public interface UiFrameworkView
extends View

View interface enhanced with some IoC-like capabilities based on the idea that each view is bound the BeanStore and is able to store objects inside of it, access the parent stores etc.

Method Detail

asVaadinComponent

default com.vaadin.ui.Component asVaadinComponent()

Convenience method implementation.

Specified by:

asVaadinComponent in interface View

destroy

default void destroy()

Cleans up the related bean store, un-registers this view from the view registry, detaches the from the parent Vaadin component, recursively destroys the child views.

bindInstance

default <T> void bindInstance(Class<T> type,
                              T instance)

Put an instance into the view's bean storage, making it injectable with ViewComponentProvider.

Type Parameters:

T - type of the shared instance

bindContext

default <T extends ViewContext> T bindContext(Class<? extends T> contextClass)

Create and bind an instance of the view context. The provided argument is typically an interface, whose implementation is auto-generated on the fly. The instance of the view context is the stored in the view's bean storage and share in similar fashion link bindInstance(Class, Object) does.

Type Parameters:

T - type of the view context

bindDatasourceDefinition

default void bindDatasourceDefinition(Object definition)

Shares datasource definition information with the sub-views and components. Datasource definition provides framework with the hints regarding which implementation to choose for the domain-specific interfaces.

DatasourceComponent, DatasourceBundle, DatasourceSupport

create

default <T> T create(WithImplementation<T> definition,
                     Object... args)

Convenience wrapper around ComponentProvider capabilities. Creates and instance of a type specified by a passed WithImplementation instance.

Type Parameters:

T - type of an instance to be created

create

default <T> T create(Class type,
                     Object... args)

Convenience wrapper around ComponentProvider capabilities.

Type Parameters:

T - type of an instance to be created

getViewProvider

default ViewProvider getViewProvider()

Get ViewProvider utility.

getComponentProvider

default info.magnolia.objectfactory.ComponentProvider getComponentProvider()

getCurrentViewReference

default UiContextReference getCurrentViewReference()

accessViewBeanStore

default BeanStore accessViewBeanStore()
