Interface RequestStorable

  • All Superinterfaces:
    EntityProvider
    public interface RequestStorable
extends EntityProvider
    Indicates that this entity provider is aware of the requests and can get to the stored values in the request or can store its own, this allows the entity provider to get hold of information from the request at any time
    This is primarily intended to provide access to request data while operating inside the entity provider without depending on servlet knowledge
    This provides access to the special indicator values which can be used to see what kind of request is operating and get information about it, see the RequestStorage object for more info
    If you need to get to the servlet data see RequestAware and RequestInterceptor
