Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
EXECUTE_LIFECYCLE Hint that indicates that the visit is being performed as part of lifecycle phase execution and as such phase-specific actions (initialization) may be taken.
SKIP_ITERATION Hint that indicates that the visit should traverse only full component instances and not "virtual" ones like UIData rows and so on.
SKIP_TRANSIENT Hint that indicates that only non-transient subtrees should be visited.
SKIP_UNRENDERED Hint that indicates that only the rendered subtree should be visited.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
static VisitHint	valueOf(String name) Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static VisitHint[]	values() Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Method Detail

values

public static VisitHint[] 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 (VisitHint c : VisitHint.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static VisitHint valueOf(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:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
