Interface LayoutNodeCopyCreationContext<T extends LayoutNode>

All Superinterfaces:

CopyCreationContext<T>, CreationContext

public interface LayoutNodeCopyCreationContext<T extends LayoutNode>
extends CopyCreationContext<T>

Creation context for copying a layout node. Controller implementations will copy the aspects of the given layout node.
A LayoutNodeCopyCreationContext allows to retrieve a UniqueNameStrategy which manages the strategy how to proceed with unique names of new nodes.

Since:

8.5

Method Detail

getSourceClass

java.lang.Class<? extends LayoutNode> getSourceClass()

Returns the class object for the source node's LayoutNode class. In other words the return value of this method can be used to pass in to the controllers com.ibm.portal.ModelController.create(Class, CreationContext) method ().
In particular this method returns:

• java.lang.Class if the source node is a LayoutControl
• java.lang.Class if the source node is a LayoutContainer

Returns:

The source node's layout node class

getSourceLayoutModel

LayoutModel<T> getSourceLayoutModel()

Returns the source LayoutModel in which the template (source) node can be found.

Returns:

The source content model.

getSourcePortletModel

PortletModel getSourcePortletModel()

Returns the source PortletModel for the template (source) layout node.

Returns:

The source portlet model.

getUniqueNameStrategy

UniqueNameStrategy getUniqueNameStrategy()

Returns the UniqueNameStrategy

Returns:

the strategy for copying unique names or null if the creation context does not have a UniqueNameStrategy
