Class Overview

The ExpressionGenericTransform class is a LayoutTransform which transforms an ExpressionBean object. It is also meant to be the base class for filter-related transforms, such as the FilterElementTransform for the filter editor. Many of the rendering methods on this interface are protected - the intention is to allow customizations to be done by extending this transform and overriding the methods which generate the appropriate output.
