Interface Execution

  • All Superinterfaces:
    Scope
    All Known Implementing Classes:
    AbstractExecution, ExecutionImpl
    public interface Execution
extends Scope
    An execution of a client request (e.g., ServletRequest). When a request sent from a client, the server constructs a Execution object to hold execution relevant info, and then serves the request thru this execution.

    A client request, e.g., HttpServletRequest, might consist of multiple ZK request (AuRequest). However, these ZK requests must target the same desktop of pages (Page).

    Because a request might come from HTTP or other protocol, Execution also serves as an isolation layer.

      • addVariableResolver

        boolean addVariableResolver​(VariableResolver resolver)
        Adds a name resolver that will be used to resolve a variable (by getVariableResolver()).

        The new added variable resolver is called first, so it has the higher priority than the previous added variable resolver. In additions, the priority of the variable resolver added with this method is higher than the variable resolvers added to a page (Page.addVariableResolver(org.zkoss.xel.VariableResolver)). However, its priority is lower than attributes defined in the execution and components.

        Notice that getVariableResolver() returns a variable resolver used to evaluate EL expressions. It resolves all builtin names and all custom variable resolvers. It is not any variable resolver added by this method.

        Returns:
        whether the resolver is added successfully. Note: if the resolver was added before, it won't be added again and this method returns false.
        Since:

      • postEvent

        void postEvent​(int priority,
               Event evt)
        Queues an event with the specified priority to this execution. In other words, the event is placed to the event queue with the specified priority.

        The event will be sent to the component specified in Event.getTarget(). If Event.getTarget() is null, it means broadcast, i.e., all root components will receive this event. If you prefer a different target, you could use postEvent(int, Component, Event) instead.

        The posted events are processed from the higher priority to the lower one. If two events are posted with the same priority, the earlier the event being posted is processed earlier (first-in-first-out).

        The priority posted by posted by postEvent(Event) is 0. Applications shall not use the priority higher than 10,000 and lower than -10,000 since they are reserved for component development.

        Parameters:
        priority - the priority of the event. The default priority is 0 and the higher value means higher priority.

               Event evt)
        Queues the give event for the specified target to this execution. The target could be different from Event.getTarget().
        Parameters:
        priority - the priority of the event. The default priority is 0 and the higher value means higher priority.
        realTarget - the target component that will receive the event. If null, it means broadcast, i.e., all root components will receive this event.
        Notice that postEvent(n, event) is the same as postEvent(n, event.getTarget(), event), but different from postEvent(n, 0, event).

             int mode)
      throws java.io.IOException
        Forwards to another page.

        Note: this method can be called only when loading a page. Use sendRedirect(String) instead if you want to change to another desktop when processing a request from the client.

        Parameters:
        writer - the output to write. If null, the response's default writer is used.
        page - the page's uri; null to denote the same request
        mode - one of OVERWRITE_URI, IGNORE_PARAM, APPEND_PARAM and PASS_THRU_ATTR. It defines how to handle if both uri and params contains the same parameter. mode is used only if both uri contains query string and params is not empty.

      • locate

        java.lang.String locate​(java.lang.String path)
        Locates a page based on the current Locale. It never returns null.

        If an URI contains "*", it will be replaced with a proper Locale. For example, if the current Locale is zh_TW and the resource is named "ab*.cd", then it searches "ab_zh_TW.cd", "ab_zh.cd" and then "ab.cd", until any of them is found.

        Note: "*" must be right before ".", or the last character. For example, "ab*.cd" and "ab*" are both correct, while "ab*cd" and "ab*\/cd" are ignored.

        If an URI contains two "*", the first "*" will be replaced with a browser code and the second with a proper locale. The browser code depends on what browser the user are used to visit the web site. Currently, the code for Internet Explorer is "ie", Safari is "saf", Opera is "opr" and all others are "moz". Thus, in the above example, if the resource is named "ab**.cd" and Firefox is used, then it searches "abmoz_zh_TW.cd", "abmoz_zh.cd" and then "abmoz.cd", until any of them is found.

        Note: it assumes the path as name_lang_cn_var.ext where ".ext" is optional. Example, my_zh_tw.html.jsp.

        If an URI starting with "~./", it assumes the resource is from the class path.

        Parameters:
        path - the page path excluding servlet name. It is OK to have the query string. It might contain "*" for current browser code and Locale.
        Returns:
        the path that matches the wildcard; path, otherwise

      • isVoided

        boolean isVoided()
        Returns whether the execution is voided. By void we mean ZK Loader shall stop evaluation of a ZUML document, since the request will be taken charged by other servlet or redirect to another page. The execution shall not do anything more. In other words, the execution is avoided and won't generate any output.

        The common cause of being voided is the invocation of forward(java.io.Writer, java.lang.String, java.util.Map<java.lang.String, ?>, int).

        Since:
        2.4.0

      • setVoided

        void setVoided​(boolean voided)
        Sets whether the execution is voided. By void we mean ZK Loader shall stop evaluation of a ZUML document, since the request will be taken charged by other servlet or redirect to another page.

        If you invoke forward(java.io.Writer, java.lang.String, java.util.Map<java.lang.String, ?>, int), this method is called automatically with true. Thus, you rarely need to invoke this method, unless you forward to other servlet by use javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher directly.

        The other case to invoke this method is if you'd like to redirect to another (by specifying the refresh header).

        If the ZK page has already been created, this method throws an IllegalStateException, i.e. you cannot invoke this method in Composer.doAfterCompose(Component). (@since 6.5.5)

        Converts the specified URI to an absolute URI, if uri is related and the current execution is not included (isIncluded()).

        Note: an asynchronous update is processed by the update servlet. It is different from the servlet for rendering the ZUML page. In other words, a relative URI won't be interpreted correctly, so you have to invoke this method to convert them if necessary.

        In additions, RequestDispatcher.include doesn't handle related URI well.

        Parameters:
        skipInclude - whether not to convert to an absolute URI if the current page is included by another page. If you are not sure, you might specify false.

      • addAuResponse

        void addAuResponse​(AuResponse resposne)
        Adds an asynchronous response (AuResponse) which will be sent to client at the end of the execution. It is the same as addAuResponse(response.getOverrideKey(), resposne)

        If AuResponse.getDepends() is not null, the response depends on the returned componet. In other words, the response is removed if the component is removed. If it is null, the response is component-independent.

        If AuResponse.getDepends() is not null, the response depends on the returned componet. In other words, the response is removed if the component is removed. If it is null, the response is component-independent.

        Parameters:
        key - could be anything. If not null, the second invocation of this method in the same execution with the same key and the same depends (AuResponse.getDepends()) will override the previous one. In other words, the previous one will be dropped. If null is specified, the response is simply appended to the end without overriding any previous one.
