public interface FrontEndActionState
extends ActionStateFacade

Represents an operation on the server called by an action. Optionally may defer operations to the controller. Metafacade interface to be used by AndroMDA cartridges.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
String	getActionMethodName() The method name representing this action state.
List<FrontEndAction>	getContainerActions() The actions that pass through this action state.
List<OperationFacade>	getControllerCalls() All calls deferred to the controller by this action state.
List<FrontEndExceptionHandler>	getExceptions() All exceptions modelled on this action state.
FrontEndForward	getForward() The next transition, there can be only one transition going out of an action state, otherwise decision points should be used (triggers are not supported at the server-side).
List<OperationFacade>	getServiceCalls() All calls deferred to the services by this action state.
boolean	isContainedInFrontEndUseCase() True if this element is contained in a FrontEndUseCase.
boolean	isFrontEndActionStateMetaType() Indicates the metafacade type (used for metafacade mappings).
boolean	isServerSide() Indicates whether or not this front end action state is server side.

Method Detail

isFrontEndActionStateMetaType

boolean isFrontEndActionStateMetaType()

Indicates the metafacade type (used for metafacade mappings).

Returns:

boolean always true

getActionMethodName

String getActionMethodName()

The method name representing this action state.

Returns:

String

getContainerActions

List<FrontEndAction> getContainerActions()

The actions that pass through this action state.

Returns:

List

getControllerCalls

List<OperationFacade> getControllerCalls()

All calls deferred to the controller by this action state.

Returns:

List

getExceptions

List<FrontEndExceptionHandler> getExceptions()

All exceptions modelled on this action state.

Returns:

List

getForward

FrontEndForward getForward()

The next transition, there can be only one transition going out of an action state, otherwise decision points should be used (triggers are not supported at the server-side).

Returns:

FrontEndForward

getServiceCalls

List<OperationFacade> getServiceCalls()

All calls deferred to the services by this action state.

Returns:

List

isContainedInFrontEndUseCase

boolean isContainedInFrontEndUseCase()

True if this element is contained in a FrontEndUseCase.

Returns:

boolean

isServerSide

boolean isServerSide()

Indicates whether or not this front end action state is server side. Pages, for example, are also action states but they return control to the client.

Returns:

boolean
