public class SessionAttributeModule
extends AbstractInputModule
implements ThreadSafe

SessionAttributeModule accesses session attributes. If the attribute name contains an askerisk "*" this is considered a wildcard and all attributes that would match this wildcard are considered to be part of an array of that name for getAttributeValues. Only one "*" is allowed.

public SessionAttributeModule()
Method Detail

getAttribute

public Object getAttribute(String name,
                           Configuration modeConf,
                           Map objectModel)
                    throws ConfigurationException
Description copied from interface: InputModule
Standard access to an attribute's value. If more than one value exists, the first is returned. If the value does not exist, null is returned. To get all values, use InputModule.getAttributeValues(String, Configuration, Map) or InputModule.getAttributeNames(Configuration, Map) and InputModule.getAttribute(String, Configuration, Map) to get them one by one.

Specified by:
getAttribute in interface InputModule
Overrides:
getAttribute in class AbstractInputModule
Parameters:
name - a String that specifies what the caller thinks would identify an attribute. This is mainly a fallback if no modeConf is present.
modeConf - column's mode configuration from resource description. This argument is optional.
Throws:
ConfigurationException

getAttributeNames

public Iterator getAttributeNames(Configuration modeConf,
                                  Map objectModel)
                           throws ConfigurationException
Description copied from interface: InputModule
Returns an Iterator of String objects containing the names of the attributes available. If no attributes are available, the method returns an empty Iterator.

Specified by:
getAttributeNames in interface InputModule
Overrides:
getAttributeNames in class AbstractInputModule
Parameters:
modeConf - column's mode configuration from resource description. This argument is optional.
Throws:
ConfigurationException

getAttributeValues

public Object[] getAttributeValues(String name,
                                   Configuration modeConf,
                                   Map objectModel)
                            throws ConfigurationException
Description copied from interface: InputModule
Returns an array of String objects containing all of the values the given attribute has, or null if the attribute does not exist. As an alternative, InputModule.getAttributeNames(Configuration, Map) together with InputModule.getAttribute(String, Configuration, Map) can be used to get the values one by one.

Specified by:
getAttributeValues in interface InputModule
Overrides:
getAttributeValues in class AbstractInputModule
Parameters:
name - a String that specifies what the caller thinks would identify an attributes. This is mainly a fallback if no modeConf is present.
modeConf - column's mode configuration from resource description. This argument is optional.
Throws:
ConfigurationException
