Class MultiViewProcessor

java.lang.Object
  com.zphinx.spine.core.viewprocessors.ViewProcessor
      com.zphinx.spine.core.viewprocessors.MultiViewProcessor

public class MultiViewProcessor
extends ViewProcessor

MultiViewProcessor processes invocations which require multiple delegates and DataTransferObjects while using a single ViewProcessor.

It allows the programmer access to more than one delegate or process flow from the same ViewProcessor whilst possessing the ability to use an optional builder to create and run generic methods in each of the generated SpineBeans.

public MultiViewProcessor()

Method Detail

processNavigation

public int processNavigation(ResultObject result)

Processes the navigation rules for this processor

Specified by:

processNavigation in class ViewProcessor

Parameters:

result - The resultObject instance to be parsed for information

Returns:

An int specifying the navigation to return to user

processData

public ResultObject processData(DataTransferObject dto,
                                Object obj,
                                DAOInput daoConstructor,
                                int operation,
                                int pageIndex)

Calls the methods of this ViewProcessor,creates and sends the DataTransferAssembler to the business layer

Parameters:

dto - The DataTransferObject used to create a DataTransferAssembler

obj - The object used to initialize this transaction, usually a dataSource when a database proxy is in use

daoConstructor - The construct object used to instantiate a dao

operation - The operation to call within the dto

pageIndex - The int representing the position of the DAO defination in spine.xml

Returns:

An instance of the ResultObject obtained from the bussiness layer

processData

public ResultObject processData(DataTransferObject dto,
                                Object obj,
                                DAOInput daoConstructor,
                                int operation)

Deprecated.

Processes the invocation to the business tier, throws a runtime exception asking the user to call processData(DataTransferObject, Object, DAOInput, int, int)

Overrides:

processData in class ViewProcessor

Parameters:

dto - The DataTransferObject used to create a DataTransferAssembler

obj - The object used to initialize this transaction, usually a dataSource when a DataBaseProxy is in use

daoConstructor - The construct object used to instantiate a dao

operation - The operation to call within the dto

Returns:

An instance of the ResultObject obtained from the bussiness layer

delegateFactoryAndRun

public ResultObject delegateFactoryAndRun(CommandComponent command,
                                          int pageIndex)

Creates and initializes a suitable AbstractBusinessDelegate then calls the run method of the instantiated Business Delegate.

Parameters:

command - The DataTransferAssembler used by this processor

pageIndex - The int representing the position of the DAO defination in spine.xml

Returns:

A DataTransferAssembler in the form of a ResultObject

delegateFactory

public AbstractBusinessDelegate delegateFactory(CommandComponent command,
                                                int pageIndex)
                                         throws SpineException

Creates and initializes a suitable AbstractBusinessDelegate

Parameters:

command - The DataTransferAssembler used by this processor

pageIndex - The int representing the position of the DAO defination in spine.xml

Returns:

The required AbstractBusinessDelegate Object

Throws:

SpineException

findBuilder

protected Object findBuilder(String delegateSubClass)

Gets the builder for the named BusinessDelegate i.e the delegateSubClass

Parameters:

delegateSubClass - The full class name of the delegate subclass defined as subClass in configuration

Returns:

The AbstractBuilder Object which was defined in configuration
