Enum InterceptionType

java.lang.Object
  extended by java.lang.Enum<InterceptionType>
      extended by org.jboss.seam.InterceptionType
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<InterceptionType>

public enum InterceptionType
extends Enum<InterceptionType>

Rules for when Seam will intercept invocations upon a component to perform bijection, validation, context demarcation, etc. For JavaBeans and session beans, the default interception type is INVOKE_APPLICATION. All entity beans have interception type NEVER.

Enum Constant Summary
AFTER_RESTORE_VIEW
          Seam intercepts any invocations that occur after the restore view phase, or any invocation that occurs outside the context of JSF
AFTER_UPDATE_MODEL_VALUES
          Seam intercepts any invocations that occur after the update model values phase, or any invocation that occurs outside the context of JSF
ALWAYS
          Seam always intercepts invocations upon the component (default for session bean and JavaBean components)
INVOKE_APPLICATION
          Seam intercepts invocations upon the component only during the invoke application phase, or invocations that occur outside the context of JSF
NEVER
          Seam never intercepts invocations upon the component (default for entity bean components)

Enum Constant Detail

NEVER

public static final InterceptionType NEVER
Seam never intercepts invocations upon the component (default for entity bean components)


AFTER_RESTORE_VIEW

public static final InterceptionType AFTER_RESTORE_VIEW
Seam intercepts any invocations that occur after the restore view phase, or any invocation that occurs outside the context of JSF


AFTER_UPDATE_MODEL_VALUES

public static final InterceptionType AFTER_UPDATE_MODEL_VALUES
Seam intercepts any invocations that occur after the update model values phase, or any invocation that occurs outside the context of JSF


INVOKE_APPLICATION

public static final InterceptionType INVOKE_APPLICATION
Seam intercepts invocations upon the component only during the invoke application phase, or invocations that occur outside the context of JSF


ALWAYS

public static final InterceptionType ALWAYS

Method Detail

values

public static final InterceptionType[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they're declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
for(InterceptionType c : InterceptionType.values())
        System.out.println(c);

Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they're declared

valueOf

public static InterceptionType valueOf(String name)
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:
the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

isActive

public boolean isActive()
