static java.lang.String	getStringValueToRender(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext, javax.faces.component.UIComponent component) Algorithm works as follows; - If it's an input component, submitted value is checked first since it'd be the value to be used in case validation errors terminates jsf lifecycle - Finally the value of the component is retrieved from backing bean and if there's a converter, converted value is returned - If the component is not a value holder, toString of component is used to support Facelets UIInstructions.
static java.lang.String	getStringValueToRender(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext, javax.faces.component.UIComponent component, java.lang.Object value) Resolves the end text to render by using a specified value
static java.lang.String	getWidgetVar(java.lang.String id)
static boolean	isLiteralText(javax.faces.component.UIComponent component)
static java.lang.String	resolveField(javax.el.ValueExpression expression) Attempts to return the property accessed in a simple EL expression of the form ${someObject.property}.

getStringValueToRender

public static java.lang.String getStringValueToRender(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext,
                                                      javax.faces.component.UIComponent component)

Algorithm works as follows; - If it's an input component, submitted value is checked first since it'd be the value to be used in case validation errors terminates jsf lifecycle - Finally the value of the component is retrieved from backing bean and if there's a converter, converted value is returned

- If the component is not a value holder, toString of component is used to support Facelets UIInstructions.

Parameters:

facesContext - FacesContext instance

component - UIComponent instance whose value will be returned

Returns:

End text

resolveField

public static java.lang.String resolveField(javax.el.ValueExpression expression)

Attempts to return the property accessed in a simple EL expression of the form ${someObject.property}.

Parameters:

expression - An EL expression to parse the property from.

Returns:

The property name of the EL expression.

getStringValueToRender

public static java.lang.String getStringValueToRender(javax.faces.context.FacesContext facesContext,
                                                      javax.faces.component.UIComponent component,
                                                      java.lang.Object value)

Resolves the end text to render by using a specified value

Parameters:

facesContext - FacesContext instance

component - UIComponent instance whose value will be returned

Returns:

End text
