Field.

Throws:

FieldGroup.BindException - If the field could not be created

unbind

public void unbind(Field<?> field)
            throws FieldGroup.BindException

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: FieldGroup

Detaches the field from its property id and removes it from this FieldBinder.

Note that the field is not detached from its property data source if it is no longer connected to the same property id it was bound to using this FieldBinder.

Overrides:

unbind in class FieldGroup

Parameters:

field - The field to detach

Throws:

FieldGroup.BindException - If the field is not bound by this field binder or not bound to the correct property id

configureField

protected void configureField(Field<?> field)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: FieldGroup

Configures a field with the settings set for this FieldBinder.

By default this updates the buffered, read only and enabled state of the field. Also adds validators when applicable. Fields with read only data source are always configured as read only.

Overrides:

configureField in class FieldGroup

Parameters:

field - The field to update

isBeanValidationImplementationAvailable

protected static boolean isBeanValidationImplementationAvailable()

Deprecated.

Checks whether a bean validation implementation (e.g. Hibernate Validator or Apache Bean Validation) is available. TODO move this method to some more generic location

Returns:

true if a JSR-303 bean validation implementation is available

Convenience method to bind Fields from a given "field container" to a given bean with buffering disabled.

The returned BeanFieldGroup can be used for further configuration.

Parameters:

bean - the bean to be bound
