### LabelTag

    public LabelTag()

Method Detail

### setFor

    public void setFor(String forId)

  Set the value of the '`for`' attribute.

  Defaults to the value of `AbstractDataBoundFormElementTag.getPath()`; may be a runtime expression.

  Throws:
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if the supplied value is `null`

### getFor

    public String getFor()

  Get the value of the '`id`' attribute.

  May be a runtime expression.

### writeTagContent

    protected int writeTagContent(TagWriter tagWriter)
                           throws JspException

  Writes the opening '`label`' tag and forces a block tag so that body content is written correctly.

  Specified by:
    `writeTagContent` in class `AbstractFormTag`
  Returns:
    `Tag.EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE`
  Throws:
    `JspException`

### getName

    protected String getName()
                      throws JspException

  Overrides `getName()` to always return `null`, because the '`name`' attribute is not supported by the '`label`' tag.

  Overrides:
    `getName` in class `AbstractDataBoundFormElementTag`
  Returns:
    the value for the HTML '`name`' attribute
  Throws:
    `JspException`

### resolveFor

    protected String resolveFor()
                         throws JspException

  Determine the '`for`' attribute value for this tag, autogenerating one if none specified.

  Throws:
    `JspException`
  See Also:
    `getFor()`, `autogenerateFor()`

### autogenerateFor

    protected String autogenerateFor()
                              throws JspException

  Autogenerate the '`for`' attribute value for this tag.

  The default implementation delegates to `AbstractDataBoundFormElementTag.getPropertyPath()`, deleting invalid characters (such as "[" or "]").

  Throws:
    `JspException`

### doEndTag

    public int doEndTag()
                 throws JspException

  Close the '`label`' tag.
