public @interface FacesRenderer
The presence of this annotation on a
class automatically registers the class with the runtime as a Renderer
. The value of the renderKitId()
attribute is taken
to be the render-kit-id to which an instance of this
Renderer
is to be added. There must be a public
zero-argument constructor on any class where this annotation appears.
The implementation must indicate a fatal error if such a constructor
does not exist and the application must not be placed in service.
Within that RenderKit
, The value of the rendererType()
attribute is taken to be the renderer-type, and the value of
the componentFamily()
attribute is to be taken as the
component-family. The implementation must guarantee that
for each class annotated with FacesRenderer
, found with
the algorithm in section JSF.11.5,
the following actions are taken.
Obtain a reference to the RenderKitFactory
for
this application.
See if a RenderKit
exists for
render-kit-id. If so, let that instance be
renderKit for discussion. If not, the implementation
must indicate a fatal error if such a RenderKit
does not exist and the application must not be placed in
service.
Create an instance of this class using the public zero-argument constructor.
Call RenderKit.addRenderer(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, javax.faces.render.Renderer)
on
renderKit, passing component-family as the
first argument, renderer-type as the second, and the
newly instantiated RenderKit
instance as the
third argument.
