path - The resource path

resourceType - The type of the resource

SyntheticResource

public SyntheticResource(ResourceResolver resourceResolver,
                         ResourceMetadata rm,
                         java.lang.String resourceType)

Creates a synthetic resource with the given ResourceMetadata and resourceType.

Parameters:

resourceResolver - The resource resolver

rm - The resource meta data

resourceType - The type of the resource

Method Detail

getPath

public java.lang.String getPath()

Description copied from interface: Resource

Returns the absolute path of this resource in the resource tree.

Returns:

The resource path

See Also:

Resource.getPath()

getResourceType

public java.lang.String getResourceType()

Description copied from interface: Resource

The resource type is meant to point to rendering/processing scripts, editing dialogs, etc. It is usually a path in the repository, where scripts and other tools definitions are found, but the ResourceResolver is free to set this to any suitable value such as the primary node type of the JCR node from which the resource is created.

If the resource instance represents a resource which is not actually existing, this method returns Resource.RESOURCE_TYPE_NON_EXISTING.

Returns:

The resource type

See Also:

Resource.getResourceType()

getResourceSuperType

public java.lang.String getResourceSuperType()

Synthetic resources by default do not have a resource super type.

Returns:

The super type of the resource or null.

getResourceMetadata

public ResourceMetadata getResourceMetadata()

Returns a resource metadata object containing just the path of this resource as the ResourceMetadata.RESOLUTION_PATH property.

Returns:

The resource meta data

See Also:

ResourceMetadata

getResourceResolver

public ResourceResolver getResourceResolver()

Returns the ResourceResolver with which this synthetic resource is related or null if none.

Returns:

The resource resolver

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
