Malcolm Edgar updated CLK-598:
------------------------------
Description:
Provide an application page interceptor / listener facility into Click. The
concept is to provide an extension point for code which can listener to key
page events and also interrupt normal page processing flow.
Using this code which tends to be incorporated into Page superclasses can be
refactored into listener classes which can be reused in applications. This
approach supports Page design by composition, rather than through inheritance.
Page listeners could be used for:
* enforcing an application wide security polity, rather than using the
Page#onSecurityCheck() method
* dependency injection, see CLK-581
* support page performance profiling and logging
The listener interface would be:
public interface PageInterceptor {
boolean pageCreate(Class<? extends Page> pageClass, Context context);
boolean postCreate(Page page);
boolean preResponse(Page page);
void postDestroy(Page page);
}
Application page interceptor classes would be defined in the click.xml
configuration file. Applications could defined multiple interceptor which would
be executed sequentially in the order in which there are defined. Lnterceptor
could have a scope / lifecycle of request (where by new instances are created
for each page request, and are threadsafe), or application (where by a single
instance is created and used for all page requests). interceptor can also be
configured to have properties which are set after creation. This scope rules
equates to Spring prototype and singleton scopes.
An example configuration is provided below:
<page-interceptor classname="com.mycorp.listener.ProfilerInterceptor"/>
<page-interceptor classname="com.mycorp.listener.SecurityInterceptor"
scope="application">
<property name="notAthenticatedPath" value="/login.htm"/>
<property name="notAuthorizedPath" value="/not-authorized.htm"/>
</page-interceptor >
