public abstract class BaseLabel
implements StyleInterface, URLInterface, com.sas.servlet.tbeans.TitleInterface

The BaseLabel is an abstract TransformationBean™ used to create a label.

Note that subclasses of this bean actually provide the markup rendering used in/with Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies. If you need to add support for a markup language that is not explicitly provided with AppDev Studio, then you must extend this class.

For More Information:

JSP custom tags provide an alternative to using the TransformationBeans™. Visit the Custom Tag Library Reference for additional information on the sas:Label custom tag.
