## javax.servlet.jsp.tagext
Class TagData

    java.lang.Object
      javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.TagData

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.lang.Cloneable

    public class TagData

extends java.lang.Object
implements java.lang.Cloneable

The (translation-time only) attribute/value information for a tag instance.

TagData is only used as an argument to the isValid, validate, and getVariableInfo methods of TagExtraInfo, which are invoked at translation time.

Field Summary
`static java.lang.Object` | `REQUEST_TIME_VALUE` Distinguished value for an attribute to indicate its value is a request-time expression (which is not yet available because TagData instances are used at translation-time).

Constructor Summary
`TagData(java.util.Hashtable<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> attrs)` Constructor for a TagData.
`TagData(java.lang.Object[][] atts)` Constructor for TagData.

Method Summary
`java.lang.Object` | `getAttribute(java.lang.String attName)` The value of the attribute.
`java.util.Enumeration<java.lang.String>` | `getAttributes()` Enumerates the attributes.
`java.lang.String` | `getAttributeString(java.lang.String attName)` Get the value for a given attribute.
`java.lang.String` | `getId()` The value of the tag's id attribute.
`void` | `setAttribute(java.lang.String attName, java.lang.Object value)` Set the value of an attribute.

Field Detail

### REQUEST_TIME_VALUE

    public static final java.lang.Object REQUEST_TIME_VALUE

  Distinguished value for an attribute to indicate its value is a request-time expression (which is not yet available because TagData instances are used at translation-time).

Constructor Detail

### TagData

    public TagData(java.lang.Object[][] atts)

  Constructor for TagData.

  A typical constructor may be

       static final Object[][] att = {{"connection", "conn0"}, {"id", "query0"}};
       static final TagData td = new TagData(att);

  All values must be Strings except for those holding the distinguished object REQUEST_TIME_VALUE.

  Parameters:
    `atts` - the static attribute and values. May be null.

### TagData

    public TagData(java.util.Hashtable<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object> attrs)

  Constructor for a TagData. If you already have the attributes in a hashtable, use this constructor.

  Parameters:
    `attrs` - A hashtable to get the values from.

Method Detail

### getId

    public java.lang.String getId()

  The value of the tag's id attribute.

  Returns:
    the value of the tag's id attribute, or null if no such attribute was specified.

### getAttribute

    public java.lang.Object getAttribute(java.lang.String attName)

  The value of the attribute. If a static value is specified for an attribute that accepts a request-time attribute expression then that static value is returned, even if the value is provided in the body of a action. The distinguished object REQUEST_TIME_VALUE is only returned if the value is specified as a request-time attribute expression or via the <jsp:attribute> action with a body that contains dynamic content (scriptlets, scripting expressions, EL expressions, standard actions, or custom actions). Returns null if the attribute is not set.

  Parameters:
    `attName` - the name of the attribute
  Returns:
    the attribute's value

### setAttribute

    public void setAttribute(java.lang.String attName,
                             java.lang.Object value)

  Set the value of an attribute.

  Parameters:
    `attName` - the name of the attribute
    `value` - the value.

### getAttributeString

    public java.lang.String getAttributeString(java.lang.String attName)

  Get the value for a given attribute.

  Parameters:
    `attName` - the name of the attribute
  Returns:
    the attribute value string
  Throws:
    `java.lang.ClassCastException` - if attribute value is not a String

### getAttributes

    public java.util.Enumeration<java.lang.String> getAttributes()

  Enumerates the attributes.

  Returns:
    An enumeration of the attributes in a TagData
