Constructor Detail

ERXNavigationItem

public ERXNavigationItem(NSDictionary values)

Method Detail
- meetsDisplayConditionsInComponent
```
public boolean meetsDisplayConditionsInComponent(NSKeyValueCodingAdditions context)
```
  Decides whether the item gets displayed at all. This is done by evaluating the boolean value of a "conditions" array in the definition file. eg: conditions = ("session.user.canEditThisStuff", "session.user.isEditor") will display the item only if the user can edit this stuff *and* is an editor. You can set OR conditions with conditions = (("session.user.canEditThisStuff", "session.user.isEditor"))
  
  Parameters:
  
  context - in which to evaluate visibility
  
  Returns:
  
  true if the item meets display conditions
