Interface FacetsFacet

All Superinterfaces:

Facet, MultipleValueFacet

All Known Implementing Classes:

FacetsFacetAbstract, FacetsFacetAnnotation

public interface FacetsFacet
extends MultipleValueFacet

Indicates that this class has additional arbitrary facets, to be processed.

Corresponds to the @Facets annotation in the applib.

This Facet allows the FacetFactory(s) that will create those Facets to be accessed. Which, admittedly, is rather confusing.

Method Detail

facetFactories

java.lang.Class<? extends FacetFactory>[] facetFactories()
