Constructor Detail

Embedded

public Embedded()

Creates a new empty Embedded object.

Embedded

public Embedded(String caption)

Creates a new empty Embedded object with caption.

Parameters:: caption -

Embedded

public Embedded(String caption,
                Resource source)

Creates a new Embedded object whose contents is loaded from given resource. The dimensions are assumed if possible. The type is guessed from resource.

Parameters:: caption -; source - the Source of the embedded object.

Method Detail

paintContent

public void paintContent(PaintTarget target)
                  throws PaintException

Invoked when the component state should be painted.

Overrides:: paintContent in class AbstractComponent

Parameters:: target - the target UIDL stream where the component should paint itself to
Throws:: PaintException - if the paint operation failed.

setAlternateText

public void setAlternateText(String altText)

Sets this component's "alt-text", that is, an alternate text that can be presented instead of this component's normal content, for accessibility purposes. Does not work when setType(int) has been called with TYPE_BROWSER.

Parameters:: altText - A short, human-readable description of this component's content.
Since:: 6.8

getAlternateText

public String getAlternateText()

Gets this component's "alt-text".

See Also:: setAlternateText(String)

setParameter

public void setParameter(String name,
                         String value)

Sets an object parameter. Parameters are optional information, and they are passed to the instantiated object. Parameters are are stored as name value pairs. This overrides the previous value assigned to this parameter.

Parameters:: name - the name of the parameter.; value - the value of the parameter.

getParameter

public String getParameter(String name)

Gets the value of an object parameter. Parameters are optional information, and they are passed to the instantiated object. Parameters are are stored as name value pairs.

Returns:: the Value of parameter or null if not found.

removeParameter

public void removeParameter(String name)

Removes an object parameter from the list.

Parameters:: name - the name of the parameter to remove.

getParameterNames

public Iterator<String> getParameterNames()

Gets the embedded object parameter names.

Returns:: the Iterator of parameters names.

getCodebase

public String getCodebase()

This attribute specifies the base path used to resolve relative URIs specified by the classid, data, and archive attributes. When absent, its default value is the base URI of the current document.

Returns:: the code base.

getCodetype

public String getCodetype()

Gets the MIME-Type of the code.

Returns:: the MIME-Type of the code.

getMimeType

public String getMimeType()

Gets the MIME-Type of the object.

Returns:: the MIME-Type of the object.

getStandby

public String getStandby()

This attribute specifies a message that a user agent may render while loading the object's implementation and data.

Returns:: The text displayed when loading

setCodebase

public void setCodebase(String codebase)

This attribute specifies the base path used to resolve relative URIs specified by the classid, data, and archive attributes. When absent, its default value is the base URI of the current document.

Parameters:: codebase - The base path

setCodetype

public void setCodetype(String codetype)

This attribute specifies the content type of data expected when downloading the object specified by classid. This attribute is optional but recommended when classid is specified since it allows the user agent to avoid loading information for unsupported content types. When absent, it defaults to the value of the type attribute.

Parameters:: codetype - the codetype to set.

setMimeType

public void setMimeType(String mimeType)

Sets the mimeType, the MIME-Type of the object.

Parameters:: mimeType - the mimeType to set.

setStandby

public void setStandby(String standby)

This attribute specifies a message that a user agent may render while loading the object's implementation and data.

Parameters:: standby - The text to display while loading

getClassId

public String getClassId()

This attribute may be used to specify the location of an object's implementation via a URI.

Returns:: the classid.

setClassId

public void setClassId(String classId)

This attribute may be used to specify the location of an object's implementation via a URI.

Parameters:: classId - the classId to set.

getSource

public Resource getSource()

Gets the resource contained in the embedded object.

Returns:: the Resource

getType

public int getType()

Gets the type of the embedded object.

This can be one of the following:

TYPE_OBJECT (This is the default)
TYPE_IMAGE

Returns:: the type.

setSource

public void setSource(Resource source)

Sets the object source resource. The dimensions are assumed if possible. The type is guessed from resource.

Parameters:: source - the source to set.

setType

public void setType(int type)

Sets the object type.

This can be one of the following:

TYPE_OBJECT (This is the default)
TYPE_IMAGE
TYPE_BROWSER

Parameters:: type - the type to set.

getArchive

public String getArchive()

This attribute may be used to specify a space-separated list of URIs for archives containing resources relevant to the object, which may include the resources specified by the classid and data attributes. Preloading archives will generally result in reduced load times for objects. Archives specified as relative URIs should be interpreted relative to the codebase attribute.

Returns:: Space-separated list of URIs with resources relevant to the object

setArchive

public void setArchive(String archive)

Parameters:: archive - Space-separated list of URIs with resources relevant to the object

addListener

public void addListener(MouseEvents.ClickListener listener)

Add a click listener to the component. The listener is called whenever the user clicks inside the component. Depending on the content the event may be blocked and in that case no event is fired. Use #removeListener(ClickListener) to remove the listener.

Parameters:: listener - The listener to add

removeListener

public void removeListener(MouseEvents.ClickListener listener)

Remove a click listener from the component. The listener should earlier have been added using #addListener(ClickListener).

Parameters:: listener - The listener to remove

changeVariables

public void changeVariables(Object source,
                            Map<String,Object> variables)

Description copied from interface: VariableOwner

Called when one or more variables handled by the implementing class are changed.

Specified by:: changeVariables in interface VariableOwner
Overrides:: changeVariables in class AbstractComponent

Parameters:: source - the Source of the variable change. This is the origin of the event. For example in Web Adapter this is the request.; variables - the Mapping from variable names to new variable values.
