Method Detail

describeTo

public void describeTo(DescriptionReceiver receiver)

Description copied from interface: Describable

Invoked to have the receiver describe itself (largely in terms of properties and values). If the caller does not invoke any methods on the receiver, then the a default description of the caller will be used (based on toString().

Specified by:

describeTo in interface Describable

getAttributeNames

public java.util.List getAttributeNames()

Description copied from interface: AttributeHolder

Returns a list of all known attributes in ascending alphabetical order. May be empty (but won't be null).

Specified by:

getAttributeNames in interface AttributeHolder

getAttribute

public java.lang.Object getAttribute(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: AttributeHolder

Returns the named object, or null if no attribute has been stored with the given name.

Specified by:

getAttribute in interface AttributeHolder

setAttribute

public void setAttribute(java.lang.String name,
                java.lang.Object attribute)

Description copied from interface: AttributeHolder

Updates the attribute, replacing (or removing) its value. For certain implementations, the attribute may need to be serializable (for example, a WebSession attribute in a clustered application).

Specified by:

setAttribute in interface AttributeHolder

Parameters:

name - the name of the attribute to update

attribute - the new value for the attribute, or null to delete the attribute entirely.

getResource

public java.net.URL getResource(java.lang.String path)

Description copied from interface: WebContext

Returns a URL to the resource that is mapped to a specified path. The path must begin with a "/" and is interpreted as relative to the current context root.

Specified by:

getResource in interface WebContext

getInitParameterValue

public java.lang.String getInitParameterValue(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: InitializationParameterHolder

Returns the value of the named parameter, or null if the reciever does not have such a parameter.

Specified by:

getInitParameterValue in interface InitializationParameterHolder

Parameters:

name - the name of the parameter to retrieve

Returns:

the corresponding value, or null

getInitParameterNames

public java.util.List getInitParameterNames()

Description copied from interface: InitializationParameterHolder

Returns a sorted list of the names of all initialization parameters (which may be the empty list).

Specified by:

getInitParameterNames in interface InitializationParameterHolder

Returns:

List of String

getMimeType

public java.lang.String getMimeType(java.lang.String resourcePath)

Description copied from interface: WebContext

Returns the MIME type of the specified file, or null if the MIME type is not known.

Specified by:

getMimeType in interface WebContext

getRealPath

public java.lang.String getRealPath(java.lang.String path)

Description copied from interface: WebContext

Returns a String containing the real path for a given virtual path. For example, the path "/index.html" returns the absolute file path on the server's filesystem would be served by a request for "http://host/contextPath/index.html", where contextPath is the context path of this WebContext.

Specified by:

getRealPath in interface WebContext

Parameters:

path - a String specifying a virtual path

Returns:

a String specifying the real path, or null if the translation cannot be performed

getResourceAsStream

public java.io.InputStream getResourceAsStream(java.lang.String path)

Description copied from interface: WebContext

Returns the resource located at the named path as an InputStream object.

Specified by:

getResourceAsStream in interface WebContext

Parameters:

path - a String specifying the path to the resource

Returns:

the InputStream returned to the servlet, or null if no resource exists at the specified path

getResourcePaths

public java.util.Set getResourcePaths(java.lang.String path)

Description copied from interface: WebContext

Returns a directory-like listing of all the paths to resources within the web application whose longest sub-path matches the supplied path argument. Paths indicating subdirectory paths end with a slash (/). The returned paths are all relative to the root of the web application and have a leading '/'.

Specified by:

getResourcePaths in interface WebContext

Parameters:

path - partial path used to match the resources, which must start with a '/'

Returns:

a Set containing the directory listing, or null if there are no resources in the web application whose path begins with the supplied path.
