RenderKitFactory

java.lang.Object
- javax.faces.render.RenderKitFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

FacesWrapper<RenderKitFactory>
```
public abstract class RenderKitFactory
extends java.lang.Object
implements FacesWrapper<RenderKitFactory>
```
RenderKitFactory is a factory object that registers and returns RenderKit instances. Implementations of Jakarta Server Faces must provide at least a default implementation of RenderKit. Advanced implementations (or external third party libraries) may provide additional RenderKit implementations (keyed by render kit identifiers) for performing different types of rendering for the same components.

There must be one RenderKitFactory instance per web application that is utilizing Jakarta Server Faces. This instance can be acquired, in a portable manner, by calling:
```
   RenderKitFactory factory = (RenderKitFactory)
    FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.RENDER_KIT_FACTORY);
 
```
Usage: extend this class and push the implementation being wrapped to the constructor and use getWrapped() to access the instance being wrapped.

Field Summary

Fields
Modifier and Type	Field and Description
`static java.lang.String`	`HTML_BASIC_RENDER_KIT` The render kit identifier of the default `RenderKit` instance for this Jakarta Server Faces implementation.

Constructor Summary

Constructors
Constructor and Description
`RenderKitFactory()` Deprecated. Use the other constructor taking the implementation being wrapped.
`RenderKitFactory(RenderKitFactory wrapped)` If this factory has been decorated, the implementation doing the decorating should push the implementation being wrapped to this constructor.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`abstract void`	`addRenderKit(java.lang.String renderKitId, RenderKit renderKit)` Register the specified `RenderKit` instance, associated with the specified `renderKitId`, to be supported by this `RenderKitFactory`, replacing any previously registered `RenderKit` for this identifier.
`abstract RenderKit`	`getRenderKit(FacesContext context, java.lang.String renderKitId)` Return a `RenderKit` instance for the specified render kit identifier, possibly customized based on dynamic characteristics of the specified `FacesContext`, if non-`null`.
`abstract java.util.Iterator<java.lang.String>`	`getRenderKitIds()` Return an `Iterator` over the set of render kit identifiers registered with this factory.
`RenderKitFactory`	`getWrapped()` If this factory has been decorated, the implementation doing the decorating may override this method to provide access to the implementation being wrapped.

  - RenderKitFactory
```
public RenderKitFactory(RenderKitFactory wrapped)
```
    If this factory has been decorated, the implementation doing the decorating should push the implementation being wrapped to this constructor. The getWrapped() will then return the implementation being wrapped.
    
    Parameters:
    
    wrapped - The implementation being wrapped.

  - getWrapped
```
public RenderKitFactory getWrapped()
```
    If this factory has been decorated, the implementation doing the decorating may override this method to provide access to the implementation being wrapped.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getWrapped in interface FacesWrapper<RenderKitFactory>
    
    Returns:
    
    the wrapped instance.

public abstract void addRenderKit(java.lang.String renderKitId,
                                  RenderKit renderKit)
```
    Register the specified RenderKit instance, associated with the specified renderKitId, to be supported by this RenderKitFactory, replacing any previously registered RenderKit for this identifier.
    
    Parameters:
    
    renderKitId - Identifier of the RenderKit to register
    
    renderKit - RenderKit instance that we are registering
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if renderKitId or renderKit is null
  - getRenderKit
```
public abstract RenderKit getRenderKit(FacesContext context,
                                       java.lang.String renderKitId)
```
    Return a RenderKit instance for the specified render kit identifier, possibly customized based on dynamic characteristics of the specified FacesContext, if non-null. If there is no registered RenderKit for the specified identifier, return null. The set of available render kit identifiers is available via the getRenderKitIds() method.
    
    Parameters:
    
    context - FacesContext for the request currently being processed, or null if none is available.
    
    renderKitId - Render kit identifier of the requested RenderKit instance
    
    Returns:
    
    a RenderKit instance
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if no RenderKit instance can be returned for the specified identifier
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if renderKitId is null
  - getRenderKitIds
```
public abstract java.util.Iterator<java.lang.String> getRenderKitIds()
```
    Return an Iterator over the set of render kit identifiers registered with this factory. This set must include the value specified by RenderKitFactory.HTML_BASIC_RENDER_KIT.
    
    Returns:
    
    an Iterator over the set of render kit identifiers
