TabManagerBean

implements AppComponent RequestPersistable

com.microstrategy.web.app.beans.TabManagerBean

Known Indirect Subclasses

AccordionTabManagerBeanImpl, DerivedElementFormatEditorBean, FormatTabManagerBean, ObjectBrowserManagerBean

Class Overview

This bean will be used for a tabbed control, for handling which tab should be shown, based on the children beans defined to this instance and the tab specification of each one of them. The manager should be used only when there's the possibility of multiple tabs being shown to the user as options. If it is for sure only one is to be shown, the manager is not required, since each child bean should be independent for processing the information and rendering its contents.

Set the tab to be displayed by the Tab Manager as current one.

Parameters

currentTab	numeric identifier of the child tab to be marked as current.

public abstract void setCurrentTabName (String currentTabName)

Set the tab to be displayed by the this manager as current one by name of the tab.

Parameters

currentTabName	`String` representing which tab is to be selected as current by name

public abstract void setSelectedTypes (String selectedTypes)

Set the list of object types selected in the client.

Parameters

selectedTypes	`String` representing the list of selected objects.

public abstract void setTabProperties (String tabName, Object prop)

Sets bone properties for individual tabs of the editor.

Parameters

prop	a JSonGenerator object containing all property-value pairs that need to be associated with the tab

public abstract void setTabSwitchMode (int switchMode)

Set the mode of switching tabs for the tab manager. Automatic/HTML mode Automatic - means, we use DHTML to switch tabs. HTML - means, switching tabs will go back to the web server
