Method Detail

writeModel

public static void writeModel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
              javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
              Class<?> clazz,
              OutputFormat format)
                       throws IOException

Instrospects the provided class, creates a model object (JS code) and writes it into the response. Creates compressed JS code.

Parameters:

request - the http servlet request

response - the http servlet response

clazz - class that the generator should introspect

format - specifies which code (ExtJS or Touch) the generator should create.

Throws:

IOException

writeModel

public static void writeModel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
              javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
              Class<?> clazz,
              OutputFormat format,
              boolean debug)
                       throws IOException

Instrospects the provided class, creates a model object (JS code) and writes it into the response.

Parameters:

request - the http servlet request

response - the http servlet response

clazz - class that the generator should introspect

format - specifies which code (ExtJS or Touch) the generator should create

debug - if true the generator creates the output in pretty format, false the output is compressed

Throws:

IOException

writeModel

public static void writeModel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
              javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
              ModelBean model,
              OutputFormat format)
                       throws IOException

Creates a model object (JS code) based on the provided ModelBean and writes it into the response. Creates compressed JS code.

Parameters:

request - the http servlet request

response - the http servlet response

model - ModelBean describing the model to be generated

format - specifies which code (ExtJS or Touch) the generator should create.

Throws:

IOException

writeModel

public static void writeModel(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
              javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response,
              ModelBean model,
              OutputFormat format,
              boolean debug)
                       throws IOException

Creates a model object (JS code) based on the provided ModelBean and writes it into the response.

Parameters:

request - the http servlet request

response - the http servlet response

model - ModelBean describing the model to be generated

format - specifies which code (ExtJS or Touch) the generator should create.

debug - if true the generator creates the output in pretty format, false the output is compressed

Throws:

IOException

createModel

public static ModelBean createModel(Class<?> clazz)

Instrospects the provided class and creates a ModelBean instance. A program could customize this and call generateJavascript(ModelBean, OutputFormat, boolean) or writeModel(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse, ModelBean, OutputFormat) to create JS code.

Parameters:

clazz - the model will be created based on this class.

Returns:

a instance of ModelBean that describes the provided class and can be used for Javascript generation.

generateJavascript

public static String generateJavascript(Class<?> clazz,
                        OutputFormat format,
                        boolean debug)

Instrospects the provided class, creates a model object (JS code) and returns it.

Parameters:

clazz - class that the generator should introspect

format - specifies which code (ExtJS or Touch) the generator should create

debug - if true the generator creates the output in pretty format, false the output is compressed

Returns:

the generated model object (JS code)

generateJavascript

public static String generateJavascript(ModelBean model,
                        OutputFormat format,
                        boolean debug)

Creates JS code based on the provided ModelBean in the specified OutputFormat. Code can be generated in pretty or compressed format.

Parameters:

model - generate code based on this ModelBean

format - specifies which code (ExtJS or Touch) the generator should create

debug - if true the generator creates the output in pretty format, false the output is compressed

Returns:

the generated model object (JS code)
