Is there any way to get a "Generator" which would be just like this ajax category selector ?I would like to use it in the web-client-config-custom.xml …I tried designing it, but I failed.Here is what I did (from various classes, like CategorySelectorGenerator - the ugly one-, and AjaxTagPickerGenerator …)
public class AjaxCategoryPickerGenerator extends BaseComponentGenerator
{
public UIComponent generate(FacesContext context, String id)
{
UIComponent component = context.getApplication().
createComponent("org.alfresco.faces.AjaxCategoryPicker");
FacesHelper.setupComponentId(context, component, id);
return component;
}
@Override
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
protected UIComponent createComponent(FacesContext context, UIPropertySheet propertySheet,
PropertySheetItem item)
{
// the category selector component is used whatever mode the property sheet is in
return generate(context, item.getName());
}
@Override
protected void setupMandatoryValidation(FacesContext context, UIPropertySheet propertySheet,
PropertySheetItem item, UIComponent component, boolean realTimeChecking, String idSuffix)
{
if (component instanceof UIMultiValueEditor)
{
// Override the setup of the mandatory validation
// so we can send the _current_value id suffix.
// We also enable real time so the page load
// check disables the ok button if necessary, as the user
// adds or removes items from the multi value list the
// page will be refreshed and therefore re-check the status.
super.setupMandatoryValidation(context, propertySheet, item,
component, true, "_current_value");
}
else
{
// Override the setup of the mandatory validation
// so we can send the _selected id suffix.
// We also enable real time so the page load check disabled
// the ok button if necessary, as the control is used the
// page will be refreshed and therefore re-check the status.
super.setupMandatoryValidation(context, propertySheet, item,
component, true, "_selected");
}
}
@Override
protected ControlType getControlType()
{
return ControlType.SELECTOR;
}
@Override
protected UIComponent setupMultiValuePropertyIfNecessary(
FacesContext context, UIPropertySheet propertySheet,
PropertySheetItem property, PropertyDefinition propertyDef,
UIComponent component)
{
return component;
}
}
