TYPE_BLOCK  : string = 'block'
TYPE_CALLBACK  : string = 'callback'
TYPE_PLACEHOLDER  : string = 'placeholder'

Properties

$component  : SystemComponentController
Component which registered this widget
$customParseTarget  : WidgetParseTarget
Custom parse target to use for sub-widgets
$localeCodes  : array<string|int, mixed>
List of locale codes ordered by translation fallback order per Cx instance
$name  : string
Name of this widget

Counts the nesting level of __call()

List of fields that should be available in the string representation

Sprintf format for the string representation

Initialize this array as follows: array( 'columName' => Zend_Validate )

Methods

__call()  : mixed
Route methods like getName(), getType(), getDirectory(), etc.
__construct()  : mixed
Instanciates a new widget
__get()  : mixed
This is an ugly solution to allow $this->cx to be available in all entity classes Since the entity's constructor is not called when an entity is loaded from DB this cannot be assigned there.
__toString()  : string
Returns this entity's identifying value
clearCache()  : mixed
Clears all cache files for this Widget (if any)
getComponentController()  : SystemComponent
Returns the component controller for this component
getCustomParseTarget()  : WidgetParseTarget

hasCustomParseTarget()  : bool
Tells whether this widget has a custom parse target
initializeValidators()  : mixed

Really parses this widget into $template If this Widget has no content, the replacement can simply be returned as string. Otherwise the replacement must be done in $template.
