Interface Markup

All Superinterfaces:
ActiveFlag, Identifiable, Localized, TimeStamped
public interface Markup
extends TimeStamped, Identifiable, Localized, ActiveFlag

Model interface for portal markups. A Markup object identifies the markup language in that a client device (such as a web browser, a wap device, or an i-mode device) expects to get its result. This is, for example

A markup in the portal contains the following data:

Name (required)
The name of the markup (such as html). This identifies a markup.
Activation flag (required)
Indicates whether or not the markup should be used. Inactive markups can be administered but cannot be used.
Title (optional)
The title of the markup. This is the name that should be displayed by administrative portlets to identify a markup
Character set list (optional)
a collection of character sets for each portal language. A character set denotes the character encoding in which the generated output should be produced. For example, the generated output for HTML devices is utf-8 for most western languages, while for Japanese it could be s-jis This list does not need to identify all character sets for all portal languages.
Default Character Set (required)
The character encoding that should be used for those languages that do not have a setting in the character set list.
Mime Type (required)
The mime type representation of the denoted markup (for example, the mime type of the markup html is normally text/html).
Objects implementing this interface are returned by the MarkupList model.

Since:
5.1.0.1
