Class

views_handler

Base handler, from which all the other handlers are derived. It creates a common interface to create consistency amongst handlers and data.

Code

public function init(&$view, &$options) {
    $this->view =& $view;
    $display_id = $this->view->current_display;
    // Check to see if this handler type is defaulted. Note that
    // we have to do a lookup because the type is singular but the
    // option is stored as the plural.
    // If the 'moved to' keyword moved our handler, let's fix that now.
    if (isset($this->actual_table)) {
        $options['table'] = $this->actual_table;
    }
    if (isset($this->actual_field)) {
        $options['field'] = $this->actual_field;
    }
    $types = views_object_types();
    $plural = $this->handler_type;
    if (isset($types[$this->handler_type]['plural'])) {
        $plural = $types[$this->handler_type]['plural'];
    }
    if ($this->view->display_handler
        ->is_defaulted($plural)) {

        $display_id,
        $this->handler_type,
        $options['table'],
        $options['id'],
    );
    $this->unpack_options($this->options, $options);
    // This exist on most handlers, but not all. So they are still optional.
    if (isset($options['table'])) {
        $this->table = $options['table'];
