Class WicketLinkTagHandler

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.wicket.markup.parser.AbstractMarkupFilter
      org.apache.wicket.markup.parser.filter.WicketLinkTagHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, IClusterable, IMarkupFilter, IComponentResolver

public class WicketLinkTagHandler
extends AbstractMarkupFilter
implements IComponentResolver

This is a markup inline filter. It identifies xml tags which include a href attribute and which are not Wicket specific components and flags these tags (ComponentTag) as autolink enabled. A component resolver will later resolve the href and assign a BookmarkablePageLink to it (automatically).

An application setting is used as default value, which might be modified for specific regions. These regions are identified by <wicket:link> tags with an optional 'autolink' attribute. The default value for the attribute is true, thus enabling autolinking. An open-close <wicket:link/> tag will change the autolink status until the end of the markup document or the next <wicket:link> tag respectively. <wicket:link> regions may be nested.

Method Detail

setAutomaticLinking

public void setAutomaticLinking(boolean enable)

Set the default value for autolinking

Parameters:

enable - if true, autolinks are enabled

onComponentTag

protected final MarkupElement onComponentTag(ComponentTag tag)
                                      throws java.text.ParseException

Description copied from class: AbstractMarkupFilter

Invoked when a ComponentTag was found.

By default this method is also called for WicketTags.

Specified by:

onComponentTag in class AbstractMarkupFilter

Returns:

Usually the same as the tag attribute

Throws:

java.text.ParseException

analyzeAutolinkCondition

protected boolean analyzeAutolinkCondition(ComponentTag tag)

Analyze the tag. If return value == true, a autolink component will be created.

Subclass analyzeAutolinkCondition() to implement you own implementation and register the new tag handler with the markup parser through Application.newMarkupParser().

Parameters:

tag - The current tag being parsed

Returns:

If true, tag will become auto-component

resolve

public Component resolve(MarkupContainer container,
                         MarkupStream markupStream,
                         ComponentTag tag)

Description copied from interface: IComponentResolver

Try to resolve a component.

Specified by:

resolve in interface IComponentResolver

Parameters:

container - The container parsing its markup

markupStream - The current markupStream

tag - The current component tag while parsing the markup

Returns:

component or null if not found
