Constructor Detail

FormatDate

public FormatDate()

Builds a new FormatDate CSS function.

Method Detail

getName

public String getName()

Returns the name of the function that will be known in the style sheet.

Specified by:

getName in class IlvCSSFunction

getDelimiters

public String getDelimiters()

Returns the delimiters of the function parameters. It is strongly recommended to return at least the comma (","). The default implementation returns ",".

Warning: css functions are processed inside an expression module which evaluates arithmetic operations before breaking the argument according to the delimiters. For example if "+" is a delimiter, the argument "3+1" will be evaluated to "4" instead of two arguments (3,1).

Overrides:

getDelimiters in class IlvCSSFunction

Returns:

A string containing all the accepted delimiters. A null or empty return value means there is no delimiter, so all the parameters are returned as a single token.

call

public Object call(Object[] args,
                   Class type,
                   ilog.views.util.css.IlvCSSModel model,
                   Object node,
                   Object target,
                   Object closure)

Calls the function.

Specified by:

call in class IlvCSSFunction

Parameters:

args - The parameters of the function.

type - The expected returned type, which may be null. It is wise to return an object compatible with the expected type, or a String.

model - The current model. Usually the model comes from the engine, but there are some situations where it is a new model.

node - The current node. This is the current model object being called on. Inside a @# construct, node represents the parent of the fake node indeed used to process the @# construct, i.e. the real node of interest.

target - The current rendered object being called on.

closure - An object set by IlvCSSBeans.setFunctionClosure(java.lang.Object)

Returns:

The value computed by this function.

getShortDescription

public String getShortDescription()

Returns a short description of the function. This description is used for instance in the expression editor of the customizers, to describe the function proposed to the user. The description should be localized to the locale returned by IlvLocaleUtil.getCurrentLocale().

Overrides:

getShortDescription in class IlvCSSFunction
