Class WebEventHandlerFactory

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    EnumEventHandlerTypes, WebEventTags
    @Deprecated
public class WebEventHandlerFactory
extends AbstractEventHandlerFactory
implements EnumEventHandlerTypes
    Deprecated.
    This factory is not used. The bean itself now is responsible to define and create instances of its default event-handler.
    This class represents a factory for instantiating various WebEventHandler objects. The type of event-handlers is retrieved from the EnumEventHandlerTypes

    This class has been deprecated. It's not used by the application anymore. In the new framework, beans are responsible to create their own event-handler instance. The bean defines what the default event-hanlder is by implementing the AbstractWebComponent.newDefaultEventHandler().

    Event definitions can be retrieved through the EventHandlersCatalog. This class is cached by the application in the ConfigurationFilesCache. The following sample code shows how to access it: 

     EventHandlersCatalog defns = (EventHandlersCatalog) ConfigurationFilesCache.getConfiguration("/WEB-INF/xml/config/events.xml", EventHandlersCatalog.class);
    Those EventHandlers that would like to automatically be initialized using this configuration file, should extend SysEventHandler.

    Since:
    MicroStrategy Web 7.3.1 or earlier
