## Class StringAdapter

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.struts2.views.xslt.AbstractAdapterNode
  - - org.apache.struts2.views.xslt.AbstractAdapterElement
    - - org.apache.struts2.views.xslt.StringAdapter

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    AdapterNode, Element, Node

      public class StringAdapter
      extends AbstractAdapterElement

  StringAdapter adapts a Java String value to a DOM Element with the specified property name containing the String's text. e.g. a property `String getFoo() { return "My Text!"; }` will appear in the result DOM as: <foo>MyText!</foo>

  Subclasses may override the getStringValue() method in order to use StringAdapter as a simplified custom XML adapter for Java types. A subclass can enable XML parsing of the value string via the setParseStringAsXML() method and then override getStringValue() to return a String containing the custom formatted XML.

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### StringAdapter

          public StringAdapter()

    - #### StringAdapter

          public StringAdapter(AdapterFactory adapterFactory,
                       AdapterNode parent,
                       String propertyName,
                       String value)

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getStringValue

          protected String getStringValue()

      Get the object to be adapted as a String value.

      This method can be overridden by subclasses that wish to use StringAdapter as a simplified customizable XML adapter for Java types. A subclass can enable parsing of the value string as containing XML text via the setParseStringAsXML() method and then override getStringValue() to return a String containing the custom formatted XML.

      Returns:
        the string value

    - #### buildChildAdapters

          protected List<Node> buildChildAdapters()

      Description copied from class: `AbstractAdapterNode`
      subclasses override to produce their children
      Overrides:
        `buildChildAdapters` in class `AbstractAdapterNode`
      Returns:
        List of child adapters.

    - #### getParseStringAsXML

          public boolean getParseStringAsXML()

      Returns:
        is this StringAdapter to interpret its string values as containing XML Text?
      See Also:
        `setParseStringAsXML(boolean)`

    - #### setParseStringAsXML

          public void setParseStringAsXML(boolean parseStringAsXML)

      When set to true the StringAdapter will interpret its String value as containing XML text and parse it to a DOM Element. The new DOM Element will be a child of this String element. (i.e. wrapped in an element of the property name specified for this StringAdapter).
      Parameters:
        `parseStringAsXML` - when set to true the StringAdapter will interpret its String value as containing XML text
      See Also:
        `getParseStringAsXML()`
