All Implemented Interfaces:

Component, LogEnabled, Serviceable, ThreadSafe, Action

public class ResourceExistsAction
extends ServiceableAction
implements ThreadSafe

This action simply checks to see if a resource identified by the src sitemap attribute exists or not. The action returns empty Map if resource exists, null otherwise.

Instead of src attribute, source can be specified using parameter named url (this is old syntax, should be removed soon).

NOTE: ResourceExistsSelector should be preferred to this component, as the semantics of a Selector better matches the supplied functionality.

Description copied from interface: Action

Controls the processing against some values of the Dictionary objectModel and returns a Map object with values used in subsequent sitemap substitution patterns. NOTE: This interface is designed so that implentations can be ThreadSafe. When an action is ThreadSafe, only one instance serves all requests : this reduces memory usage and avoids pooling.

Specified by:

act in interface Action

resolver - The SourceResolver in charge

objectModel - The Map with object of the calling environment which can be used to select values this controller may need (ie Request, Response).

src - A source String to the Action

parameters - The Parameters for this invocation

Returns:

Map The returned Map object with sitemap substitution values which can be used in subsequent elements attributes like src= using a xpath like expression: src="mydir/{myval}/foo" If the return value is null the processing inside the element of the sitemap will be skipped.

Throws:

Exception - Indicates something is totally wrong
