Class SubsetIteratorTag
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- jakarta.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyTag,- jakarta.servlet.jsp.tagext.IterationTag,- jakarta.servlet.jsp.tagext.JspTag,- jakarta.servlet.jsp.tagext.Tag,- Serializable
A tag that takes an iterator and outputs a subset of it. It delegates to
 SubsetIteratorFilter internally to
 perform the subset functionality.
- count (Object) - Indicate the number of entries to be in the resulting subset iterator
- source* (Object) - Indicate the source of which the resulting subset iterator is to be derived base on
- start (Object) - Indicate the starting index (eg. first entry is 0) of entries in the source to be available as the first entry in the resulting subset iterator
- decider (Object) - Extension to plug-in a decider to determine if that particular entry is to be included in the resulting subset iterator
- var (String) - Indicate the pageContext attribute name to store the resultant subset iterator in

setPerformClearTagStateForTagPoolingServerspublic void setPerformClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers(boolean performClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers) Description copied from class:StrutsBodyTagSupportRequest that the tag state be cleared duringStrutsBodyTagSupport.doEndTag()processing, which may help with certain edge cases with tag logic running on servers that implement JSP Tag Pooling. Note: Even though the Tag classes extend this classStrutsBodyTagSupport, and this methodStrutsBodyTagSupport.setPerformClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers(boolean)exists in the method hierarchy, the JSP processing requires us to explicitly override it in every Tag class in order for the Tag handler method to be visible to the JSP processing. Defining a setter in the superclass alone is insufficient (results in "Cannot find a setter method for the attribute").See StrutsBodyTagSupport.clearTagStateForTagPoolingServers()for additional details. Warning: Setting this value to true may allow for the desired behaviour, but doing so may violate the JSP specification. Set to true at your own risk.- Overrides:
- setPerformClearTagStateForTagPoolingServersin class- StrutsBodyTagSupport
- Parameters:
- performClearTagStateForTagPoolingServers- true if tag state should be cleared, false otherwise.

clearTagStateForTagPoolingServersprotected void clearTagStateForTagPoolingServers()Description copied from class:StrutsBodyTagSupportProvide a mechanism to clear tag state, to handle servlet container JSP tag pooling behaviour with some servers, such as Glassfish.Usage: Override this method in descendant classes to clear any state that might cause issues should the servlet container re-use a cached instance of the tag object. If the descendant class does not declare any new field members then it should not be strictly necessary to call this method there. Typically that means calling the ancestor's ComponentTagSupport.clearTagStateForTagPoolingServers()method first, then resetting instance variables at the current level to their default state.Note: If the descendant overrides StrutsBodyTagSupport.doEndTag(), and does not call super.doEndTag(), then the descendant should call this method in the descendant doEndTag() method to ensure consistent clearing of tag state.- Overrides:
- clearTagStateForTagPoolingServersin class- StrutsBodyTagSupport
