Field Detail

areaBreak

protected AreaBreak areaBreak

Constructor Detail

AreaBreakRenderer

public AreaBreakRenderer(AreaBreak areaBreak)

Creates an AreaBreakRenderer.

Parameters:

areaBreak - the AreaBreak that will be rendered by this object

Method Detail

addChild

public void addChild(IRenderer renderer)

Throws an UnsupportedOperationException because instances of this class are only used for terminating the current content area.

Specified by:

addChild in interface IRenderer

Parameters:

renderer - a child to be added

layout

public LayoutResult layout(LayoutContext layoutContext)

Description copied from interface: IRenderer

This method simulates positioning of the renderer, including all of its children, and returns the LayoutResult, representing the layout result, including occupied area, status, i.e. if there was enough place to fit the renderer subtree, etc. LayoutResult can be extended to return custom layout results for custom elements, e.g. TextRenderer uses TextLayoutResult as its result. This method can be called standalone to learn how much area the renderer subtree needs, or can be called before IRenderer.draw(DrawContext), to prepare the renderer to be flushed to the output stream.

Specified by:

layout in interface IRenderer

Parameters:

layoutContext - the description of layout area and any other additional information

Returns:

result of the layout process

draw

public void draw(DrawContext drawContext)

Throws an UnsupportedOperationException because instances of this class are only used for terminating the current content area.

Specified by:

draw in interface IRenderer

Parameters:

drawContext - contains the PdfDocument to which the renderer subtree if flushed, the PdfCanvas on which the renderer subtree is drawn and other additional parameters needed to perform drawing

getOccupiedArea

public LayoutArea getOccupiedArea()

Throws an UnsupportedOperationException because instances of this class are only used for terminating the current content area.

Specified by:

getOccupiedArea in interface IRenderer

Returns:

LayoutArea instance

hasProperty

public boolean hasProperty(int property)

Description copied from interface: IPropertyContainer

Checks if this entity has the specified property. Compared to IPropertyContainer.hasOwnProperty(int), this method can check parent's properties, styles, etc, depending on the origin of the instance

Specified by:

hasProperty in interface IPropertyContainer

Parameters:

property - the property to be checked

Returns:

true if this instance has given property, false otherwise

hasOwnProperty

public boolean hasOwnProperty(int property)

Description copied from interface: IPropertyContainer

Checks if this entity has the specified property, i.e. if it was set to this very element earlier

Specified by:

hasOwnProperty in interface IPropertyContainer

Parameters:

property - the property to be checked

Returns:

true if this instance has given own property, false otherwise

getProperty

public <T1> T1 getProperty(int key)

Description copied from interface: IPropertyContainer

Gets the property from this entity. Compared to IPropertyContainer.getOwnProperty(int), this method can check parent's properties, styles, etc, depending on the origin of the instance

Specified by:

getProperty in interface IPropertyContainer

Type Parameters:

T1 - the return type associated with the property

Parameters:

key - the property to be retrieved

Returns:

the value of the given property. null will be returned if the property value was not found

getOwnProperty

public <T1> T1 getOwnProperty(int property)

Description copied from interface: IPropertyContainer

Gets own property from this entity. The property must have been set earlier to this entity. If the property is not found, null will be returned.

Specified by:

getOwnProperty in interface IPropertyContainer

Type Parameters:

T1 - the return type associated with the property

Parameters:

property - the property to be retrieved

Returns:

the value of the given own property. null will be returned if the property value was not found

getDefaultProperty

public <T1> T1 getDefaultProperty(int property)

Description copied from interface: IPropertyContainer

Gets the default property from this entity.

Specified by:

getDefaultProperty in interface IPropertyContainer

Type Parameters:

T1 - the return type associated with the property

Parameters:

property - the property to be retrieved

Returns:

the default property value. If the default property is not defined, null will be returned

getProperty

public <T1> T1 getProperty(int property,
                           T1 defaultValue)

Throws an UnsupportedOperationException because instances of this class are only used for terminating the current content area.

Specified by:

getProperty in interface IRenderer

Type Parameters:

T1 - the return type associated with the property

Parameters:

property - the property to be retrieved

defaultValue - a fallback value

Returns:

the value of the given property

setProperty

public void setProperty(int property,
                        java.lang.Object value)

Throws an UnsupportedOperationException because instances of this class are only used for terminating the current content area.

Specified by:

setProperty in interface IPropertyContainer

Parameters:

property - the property to be deleted

setParent

public IRenderer setParent(IRenderer parent)

Description copied from interface: IRenderer

Explicitly sets this object as the child of another IRenderer in the renderer hierarchy. Some implementations also use this method internally to create a consistent hierarchy tree.

Specified by:

setParent in interface IRenderer

Parameters:

parent - the object to place higher in the renderer hierarchy
