| javax.portlet.PortletURL
All known Subclasses: com.sun.portal.portlet.impl.PortletURLImpl,
PortletURL | public interface PortletURL (Code) | | The PortletURL interface represents a URL
that reference the portlet itself.
A PortletURL is created through the RenderResponse .
Parameters, a portlet mode, a window state and a security level
can be added to PortletURL objects. The PortletURL
must be converted to a String in order to embed it into
the markup generated by the portlet.
There are two types of PortletURLs:
- Action URLs, they are created with
RenderResponse.createActionURL , and
trigger an action request followed by a render request.
- Render URLs, they are created with
RenderResponse.createRenderURL , and
trigger a render request.
The string reprensentation of a PortletURL does not need to be a valid
URL at the time the portlet is generating its content. It may contain
special tokens that will be converted to a valid URL, by the portal,
before the content is returned to the client.

Method Summary | |
public void | setParameter(String name, String value) Sets the given String parameter to this URL. | public void | setParameter(String name, String[] values) Sets the given String array parameter to this URL. | public void | setParameters(java.util.Map parameters) Sets a parameter map for this URL.
All previously set parameters are cleared.
The PortletURL implementation 'x-www-form-urlencoded' encodes
all parameter names and values. | public void | setPortletMode(PortletMode portletMode) Indicates the portlet mode the portlet must be in, if this
portlet URL triggers a request. | public void | setSecure(boolean secure) Indicated the security setting for this URL. | public void | setWindowState(WindowState windowState) Indicates the window state the portlet should be in, if this
portlet URL triggers a request. | public String | toString() Returns the portlet URL string representation to be embedded in the
markup.
Note that the returned String may not be a valid URL, as it may
be rewritten by the portal/portlet-container before returning the
markup to the client. |
setParameter | public void setParameter(String name, String value)(Code) | | Sets the given String parameter to this URL.
This method replaces all parameters with the given key.
The PortletURL implementation 'x-www-form-urlencoded' encodes
all parameter names and values. Developers should not encode them.
A portlet container may prefix the attribute names internally
in order to preserve a unique namespace for the portlet.
Parameters: name - the parameter name Parameters: value - the parameter value exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if name or value are null . |
setParameter | public void setParameter(String name, String[] values)(Code) | | Sets the given String array parameter to this URL.
This method replaces all parameters with the given key.
The PortletURL implementation 'x-www-form-urlencoded' encodes
all parameter names and values. Developers should not encode them.
A portlet container may prefix the attribute names internally
in order to preserve a unique namespace for the portlet.
Parameters: name - the parameter name Parameters: values - the parameter values exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if name or values are null . |
setParameters | public void setParameters(java.util.Map parameters)(Code) | | Sets a parameter map for this URL.
All previously set parameters are cleared.
The PortletURL implementation 'x-www-form-urlencoded' encodes
all parameter names and values. Developers should not encode them.
A portlet container may prefix the attribute names internally,
in order to preserve a unique namespace for the portlet.
Parameters: parameters - Map containing parameter names for the render phase as keys and parameter values as map values. The keys in the parametermap must be of type String. The values in the parameter map must be of typeString array (String[] ). exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if parameters is null , ifany of the key/values in the Map are null , if any of the keys is not a String, or if any of the values is not a String array. |
setPortletMode | public void setPortletMode(PortletMode portletMode) throws PortletModeException(Code) | | Indicates the portlet mode the portlet must be in, if this
portlet URL triggers a request.
A URL can not have more than one portlet mode attached to it.
If more than one portlet mode is set only the last one set
is attached to the URL.
Parameters: portletMode - the portlet mode exception: PortletModeException - if the portlet cannot switch to this mode,because the portal does not support this mode, the portlet has notdeclared in its deployment descriptor that it supports this mode for the current markup,or the current user is not allowed to switch to this mode.The PortletRequest.isPortletModeAllowed() method can be usedto check if the portlet can set a given portlet mode. See Also: PortletRequest.isPortletModeAllowed |
setSecure | public void setSecure(boolean secure) throws PortletSecurityException(Code) | | Indicated the security setting for this URL.
Secure set to true indicates that the portlet requests
a secure connection between the client and the portlet window for
this URL. Secure set to false indicates that the portlet
does not need a secure connection for this URL. If the security is not
set for a URL, it will stay the same as the current request.
Parameters: secure - true, if portlet requests to have a secure connectionbetween its portlet window and the client; false, ifthe portlet does not require a secure connection. throws: PortletSecurityException - if the run-time environment doesnot support the indicated setting |
setWindowState | public void setWindowState(WindowState windowState) throws WindowStateException(Code) | | Indicates the window state the portlet should be in, if this
portlet URL triggers a request.
A URL can not have more than one window state attached to it.
If more than one window state is set only the last one set
is attached to the URL.
Parameters: windowState - the portlet window state exception: WindowStateException - if the portlet cannot switch to this state,because the portal does not support this state, the portlet has not declared in its deployment descriptor that it supports this state, or the currentuser is not allowed to switch to this state.The PortletRequest.isWindowStateAllowed() method can be usedto check if the portlet can set a given window state. See Also: PortletRequest.isWindowStateAllowed |
toString | public String toString()(Code) | | Returns the portlet URL string representation to be embedded in the
markup.
Note that the returned String may not be a valid URL, as it may
be rewritten by the portal/portlet-container before returning the
markup to the client.
