findUIOutputConverter

public static Converter findUIOutputConverter(FacesContext facesContext,
 UIOutput component)

getConvertedUISelectManyValue

public static Object getConvertedUISelectManyValue(FacesContext facesContext,
 UISelectMany component,
 String[] submittedValue)
                                            throws ConverterException

Throws:

ConverterException

public static Object getConvertedUISelectManyValue(FacesContext facesContext,
 UISelectMany component,
 String[] submittedValue,
 boolean considerValueType)
                                            throws ConverterException

Gets the converted value of a UISelectMany component. If the considerValueType is true, this method will also consider the valueType attribute of Tomahawk UISelectMany components.

Parameters:

facesContext -

component -

submittedValue -

considerValueType -

Returns:

Throws:

ConverterException

getClassFromAttribute

public static Class<?> getClassFromAttribute(FacesContext facesContext,
 Object attribute)
                                      throws FacesException

Gets a Class object from a given component attribute. The attribute can be a ValueExpression (that evaluates to a String or a Class) or a String (that is a fully qualified Java class name) or a Class object.

Parameters:

facesContext -

attribute -

Returns:

Throws:

FacesException - if the value is a String and the represented class cannot be found

public static Converter getValueTypeConverter(FacesContext facesContext,
 UISelectMany component)

Uses the valueType attribute of the given UISelectMany component to get a by-type converter.

Parameters:

facesContext -

component -

Returns:

getSelectItemsValueConverter

public static Converter getSelectItemsValueConverter(Iterator<SelectItem> iterator,
 FacesContext facesContext)

Iterates through the SelectItems with the given Iterator and tries to obtain a by-class-converter based on the Class of SelectItem.getValue().

Parameters:

iterator -

facesContext -

Returns:

The first suitable Converter for the given SelectItems or null.

getConvertedStringValue

public static String getConvertedStringValue(FacesContext context,
 UIComponent component,
 Converter converter,
 Object value)

Convenient utility method that returns the currently given value as String, using the given converter. Especially usefull for dealing with primitive types.
