## Class PrefixedPatternDefinitionResolver<T>

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.tiles.core.definition.pattern.AbstractPatternDefinitionResolver<T>
  - - org.apache.tiles.core.definition.pattern.PrefixedPatternDefinitionResolver<T>

- Type Parameters:
    `T` - The type of the customization key.
  All Implemented Interfaces:
    PatternDefinitionResolver<T>

      public class PrefixedPatternDefinitionResolver<T>
      extends AbstractPatternDefinitionResolver<T>

  This resolver allows the use of multiple pattern matching languages. The syntax of definition names must be `LANGUAGENAME:expression`.
  The different languages must be registered through the use of `registerDefinitionPatternMatcherFactory(String, DefinitionPatternMatcherFactory)` method before using this resolver.
  Since:
    2.2.0

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### registerDefinitionPatternMatcherFactory

          public void registerDefinitionPatternMatcherFactory(String language,
                                                              DefinitionPatternMatcherFactory factory)

      Registers a `DefinitionPatternMatcherFactory` connected to a particular language.
      Parameters:
        `language` - The name of the language.
        `factory` - The pattern matcher factory to register.
      Since:
        2.2.0

    - #### addDefinitionsAsPatternMatchers

          protected Map<String,Definition> addDefinitionsAsPatternMatchers(List<DefinitionPatternMatcher> matchers,
                                                                           Map<String,Definition> defsMap)

      Adds definitions, filtering and adding them to the list of definition pattern matchers. Only a subset of definitions will be transformed into definition pattern matchers.
      Specified by:
        `addDefinitionsAsPatternMatchers` in class `AbstractPatternDefinitionResolver<T>`
      Parameters:
        `matchers` - The list containing the currently stored definition pattern matchers.
        `defsMap` - The definition map to parse.
      Returns:
        The map of the definitions not recognized as containing definition patterns.
