Class DelegatingMetaTagHandler

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    FaceletHandler
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    ComponentHandler, FaceletsAttachedObjectHandler

    public abstract class DelegatingMetaTagHandler
    extends MetaTagHandler

    Enable the Jakarta Faces implementation to provide the appropriate behavior for the kind of MetaTagHandler subclass for each kind of element in the view, while providing a base-class from which those wanting to make a Java language custom tag handler can inherit. The Jakarta Server Faces runtime provides the implementation of getTagHandlerDelegate() for the appropriate subclass.
