Methods

protected

• checkConnectionAlive() — Method to check the current client connnection status to ensure that it is alive. We are wrapping this to isolate the connection_status() function from our code base for testing reasons.
• checkHeadersSent() — Method to check to see if headers have already been sent. We are wrapping this to isolate the headers_sent() function from our code base for testing reasons.
• compress() — Checks the accept encoding of the browser and compresses the data before sending it to the client if possible.
• detectRequestUri() — Method to detect the requested URI from server environment variables.
• doExecute() — Method to run the Web application routines. Most likely you will want to instantiate a controller and execute it, or perform some sort of action that populates a JDocument object so that output can be rendered to the client.
• fetchConfigurationData() — Method to load a PHP configuration class file based on convention and return the instantiated data object. You will extend this method in child classes to provide configuration data from whatever data source is relevant for your specific application.
• header() — Method to send a header to the client. We are wrapping this to isolate the header() function from our code base for testing reasons.
• loadSystemUris() — Method to load the system URI strings for the application.
• render() — Rendering is the process of pushing the document buffers into the template placeholders, retrieving data from the document and pushing it into the application response buffer.
• respond() — Method to send the application response to the client. All headers will be sent prior to the main application output data.

public

• __construct() — Class constructor.
• afterSessionStart() — After the session has been started we need to populate it with some default values.
• allowCache() — Set/get cachable state for the response. If $allow is set, sets the cachable state of the response. Always returns the current state.
• appendBody() — Append content to the body content
• clearHeaders() — Method to clear any set response headers.
• execute() — Execute the application.
• flushAssets() — Flush the media version to refresh versionable assets
• get() — Returns a property of the object or the default value if the property is not set.
• getBody() — Return the body content
• getDocument() — Method to get the application document object.
• getHeaders() — Method to get the array of response headers to be sent when the response is sent to the client.
• getInstance() — Returns a reference to the global JApplicationWeb object, only creating it if it doesn't already exist.
• getLanguage() — Method to get the application language object.
• getSession() — Method to get the application session object.
• initialise() — Initialise the application.
• isSSLConnection() — Determine if we are using a secure (SSL) connection.
• loadConfiguration() — Load an object or array into the application configuration object.
• loadDocument() — Allows the application to load a custom or default document.
• loadLanguage() — Allows the application to load a custom or default language.
• loadSession() — Allows the application to load a custom or default session.
• prependBody() — Prepend content to the body content
• redirect() — Redirect to another URL.
• sendHeaders() — Send the response headers.
• set() — Modifies a property of the object, creating it if it does not already exist.
• setBody() — Set body content. If body content already defined, this will replace it.
• setHeader() — Method to set a response header. If the replace flag is set then all headers with the given name will be replaced by the new one. The headers are stored in an internal array to be sent when the site is sent to the browser.
