Method Detail

getRefinementMenuType

public String getRefinementMenuType()

Returns the RefinementMenu type.

Returns:

RefinementMenu type for this cartridge handler

See Also:

setRefinementMenuType(String)

setRefinementMenuType

public void setRefinementMenuType(String refinementMenuType)

Sets the type for RefinementMenus created by this class. If not specified, a default value of "RefinementMenu" will be used.

Parameters:

refinementMenuType - the RefinementMenu type for this cartridge handler

wrapConfig

protected NavigationContainerConfig wrapConfig(ContentItem pContentItem)

Description copied from class: NavigationCartridgeHandler

Wraps the input ContentItem as a typed config object. It is not expected that subclasses will mutate the input ContentItem, beyond passing it into their typed configuration class as a constructor argument.

Specified by:

wrapConfig in class NavigationCartridgeHandler<NavigationContainerConfig,NavigationContainer>

Parameters:

pContentItem - the configuration for this cartridge handler. This will either be the fully initialized configuration object, if a ContentItemInitializer has been set, or it will simply be the instance configuration.

Returns:

an instance of ConfigType which wraps the input ContentItem.

See Also:

NavigationCartridgeHandler.initialize(ContentItem), NavigationCartridgeHandler.setContentItemInitializer(ContentItemInitializer)

preprocess

public void preprocess(NavigationContainerConfig pContentItem)
                throws CartridgeHandlerException

Initializes the showAll fields and sets mMdexRequest. If you are overriding this method you MUST set mMdexRequest as it is being used by the process(NavigationContainerConfig) method (unless you are also overriding process(NavigationContainerConfig))

Overrides:

preprocess in class NavigationCartridgeHandler<NavigationContainerConfig,NavigationContainer>

Throws:

CartridgeHandlerException

process

public NavigationContainer process(NavigationContainerConfig pContentItem)
                            throws CartridgeHandlerException

Builds the RefinementMenus and creates the output NavigationContainer model. This method makes use of the mMdexRequest variable to make its Mdex Request(s). If you are overriding this method you may assume mMdexRequest is set properly properly.

Overrides:

process in class NavigationCartridgeHandler<NavigationContainerConfig,NavigationContainer>

Returns:

NavigationContainer model class containing RefinementMenus.

Throws:

CartridgeHandlerException
