Class SmartStyle

java.lang.Object
  nextapp.echo.Style
      echopoint.stylesheet.SmartStyle

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class SmartStyle

extends nextapp.echo.Style

The SmartStyle class is a Style that knows which style attributes have been accessed when the applyStyle() method is called and can then use reflection to set any unaccessed style attributes into a Component.

All contained style attributes are marked as NOT accessed until such time as they are accessed via one of the getter methods. This is most likely done in the Component.applyStyle() method.

Any unaccessed style attributes can then be applied to the Component via bean introspection and reflection. This will look to see that the Component has a setter method of the right name (the style attribute name) and right type (the style attribute value type). If so then a reflection will will be performed to set the style attribute.

getUnAccessedAttributes

public java.lang.String[] getUnAccessedAttributes()

Returns an array of all style attribute names that have not ben accessed.

Returns:

String[] - an array of style attribute names.

setUnAccessedAttributes

public void setUnAccessedAttributes(nextapp.echo.Component c)

Will perform "relection set" on a Component for any attributes that have not be accessed for this style. This is designed to be called after the Component.applyStyle() method has been called.

Once this call completes, all style attributes that have been succesffuly set will be marked as accessed.

Parameters:

c - - the Component to perform reflection on
