All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable, DirectiveConstants

public class Macro
extends Directive

Macro implements the macro definition directive of VTL. example: #macro( isnull $i ) #if( $i ) $i #end #end This object is used at parse time to mainly process and register the macro. It is used inline in the parser when processing a directive.

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	checkArgs(ArrayList<Integer> argtypes, Token t, String templateName) Check the argument types of a macro call, called by the parser to do validation

Method Detail

getName

public String getName()

Return name of this directive.

Specified by:

getName in class Directive

Returns:

The name of this directive.

getType

public int getType()

Return type of this directive.

Specified by:

getType in class Directive

Returns:

The type of this directive.

isScopeProvided

public boolean isScopeProvided()

Since this class does no processing of content, there is never a need for an internal scope.

Overrides:

isScopeProvided in class Directive

Returns:

true if there will be a scope control injected into the context when rendering this directive.

render

public boolean render(InternalContextAdapter context,
                      Writer writer,
                      Node node)
               throws IOException

render() doesn't do anything in the final output rendering. There is no output from a #macro() directive.

Specified by:

render in class Directive

Parameters:

context -

writer -

node -

Returns:

True if the directive rendered successfully.

Throws:

IOException

init

public void init(RuntimeServices rs,
                 InternalContextAdapter context,
                 Node node)
          throws TemplateInitException

Description copied from class: Directive

How this directive is to be initialized.

Overrides:

init in class Directive

Throws:

TemplateInitException

See Also:

Directive.init(org.apache.velocity.runtime.RuntimeServices, org.apache.velocity.context.InternalContextAdapter, org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.Node)

checkArgs

public void checkArgs(ArrayList<Integer> argtypes,
                      Token t,
                      String templateName)
               throws ParseException

Check the argument types of a macro call, called by the parser to do validation

Overrides:

checkArgs in class Directive

Parameters:

argtypes - type, Array of argument types of each argument to the directive for example ParserTreeConstants.JJTWORD

t - token of directive

templateName - the name of the template this directive is referenced in.

Throws:

ParseException

macroToString

public static StringBuilder macroToString(StringBuilder buf,
                                          List<Macro.MacroArg> macroArgs)

For debugging purposes. Formats the arguments from argArray and appends them to buf.

Parameters:

buf - A StringBuilder. If null, a new StringBuilder is allocated.

macroArgs - Array of macro arguments, containing the #macro() arguments and default values. the 0th is the name.

Returns:

A StringBuilder containing the formatted arguments. If a StringBuilder has passed in as buf, this method returns it.
