COMPONENT FLAGS

A component can have a different flags in it's static settings (getSettings function). The main advantage of those flags is that they are static and so can be cached for efficient usage.

Example:

public static function getSettings()
{
    $ret = parent::getSettings();
    ...
    $ret['flags']['hasFulltext'] = true;
    return $ret;
}

This is a list of available component flags:

• hasFulltext (component can add custom contents to the fulltext index)
• skipFulltext (skip fulltext indexing for complete page when this component exists)
• skipFulltextRecursive (skip fulltext indexing for complete page and child pages when this component exists)
• usesFulltext (component uses the fulltext index, if set events are processed)
• hasLanguage (component has getLanguage method, used by translation system)
• hasAvailableLanguages (component has static getAvailableLanguages)
• hasBaseProperties (component has getBaseProperty($propertyName), used eg. by language)
• subroot
• noIndex (add noindex meta tag)
• hasHome
• metaTags
• hasAlternativeComponent
• processInput (component has processInput method)
• forwardProcessInput (component has getForwardProcessInputComponents method)
• chainedType
• menuCategory
• resetMaster (component has own Master.tpl and master templates above won't be used)
• hasIsVisibleDynamic (component has isVisibleDynamic method implemented to get hidden dynamically)
• hasAnchors (if set to true getAnchors() has to be implemented so that Kwc_Basic_LinkTag_Intern_Component can link to an anchor)
• assetsPackage (to split assets in multiple packages) (since 4.1)
• searchContent (deprecated)
• processMailRedirectInput (for Mails to get recipient data passed as GET parameter) (since 4.3)
