## com.google.gwt.resources.ext
Interface ResourceContext

    public interface ResourceContext

Context object for ResourceGenerators. An instance of this type will be provided by the resource generation framework to implementations of ResourceGenerator via `ResourceGenerator.init(com.google.gwt.core.ext.TreeLogger, com.google.gwt.resources.ext.ResourceContext)`. Because this interface is not intended to be implemented by end-users, the API provided by this interface may be extended in the future.

Depending on the optimizations made by the implementation of `deploy(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, byte[], boolean)`, the resulting URL may or may not be compatible with standard `RequestBuilder` / XMLHttpRequest security semantics. If the resource is intended to be used with XHR, or if there are other reasons why embedding the resource is undesirable such as known incompatibilities, the `forceExternal` parameter should be set to `true` when invoking `deploy(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, byte[], boolean)`.

Method Summary

Method Detail

### deploy

    java.lang.String deploy(java.lang.String suggestedFileName,
                            java.lang.String mimeType,
                            byte[] data,
                            boolean forceExternal)
                            throws UnableToCompleteException

  Cause a specific collection of bytes to be available in the program's compiled output. The return value of this method is a Java expression which will evaluate to the location of the resource at runtime. The exact format should not be depended upon.

  Parameters:
    `suggestedFileName` - an unobfuscated filename to possibly use for the resource
    `mimeType` - the MIME type of the data being provided
    `data` - the bytes to add to the output
    `forceExternal` - prevents embedding of the resource, e.g. in case of known incompatibilities or for example to enforce compatibility with security restrictions if the resource is intended to be accessed via an XMLHttpRequest
  Returns:
    a Java expression which will evaluate to the location of the provided resource at runtime
  Throws:
    `UnableToCompleteException`

### deploy

    @Deprecated
    java.lang.String deploy(java.net.URL resource,
                                       boolean forceExternal)
                            throws UnableToCompleteException

  Deprecated. use `deploy(URL, String, boolean)` instead

  Cause a specific collection of bytes to be available in the program's compiled output. The return value of this method is a Java expression which will evaluate to the location of the resource at runtime. The exact format should not be depended upon.

  Parameters:
    `resource` - the resource to add to the compiled output
    `forceExternal` - prevents embedding of the resource, e.g. in case of known incompatibilities or for example to enforce compatibility with security restrictions if the resource is intended to be accessed via an XMLHttpRequest
  Returns:
    a Java expression which will evaluate to the location of the provided resource at runtime
  Throws:
    `UnableToCompleteException`

### deploy

    java.lang.String deploy(java.net.URL resource,
                            java.lang.String mimeType,
                            boolean forceExternal)
                            throws UnableToCompleteException

  Cause a specific collection of bytes to be available in the program's compiled output. The return value of this method is a Java expression which will evaluate to the location of the resource at runtime. The exact format should not be depended upon.

  Parameters:
    `resource` - the resource to add to the compiled output
    `mimeType` - optional MIME Type to be used for an embedded resource
    `forceExternal` - prevents embedding of the resource, e.g. in case of known incompatibilities or for example to enforce compatibility with security restrictions if the resource is intended to be accessed via an XMLHttpRequest
  Returns:
    a Java expression which will evaluate to the location of the provided resource at runtime
  Throws:
    `UnableToCompleteException`

### getCachedData

    <T> T getCachedData(java.lang.String key,
                        java.lang.Class<T> clazz)

  Retrieve data from the ResourceContext.

  Type Parameters:
    `T` - the type of data to retrieve
  Parameters:
    `key` - the key value passed to `getCachedData(java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<T>)`
    `clazz` - the type to which the cached value must be assignable
  Returns:
    the value previously passed to `putCachedData(java.lang.String, T)` or `null` if the data was not found
  Throws:
    `java.lang.ClassCastException` - if the cached data is not assignable to the specified type

### getClientBundleType

    JClassType getClientBundleType()

  Return the interface type of the resource bundle being generated.

### getGeneratorContext

    GeneratorContext getGeneratorContext()

  Return the GeneratorContext in which the overall resource generation framework is being run. Implementations of ResourceGenerator should prefer `deploy(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, byte[], boolean)` over `GeneratorContext.tryCreateResource(com.google.gwt.core.ext.TreeLogger, java.lang.String)` in order to take advantage of serving optimizations that can be performed by the bundle architecture.

### getImplementationSimpleSourceName

    java.lang.String getImplementationSimpleSourceName()
                                                       throws java.lang.IllegalStateException

  Returns the simple source name of the implementation of the bundle being generated. This can be used during code-generation to refer to the instance of the bundle (e.g. via `SimpleSourceName.this`).

  Throws:
    `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - if this method is called during `ResourceGenerator.init(com.google.gwt.core.ext.TreeLogger, com.google.gwt.resources.ext.ResourceContext)` or `ResourceGenerator.prepare(com.google.gwt.core.ext.TreeLogger, com.google.gwt.resources.ext.ResourceContext, com.google.gwt.resources.ext.ClientBundleRequirements, com.google.gwt.core.ext.typeinfo.JMethod)` methods.

### getRequirements

    ClientBundleRequirements getRequirements()

  Returns a `ClientBundleRequirements` object, which can be used to track deferred-binding and configuration properties that are relevant to a resource context.

### putCachedData

    <T> boolean putCachedData(java.lang.String key,
                              T value)

  Store data in the ResourceContext. ResourceGenerators may reduce the amount of recomputation performed by caching data the ResourceContext. This cache will be invalidated when the compiler's TypeOracle is refreshed or replaced. Each ResourceGenerator has an isolated view of the cache.

  Type Parameters:
    `T` - the type of data being stored
  Parameters:
    `key` - a string key to locate the data
    `value` - the value to store
  Returns:
    `true` if the cache did not previously contain the key-value pair

### supportsDataUrls

    boolean supportsDataUrls()

  Indicates if the runtime context supports data: urls. When data URLs are supported by the context, aggregation of resource data into larger payloads is discouraged, as it offers reduced benefit to the application at runtime.
