Method Detail

getFormat

public java.lang.String getFormat()

Returns the format.

Default: null (used what is defined in the format sheet).

setFormat

public void setFormat(java.lang.String format)
               throws WrongValueException

Sets the format.

Throws:

WrongValueException

getOuterAttrs

public java.lang.String getOuterAttrs()

Description copied from class: HtmlBasedComponent

Returns the exterior attributes for generating the enclosing HTML tag; never return null.

Used only by component developers.

Default: Generates the tooltip text, style, sclass, draggable and droppable attribute if necessary. In other words, the corresponding attribute is generated if HtmlBasedComponent.getTooltiptext(), HtmlBasedComponent.getRealStyle(), HtmlBasedComponent.getSclass(), HtmlBasedComponent.getDraggable(), HtmlBasedComponent.getDroppable() are defined.

You have to call both HtmlBasedComponent.getOuterAttrs() and HtmlBasedComponent.getInnerAttrs() to generate complete attributes.

For simple components that all attributes are put on the outest HTML element, all you need is as follows.

<xx id="${self.uuid}"${self.outerAttrs}${self.innerAttrs}>

If you want to put attributes in a nested HTML element, you shall use the following pattern. Notice: if HtmlBasedComponent.getInnerAttrs() in a different tag, the tag must be named with "${self.uuid}!real".

<xx id="${self.uuid}"${self.outerAttrs}>
 <yy id="${self.uuid}!real"${self.innerAttrs}>...

Note: This class handles non-deferrable event listeners automatically. However, you have to invoke AbstractComponent.appendAsapAttr(java.lang.StringBuffer, java.lang.String) for each event the component handles in HtmlBasedComponent.getOuterAttrs() as follows.

        appendAsapAttr(sb, Events.ON_OPEN);
  appendAsapAttr(sb, Events.ON_CHANGE);

Theorectically, you could put any attributes in either HtmlBasedComponent.getInnerAttrs() or HtmlBasedComponent.getOuterAttrs(). However, zkau.js assumes all attributes are put at the outer one. If you want something different, you have to provide your own setAttr (refer to how checkbox is implemented).

Overrides:

getOuterAttrs in class InputElement

shallServerFormat

protected boolean shallServerFormat()

Returns whether the server-side formatting shall take place.

It returns true if and only if getFormat() is not null. In other words, if the format is specified, ON_CHANGE is sent back immediately to the server to retrieve back the data in the correct format.

Overrides:

shallServerFormat in class InputElement
