All Implemented Interfaces:

Content, java.lang.Cloneable

public class ExtendingContentWrapper
extends ContentWrapper

This wrapper allows extending other nodes (mainly useful to extend configurations). A content node can define a nodeData with the name 'extends'. Its value is either an absolute or relative path. The merge is then performed as follows:

• nodeDatas are merged and values are overwritten
• sub content nodes are merged, the original order is guaranteed, new nodes are added at the end of the list

The mechanism supports multiple inheritances as such:

• the node the current node inherits from can again extend a node
• nodes laying deeper in the hierarchy can extend an other node

Constructor Detail

ExtendingContentWrapper

public ExtendingContentWrapper(Content wrappedContent)

ExtendingContentWrapper

protected ExtendingContentWrapper(Content wrappedContent,
                                  Content extendedContent)

Does not support the extends nodedata but chains the two nodes directly. Each node is wrapped internally to ensure that each of them support the extends nodedata for themselves.

Method Detail

isExtending

public boolean isExtending()

getWrappedContent

public Content getWrappedContent()

Overrides:

getWrappedContent in class ContentWrapper

hasContent

public boolean hasContent(java.lang.String name)
                   throws javax.jcr.RepositoryException

Specified by:

hasContent in interface Content

Overrides:

hasContent in class ContentWrapper

Throws:

javax.jcr.RepositoryException - if an error occurs

getContent

public Content getContent(java.lang.String name)
                   throws javax.jcr.RepositoryException

Description copied from interface: Content

Gets the Content node of the current node with the specified name.

Specified by:

getContent in interface Content

Overrides:

getContent in class ContentWrapper

Parameters:

name - of the node acting as Content

Returns:

Content

Throws:

javax.jcr.PathNotFoundException

javax.jcr.RepositoryException - if an error occurs

AccessDeniedException - if the current session does not have sufficient access rights to complete the operation

getChildren

public java.util.Collection<Content> getChildren(Content.ContentFilter filter,
                                                 java.lang.String namePattern,
                                                 java.util.Comparator<Content> orderCriteria)

Overrides:

getChildren in class ContentWrapper

namePattern - ignored if null.

getNodeData

public NodeData getNodeData(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from class: AbstractContent

Returns a NodeData object. If the node data does not exist (respectively if it has no value) an empty representation is returned whose NodeData.isExist() will return false. Delegates to AbstractContent.newNodeDataInstance(String, int, boolean) by setting the type to PropertyType.UNDEFINED. A subclass has to handle this by trying to determine the type if the node data exists. The reason for this is that implementations want to instantiate different node data classes per type

Specified by:

getNodeData in interface Content

Overrides:

getNodeData in class AbstractContent

Returns:

NodeData requested NodeData object

hasNodeData

public boolean hasNodeData(java.lang.String name)
                    throws javax.jcr.RepositoryException

Description copied from class: AbstractContent

Delegates to NodeData.isExist().

Specified by:

hasNodeData in interface Content

Overrides:

hasNodeData in class AbstractContent

Throws:

javax.jcr.RepositoryException - if an error occurs

getNodeDataCollection

public java.util.Collection<NodeData> getNodeDataCollection()

Description copied from interface: Content

Gets all properties bind in NodeData object excluding JCR system properties.

Specified by:

getNodeDataCollection in interface Content

Overrides:

getNodeDataCollection in class AbstractContent

wrap

protected Content wrap(Content node)

Description copied from class: ContentWrapper

Override if a wrapper wants to wrap returned content objects. This method is called by getContent(), getParent(), ... The default implementation does nothing.

Overrides:

wrap in class ContentWrapper
