A
Renderer
transforms machine readable data to a screen module:caplin/control/Control
, and
captures user gestures which are then communicated back to one or more
module:caplin/element/RendererEventListener
s.
This interface allows module:caplin/element/Handler
s to interact with the Renderer
.Methods
-
addRendererEventListener(oRendererEventListener)
-
Adds a
module:caplin/element/RendererEventListener
to which the Renderer will communicates user-gestures.Parameters:
Name Type Description oRendererEventListener
module:caplin/element/RendererEventListener The renderer event listener. - Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/BlankRenderer#addRendererEventListener
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#addRendererEventListener
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#addRendererEventListener
-
clear()
-
Clears the renderer value and all associated state, including the displayed value. The renderer will remain bound to the DOM.
- Implementations:

- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#clearState
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#clearState

- module:caplin/element/renderer/BlankRenderer#disable
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#disable
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#disable
-
enable()
-
Enables the renderer control. Does nothing if the control has no concept of enabled/disabled.

- module:caplin/element/renderer/BlankRenderer#enable
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#enable
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#enable
-
focus()
-
Moves the focus to this renderer. Does nothing if the control has no concept of focus.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#focus
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#focus
-
getFieldValues()
-
Returns the fields relating to the currently displayed value.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#getFieldValues
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#getFieldValues
Returns:
The field values. -
getFormattedValue()
-
Returns the formatted downstream value.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#getFormattedValue
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#getFormattedValue
Returns:
The formatted downstream value. -
getName()
-
Returns the renderer name. This is set by the framework that instantiates the Renderer (e.g. the grid) and represents the field context (e.g. "Bid Price").
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#getName
Returns:
The renderer's name. -
getNamespace()
-
Returns the renderer namespace. This is set by the framework that instantiates the Renderer (e.g. the grid) and represents the record context (e.g. "/FX/GBPUSD").
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/BlankRenderer#getNamespace
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#getNamespace
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#getNamespace
Returns:
The renderer's namespace. -
getParsedValue()
-
Returns the parsed upstream value.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#getParsedValue
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#getParsedValue
Returns:
The parsed upstream value. -
getUnformattedValue()
-
Returns the unformatted downstream value.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#getUnformattedValue
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#getUnformattedValue
Returns:
The unformatted downstream value. -
getUnparsedValue()
-
Returns the unparsed upstream value.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#getUnparsedValue
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#getUnparsedValue
Returns:
The unparsed upstream value. -
getValue()
-
Gets the renderer value.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#getValue
Returns:
vRendererValue The renderer value. -
isEnabled()
-
Determines whether the control is enabled.
Returns:
true if the control is enabled. -
raiseEvent(sType, mRendererEvent)
-
Raises a renderer event.
Parameters:
Name Type Description sType
String The renderer event type. mRendererEvent
Map The renderer event to raise. - Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/BlankRenderer#raiseEvent
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#raiseEvent
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#raiseEvent
-
removeRendererEventListener(oRendererEventListener)
-
Removes a
module:caplin/element/RendererEventListener
to which the Renderer will communicate user-gestures.Parameters:
Name Type Description oRendererEventListener
module:caplin/element/RendererEventListener The renderer event listener. - Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/BlankRenderer#removeRendererEventListener
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#removeRendererEventListener
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#removeRendererEventListener
-
select()
-
Moves the focus and highlights this renderer. Does nothing if the control has no concept of focus.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#select
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#select
-
setValue(vRendererValue)
-
Sets the renderer value.
Parameters:
Name Type Description vRendererValue
Variant The renderer value. - Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#setValue
-
toString() → {String}
-
Returns a human-readable string representation of the renderer, which is useful for debugging.
- Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/BlankRenderer#toString
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#toString
Returns:
The string representation- Type
- String
-
updateFields(mFieldValues)
-
Updates the renderer with the supplied fields. The field values will be reflected in the control on the next call to {module:caplin/element/Renderer#refresh}. The Renderer might depend on these fields either because it has been bound to them in the constructor, or if the XML renderer definition refers to these fields using the ${} notation. Additional field values can be supplied and they will have no effect on the displayed value, but they will be returned by {module:caplin/element/Renderer#getFieldValues}. This can exploited to hold additional information about the value (such as price ID or timestamp).
Parameters:
Name Type Description mFieldValues
Map the new field values. - Implementations:
- module:caplin/element/renderer/BlankRenderer#updateFields
- module:caplin/element/renderer/CompositeRenderer#updateFields
- module:caplin/element/renderer/StreamRenderer#updateFields
-
updateFieldValues(mFieldValues)
-
Updates the field values.
Parameters:
Name Type Description mFieldValues
Map The field values.
