Package org.apache.tapestry5.annotations

Contains annotations, primarily those used inside component classes as well as a few specific to the tapestry-core services layer.

Annotation Types Summary

Annotation Type	Description
ActivationRequestParameter	Marks a field of a page (not a component) as persistent within the URL, as with a page activation context.
AfterRender	Marker annotation for methods associated with the AfterRender phase.
AfterRenderBody	Corresponds to BeforeRenderBody, allowing additional markup after rendering the body of a component, but before rendering the rest of the component's template.
AfterRenderTemplate	Corresponds to BeforeRenderTemplate, allowing additional markup after rendering the component's template.
BeforeRenderBody	Marks methods to be invoked when the component rendering state machine hits the point in the component's template where the body element occurs.
BeforeRenderTemplate	Associated with components that have a template, this phase is invoked to allow the component to decorate its template with additional markup.
BeginRender	Marker annotation for methods that should be executed at the start of rendering the component.
BindParameter	Designates a field in a mixin which is bound to the parameter of the containing component corresponding to the value of the annotation.
Cached	Indicates that a method should only be evaluated once per request and the result cached.
CleanupRender	Marker annotation for component methods associated with the terminal phase for the component rendering state machine.
Component	Used to define an embedded component within another component.
ContentType	An annotation on a page component used to identify the content type the page returns.
DisableStrictChecks	Disables strict checks Tapestry-IoC or Tapestry may perform on methods.
DiscardAfter	Marks a method of a page or a component to discard all persistent field changes.
Environmental	Defines a field of a component class that is replaced at runtime with a read-only value obtained from the Environment service.
Events	Annotation applied to components to document what events a component may trigger.
HeartbeatDeferred	Marks a component method as deferred until the end of the Heartbeat.
Id	Optional annotation, used with Inject, which exists to provide the id of an object when it can not be determined by other means (such as from the field name).
Import	Annotations to control the importing of JavaScript stacks and libraries as well as stylesheets.
InjectComponent	Allows components defined in the template to be injected as read-only properties.
InjectContainer	Used to inject the component which contains this component.
InjectPage	Allows a a page (really, the root component of the page) to be injected into another component as a read-only field.
Log	Marker annotation for component methods to enable debug-level logging.
Meta	Allows for the specification of per-component meta-data.
Mixin	Defines an implementation mixin for a component.
MixinAfter	A marker annotation applied to a mixin to indicate that the mixin's render state behavior is deferred until after the the behavior of the component to which the mixin is attached.
MixinClasses	Used to attach one or more instance mixins to an embedded component.
Mixins	Used to attach one ore more instance mixin to an embedded component.
OnEvent	Marks a method as a handler for a client side event.
PageActivationContext	Annotation for a field for which the page activation context handlers (onActivate and onPassivate) should be created.
PageAttached	Method annotation used for methods that should be invoked when the page is first attached to a request.
PageDetached	Method annotation used for methods that should be invoked when the page is detached at the end of a request, before it is returned to the page pool for later reuse.
PageLoaded	Method annotation used for methods that should be invoked once the page is fully loaded.
PageReset	Marker annotation for a method that should be invoked when a page is reset.
Parameter	Annotation placed on a field to indicate that it is, in fact, a component parameter.
Path	Used in conjunction with the Inject annotation to inject an Asset based on a path.
Persist	Identifies a field as persistent, meaning its value persists from one request to the next.
Property	Annotation for fields for which accessor methods (getters and setters) should be created.
PublishEvent	Marks an event handler method to be published as an event to be called in JavaScript through the t5/core/ajax function when the options parameter has an element attribute.
RequestParameter	Annotation that may be placed on parameters of event handler methods.
Retain	Deprecated. This rarely used annotation is likely to cause threading issues starting in Tapestry 5.2 (which no longer pools pages but uses shared instances with externalized mutable state)
Secure	A marker annotation that indicates that the page in question may only be accessed via HTTPS.
Service	Used in conjunction with the Inject annotation to identify a service by name and not by type.
SessionAttribute	Used to map a property of a page or component to value stored in session.
SessionState	Marker annotation for a property that is a session state object (SSO) as controlled by the ApplicationStateManager.
SetupRender	Marker annotation for methods that should be executed during the SetupRender phase.
SupportsInformalParameters	Used to identify a component that can support informal parameters.
UnknownActivationContextCheck	A marker annotation that indicates that the page in question may only be accessed with a exact activation context.
WhitelistAccessOnly	Identifies a page that should only be accessed from clients on the whitelist.
