Method Detail

getName

public String getName()

Returns the theme's name. This name uniquely identifies the theme and correlates to the subdirectory the theme can be found in for both skeleton and skin, if it exists in either.

Returns:

The theme's unique name

isUsingAltSkeleton

public boolean isUsingAltSkeleton()

Indicates whether or not this theme has a whole or partial set of alternate skeleton JSPs available. This value is determined dynamically by the presence or absence of such files in the theme's skeleton area.

Returns:

True if alternate skeleton JSPs are in use

isUsingAltSkin

public boolean isUsingAltSkin()

Indicates whether or not this theme has a whole or partial set of alternate skin resources available. This value is determined dynamically by the presence or absence of such files in the theme's skin area.

Returns:

True if alternate skin resources are in use

getThemeSkeletonPath

public String getThemeSkeletonPath()

The webapp-relative path to this theme's skeleton directory.

Returns:

The theme's skeleton path

getThemeSkinPath

public String getThemeSkinPath()

The webapp-relative path to this theme's skin directory.

Returns:

The theme's skin path

getThemePresentationContext

public static ThemePresentationContext getThemePresentationContext(HttpServletRequest request)

This is a convenience method for returning a reference to the current ThemePresentationContext. Note this method will only work if called from within a portal (typically, from the theme.jsp skeleton). This method may return null if called when no appropriate context exists, but such a context should safely exist when being fetched from the associated skeleton JSP during normal portal rendering.

Parameters:

request - The current HTTPServletRequest instance

Returns:

A reference to the current ThemePresentationContext, if any
