Enum EntryPointType

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<EntryPointType>

    public enum EntryPointType
    extends java.lang.Enum<EntryPointType>
    Enumeration that indicates a JWt entrypoint type.

    An entry point binds a behavior to a public URL. Only the wthttpd connector currently supports multiple entry points.

      • Application

        public static final EntryPointType Application
        Specifies a full-screen application.

        A full screen application manages the entire browser window and provides its own HTML page.

        See Also:
        WApplication.getRoot()
      • WidgetSet

        public static final EntryPointType WidgetSet
        Specifies an application that manages one or more widgets.

        A widget set application is part of an existing HTML page. One or more HTML elements in that web page may be bound to widgets managed by the application.

        The application presents itself as a JavaScript file, and therefore should be embedded in the web page using a <script> tag, from within the <body> (since it needs access to the <body>).

        Note: A WidgetSet application requires JavaScript support

        See Also:
        WApplication.bindWidget(WWidget widget, String domId)
      • StaticResource

        public static final EntryPointType StaticResource
        Specifies a static resource.

        A static resource binds a WResource to a public URL, and is not bound to a specific session.

    • Method Detail

      • values

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

        public static EntryPointType valueOf​(java.lang.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:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
      • getValue

        public int getValue()
        Returns the numerical representation of this enum.
