Annotation Interface Render


@Documented @Target(METHOD) public @interface Render
Identifies the method invoked to render the view. There must be exactly one method annotated with this annotation within the view. The method must return a value of type Renderable. A Buildable result is built before passing the node to React.

The method must also conform to the following constraints:

  • Must not be annotated with any other react4j annotation
  • Must not be private
  • Must not be static
  • Must not be abstract
  • Must not throw exceptions
  • Must be accessible from the same package as the class annotated by View
  • Should not be public as not expected to be invoked outside the view. A warning will be generated but can be suppressed by the SuppressWarnings or SuppressReact4jWarnings annotations with a key "React4j:PublicMethod". This warning is also suppressed by the annotation processor if it is implementing an interface method.
  • Should not be protected if in the class annotated with the View annotation as the method is not expected to be invoked outside the view. A warning will be generated but can be suppressed by the SuppressWarnings or SuppressReact4jWarnings annotations with a key "React4j:ProtectedMethod".
  • Nullness follows the declaring JSpecify scope. Annotate a method that can return no content with Nullable. Legacy nullability annotations are ignored.
