Method Detail

skdappletevent

public int skdappletevent()

skdappletevent is a means for the server code to dispatch events to the applet, where the applet can choose to listen for specific events and respond to them accordingly. The Structore of an applet event will include an event parameter called 'skdappletevent_targeteventname' that will contain the name of the event to send to the applet. The event's getValue() will contain the payload. Since this has to cross javascript boundaries, the event data will be Serialized and then Base64 encoded when passed to the Applet. The applet will Base64 decode the message and unserialize the data before dispatching it to the event listeners. The Applet must define a method called handleServerEvent(String name, String base64data) as the entry point for handling the message.

Returns:

EVENT_HANDLED

getAppletEventName

public java.lang.String getAppletEventName()

Return the applet event name or null if there isn't a pending event

Returns:

getEncodedAppletEventData

public java.lang.String getEncodedAppletEventData()

Returns the event data as Serialized data that is Base64 encoded and then URLEncoded to ensure that it can pass safely over javascript to the applet. The Applet will Url decode and Base64 the object stream and convert it into the Java object to be passed as the event args.

Returns:

replaceSingleQuotes

public static java.lang.String replaceSingleQuotes(java.lang.String replaceString)

Replaces single quotes with two single quotes.

clearAppletEvent

public void clearAppletEvent()

Clear the pending event data.

public boolean hasAppletEvent()

Returns true if there is a pending event that the renderer needs to send to the applet

Returns:

Overridden to capture structureChangedEvent The applet must render with a delay

Specified by:
