Class HtmlInterpreter

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.XMLElement.Interpreter<java.lang.String>

    public class HtmlInterpreter
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.XMLElement.Interpreter<java.lang.String>
    This is the most generally useful interpreter, and the most likely to be used by a custom parser when calling XMLElement.consumeInnerHtml(com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.XMLElement.Interpreter<java.lang.String>).
    • Assigns computed values to element attributes (e.g. class="{style.pretty}")
    • Generates fields to hold named dom elements (e.g. <div gwt:field="importantDiv">)
    • Turns <ui:msg> and <ui:attr> elements into methods on a generated Messages interface
    • Fails if any element encountered is a widget

      java.lang.String interpretElement​(com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.XMLElement elem)
      Given an XMLElement, return its filtered value.
      static HtmlInterpreter newInterpreterForUiObject​(com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.UiBinderWriter writer, java.lang.String uiExpression)
      A convenience factory method for the most common use of this class, to work with HTML that will eventually be rendered under a UIObject (or really, any object that responds to getElement()).

      • HtmlInterpreter

        public HtmlInterpreter​(com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.UiBinderWriter writer,
                               java.lang.String ancestorExpression,
                               com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.XMLElement.Interpreter<java.lang.String> messageInterpreter)
        Rather than using this constructor, you probably want to use the newInterpreterForUiObject(com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.UiBinderWriter, java.lang.String) factory method.
        Parameters:
        ancestorExpression - An expression that can be evaluated at runtime to find an Element that will be an ancestor of all Elements generated from the interpreted HTML.
        messageInterpreter - an interpreter to handle msg and ph elements, typically an instance of HtmlMessageInterpreter. This interpreter gets last crack

      • newInterpreterForUiObject

        public static HtmlInterpreter newInterpreterForUiObject​(com.google.gwt.uibinder.rebind.UiBinderWriter writer,
                                                                java.lang.String uiExpression)
        A convenience factory method for the most common use of this class, to work with HTML that will eventually be rendered under a UIObject (or really, any object that responds to getElement()). Uses an instance of HtmlMessageInterpreter to process message elements.
        Parameters:
        uiExpression - An expression that can be evaluated at runtime to find an object whose getElement() method can be called to get an ancestor of all Elements generated from the interpreted HTML.
