3.5.2.1.30. PasswordField
This is a text field that displays echo characters instead of those entered by a user.
XML name of the component: passwordField
.
Basically, PasswordField
is similar to TextField apart from the ability to set datatype
. PasswordField
is intended to work with text and entity attributes of type String
only.
Example:
<passwordField id="passwordField" caption="msg://name"/>
<button id="showPasswordBtn" caption="msg://buttonsName"/>
@Inject
private PasswordField passwordField;
@Inject
private Notifications notifications;
@Subscribe("showPasswordBtn")
protected void onShowPasswordBtnClick(Button.ClickEvent event) {
notifications.create()
.withCaption(passwordField.getValue())
.show();
}
The autocomplete
attribute allows you to enable saving passwords in the web browser. It is disabled by default.
The capsLockIndicator
attribute allows you to set the id
of a CapsLockIndicator component that should indicate Caps Lock state for this passwordField
. The Caps Lock state is handled only when the passwordField
is focused. When the field loses its focus, the state changes to "Caps Lock off".
Example:
<passwordField id="passwordField"
capsLockIndicator="capsLockIndicator"/>
<capsLockIndicator id="capsLockIndicator"
align="MIDDLE_CENTER"
capsLockOffMessage="Caps Lock is OFF"
capsLockOnMessage="Caps Lock is ON"/>
