Bebop Tag Library Reference
A.1. Bebop/JSP
Tag Description
show:all/ Simplifies showing all the components of a
page. One such directive is the equivalent of
including a
show:component directive for
each component you have defined for your page
show:page [pageClass=...]
[pmClass=...] [master=...]
...
/show:page
Sets up a Bebop page for use in the JSP. Page is
specified by class name (pageClass). The
pageClass option is omitted if the page is set
up in the same JSP (by including a
page-definition JSP) or within a master page.
The resulting XML produced by the JSP is then
displayed by the presentation manager class
specified by pmClass (default
BasePresentationManager).
show:component name=... / Shows a component from the Bebop page in the
JSP. There is no need for more specific tags for
each component here. The component is
displayed with default global styling.
show:form name=... ...
/show:form
Shows a form from the Bebop page in the JSP. If
the form tag contains a body, it is not displayed
with the default global styling though the
form tag and page state (input
type=hidden...) will be preserved. If the tag
body is empty, though, the entire form will be
displayed with default styling.
show:list name=... ...
show:listItem/ ... /show:list
Shows the contents of a model-backed List from
Bebop page in the JSP. The body of the tag will
be displayed for each item of the list, so this tag
is effectively a loop. The list itself is not
displayed with the default global styling though
the individual list items contained within will be
where indicated by
show:listItem/ . Like
with show:form, if the tag body is empty, the
entire list will be displayed with default styling.
show:slave/ Includes the contents of the slave page into this
point in the master page.
