binding facility and the implementation of the createConverter()
method, is now an implementation detail.public class ConverterTag extends TagSupport
ConverterTag is a base class for all JSP custom actions
that create and register a Converter
instance on the
ValueHolder
associated with our most immediate
surrounding instance of a tag whose implementation class is a subclass
of UIComponentTag
. To avoid creating duplicate instances when
a page is redisplayed, creation and registration of a Converter
occurs only if the corresponding UIComponent
was
created (by the owning UIComponentTag
) during the execution of the
current page.
This class may be used directly to implement a generic converter
registration tag (based on the converter-id specified by the
converterId
attribute), or as a base class for tag
instances that support specific Converter
subclasses. This
converterId
attribute must refer to one of the well
known converter-ids, or a custom converter-id as defined in a
faces-config.xml
file.
Subclasses of this class must implement the
createConverter()
method, which creates and returns a
Converter
instance. Any configuration properties that specify
behavior of this Converter
must have been set by the
createConverter()
method. Generally, this occurs
by copying corresponding attribute values on the tag instance.
This tag creates no output to the page currently being created. It
is used solely for the side effect of Converter
creation.
