public interface InputData

Abstraction for providing data at view-time by SAXing events.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	isCacheable(Site site, Page page) Returns true if this InputData is cacheable for the current site and if possible page.
default boolean	shouldBeCached(Site site, Page page) Returns true if the resulting SAX events should be actually stored in the central PageElementCache. It may be useful to return false for some InputData managing their own cache and don't wanting to waste space in the central cache. This method is only called if isCacheable(Site, Page) returns true.
void	toSAX(ContentHandler handler) Generates SAX events for providing data.
