isModal

public boolean isModal()

Checks if this form item is modal. This causes all grammars to be disabled except the ones defined in the current form item.

resetEventCounter

public final void resetEventCounter()

Reset the event counter.

Specified by:

resetEventCounter in interface EventCountable

getPromptCount

public final int getPromptCount()

Retrieves the value of the prompt counter.

Specified by:

getPromptCount in interface PromptCountable

Returns:

Value of the prompt counter.

incrementPromptCount

public final void incrementPromptCount()

Increments the prompt counter.

Specified by:

incrementPromptCount in interface PromptCountable

resetPromptCount

public final void resetPromptCount()

Resets the prompt counter.

Specified by:

resetPromptCount in interface PromptCountable

getEventCount

public final int getEventCount(java.lang.String type)

Retrieve the counter for the given event type.

type - Event type.

Returns:

Count for the given event type.

getShadowVarContainerName

protected final java.lang.String getShadowVarContainerName()

Retrieves the name of the corresponding shadow var container name.

Returns:

Name of the shadow var container.

Since:

0.3.1

getFilledElements

public final java.util.Collection<org.jvoicexml.xml.vxml.Filled> getFilledElements()

init

public void init(DataModel model)
          throws SemanticError,
                 BadFetchError

Initializes this form item.

Specified by:

init in interface FormItem

Parameters:

model - the employed data model

Throws:

SemanticError - error initializing this form item

BadFetchError - error initializing this form item

getFormItemVariable

public final java.lang.Object getFormItemVariable()

Retrieves the form item variable.

Each form has an associated form item variable. which by default is set to null when the form is entered. This form item variable will contain the result of interpreting the form item. An input item's form variable can be given a name using the name attribute or left nameless in which case an internal name is generated.

Specified by:

getFormItemVariable in interface FormItem

Returns:

retrieves the value of the associated variable in the DataModel

setFormItemVariable

public int setFormItemVariable(java.lang.Object value)
                        throws SemanticError

Sets the value of the form item variable.

Specified by:

setFormItemVariable in interface FormItem

Parameters:

value - new value for the form item variable.

Returns:

0 if setting the form item variable was successful

Throws:

SemanticError - error setting the value

getName

public final java.lang.String getName()

Retrieves the name of this FormItem..

Specified by:

getName in interface FormItem

Returns:

Name of a dialog scoped form item variable.

evaluateExpression

public final java.lang.Object evaluateExpression(DataModel model)
                                          throws SemanticError

Retrieves the evaluated expr attribute.

Specified by:

evaluateExpression in interface FormItem

Parameters:

model - the data model to use for evaluation

Returns:

evaluated expression of the expr attribute.

Throws:

SemanticError - error evaluating the expr attribute.

evaluateCondition

public boolean evaluateCondition()
                          throws SemanticError

An expression to evaluate in conjunction with the test of the form item variable. If absent, this defaults to true, or in the case of <initial>, a test to see if any input item variable has been filled in.

Specified by:

evaluateCondition in interface FormItem

Returns:

true if the cond attribute of the form item evaluates to true.

Throws:

SemanticError - error evaluating the cond attribute.

isSelectable

public boolean isSelectable()
                     throws SemanticError

Guard conditions, which governs whether or not this form item can be selected by the form interpretation algorithm.

This default guard condition just tests to see if the form item variable has a value. If it does, this form item will not be visited.

Specified by:

isSelectable in interface FormItem

Returns:

true if the form item's variable has no value.

Throws:

SemanticError - error evaluating the cond condition.
