Interfacepublic interface IContextLookupChainLink extends IContextLookup

An interface for instances that can be used to chain lookup operations.

Implementations will perform the lookup in the IContextLookup#lookup method and delegate to the next implementation in the chain if they cannot satisfy the request.

public function setNext(next:IContextLookup):void

This method is called by the framework to register the fallback lookup implementation that should be used during a call to IContextLookup#Lookup/.

If the implementation cannot satisfy the query, it will use the provided context as a fallback. Note that implementations can also use the results returned by the next lookup and decorate it appropriately.

Parameters
next:IContextLookup — The context to use as a fallback.
