| getAspectDescriptions | | Iterator getAspectDescriptions(Object preparedConfiguration)(Code) | | Return the aspects required for this renderer
An iterator for the aspect descriptions or null. |
| isRequired | | boolean isRequired()(Code) | | |
| prepareConfiguration | | Object prepareConfiguration(Parameters configuration) throws ParameterException(Code) | | Compile the configuration.
A renderer aspect can "compile" the configuration in
order to increase performance.
If the renderer does not want to compile it should
simply return the configuration.
The "compiled" configuration is passed to the
RendererAspect.getAspectDescriptions(Object) method and
is available during streaming via the context object.
This method can also be used for validation the configuration.
