Method Detail

getWrapped

public abstract Resource getWrapped()

Description copied from interface: FacesWrapper

A class that implements this interface uses this method to return an instance of the class being wrapped.

Specified by:

getWrapped in interface FacesWrapper<Resource>

Returns:

the instance that we are wrapping.

getInputStream

public InputStream getInputStream()
                           throws IOException

The default behavior of this method is to call Resource.getInputStream() on the wrapped ResourceHandler object.

Specified by:

getInputStream in class Resource

Returns:

an InputStream containing the bytes of the resource.

Any EL expressions present in the resource must be evaluated before serving the bytes of the resource. Note that due to browser and server caching, EL expressions in a resource file will generally only be evaluated once, when the resource is first served up. Therefore, using EL expressions that refer to per-request data is not advisable since this data can become stale.

Throws:

IOException - if the current request is not a resource request.

getURL

public URL getURL()

The default behavior of this method is to call Resource.getURL() on the wrapped ResourceHandler object.

Specified by:

getURL in class Resource

Returns:

Return an actual URL instance that refers to this resource instance.

getResponseHeaders

public Map<String,String> getResponseHeaders()

The default behavior of this method is to call Resource.getResponseHeaders() on the wrapped ResourceHandler object.

Specified by:

getResponseHeaders in class Resource

Returns:

a mutable Map<String, String> of headers that will be included with the response.

getRequestPath

public String getRequestPath()

The default behavior of this method is to call Resource.getRequestPath() on the wrapped ResourceHandler object.

Specified by:

getRequestPath in class Resource

Returns:

the path to this resource, intended to be included in the encoded view that is sent to the browser when sending a faces response.

userAgentNeedsUpdate

public boolean userAgentNeedsUpdate(FacesContext context)

The default behavior of this method is to call Resource.userAgentNeedsUpdate(javax.faces.context.FacesContext) on the wrapped ResourceHandler object.

Specified by:

userAgentNeedsUpdate in class Resource

Returns:

true or false depending on whether or not the user-agent needs an update of this resource.
