Method Detail

getFlowLayoutPresentationContext

public static FlowLayoutPresentationContext getFlowLayoutPresentationContext(HttpServletRequest request)

This is a convenience method for returning a reference to the one and only FlowLayoutPresentationContext. Note this method will only work if called from within a portal (typically, from the flowlayout.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 FlowLayoutPresentationContext, if any

getOrientation

public String getOrientation()

Returns the text of the orientation attribute specified in the .layout file that corresponds to this FlowLayout portal component. Will be either FlowLayout.ORIENT_HORIZONTAL or FlowLayout.ORIENT_VERTICAL.

Returns:

The text of the orientation attribute as a String. If unspecified, FlowLayout.ORIENT_VERTICAL is returned.

See Also:

FlowLayout#ORIENT_HORIZONTAL, FlowLayout#ORIENT_VERTICAL

isHorizontal

public boolean isHorizontal()

Returns:

true if the orientation attribute is set to "horizontal"

isVertical

public boolean isVertical()

Returns:

true if the orientation attribute is set to "vertical"
