Class IlvImageMapAreaGenerator

java.lang.Object
  ilog.views.servlet.IlvImageMapAreaGenerator

public class IlvImageMapAreaGenerator
extends Object

An object used to generate an AREA element of an image map. The default implementation allows you to generate a rectangular area corresponding to the bounding box of a graphic object. No default HREF parameter is generated for an area; you must overwrite the method generateHREF to generate an HREF parameter. When an "image map" request is sent to the IlvManagerServlet, an area will be generated for a graphic object if the following conditions are true:

A property was set on the layer containing the object using: layer.setProperty(IlvManagerServlet.ImageMapAreaGeneratorProperty, Boolean.TRUE).

The graphic object will be visible in the generated image.

An image map generator was installed as a property of the graphic object using: obj.setProperty(IlvManagerServlet.ImageMapAreaGeneratorProperty, new IlvImageMapAreaGenerator()).

Method Detail

shouldGenerate

public boolean shouldGenerate(IlvManagerView view,
                              IlvGraphic obj,
                              IlvTransformer t)

This method returns true if an area should be generated for the specified graphic object. The default implementation returns a value that depends on the graphic object type:

• If the graphic isn't an IlvManager instance, this methods returns true.
• If the graphic object is an IlvManager instance and this manager is collapsed, this method returns true.
• If the graphic object is an IlvManager instance and this manager is not collapsed, this method returns the result of isGenerateManagerArea().

setGenerateManagerArea

public void setGenerateManagerArea(boolean generateManagerArea)

Specifies whether an area should be generated for sub managers.

Note that this property doesn't affect the generation of the objects of a sub manager but the sub manager itself.

Parameters:

generateManagerArea - true to generate areas for sub managers, false otherwise.

Since:

JViews 7.5

isGenerateManagerArea

public boolean isGenerateManagerArea()

Returns true to generate areas for sub managers, false otherwise.

Note that this property doesn't affect the generation of the objects of a sub manager but the sub manager itself.

Since:

JViews 7.5

getShape

public int getShape(IlvManagerView view,
                    IlvGraphic obj,
                    IlvTransformer t)

This method returns the shape of the area for the specified graphic object. The default implementation returns RECTANGLE_SHAPE.

generateCOORDS

public String generateCOORDS(IlvManagerView view,
                             IlvGraphic obj,
                             IlvRect bounds,
                             IlvTransformer t)

This method returns the coordinates of the area for the specified graphic object. The default implementation returns coordinates corresponding to the bounding box of the object.

Parameters:

view - The manager view

obj - The graphic object

bounds - The bounds of the view, in view coordinates

t - The transformer to draw the object

generateHREF

public String generateHREF(IlvManagerView view,
                           IlvGraphic obj)

This method returns the HREF attribute of the area for the specified graphic object. No default HREF is provided, so in this case the method returns null.

generateALT

public String generateALT(IlvManagerView view,
                          IlvGraphic obj)

This method returns the ALT attribute of the area for the specified graphic object. No default value is provided, so in this case the method returns null.

generateTARGET

public String generateTARGET(IlvManagerView view,
                             IlvGraphic obj)

This method returns the TARGET attribute of the area for the specified graphic object. No default value is provided, so in this case the method returns null.

generateONMOUSEOVER

public String generateONMOUSEOVER(IlvManagerView view,
                                  IlvGraphic obj)

This method returns the ONMOUSEOVER attribute of the area for the specified graphic object. No default value is provided, so in this case the method returns null.

generateONMOUSEOUT

public String generateONMOUSEOUT(IlvManagerView view,
                                 IlvGraphic obj)

This method returns the ONMOUSEOUT attribute of the area for the specified graphic object. No default value is provided, so in this case the method returns null.
