## Method Detail

### getDefinitionId() Method

    public String getDefinitionId()

The definition id for the theme. This value is only valid in portal streaming mode.

#### Returns

The definition id of this theme

### getName() Method

    public String getName()

Returns the theme's name. This name uniquely identifies the theme and correlates to the subdirectory the theme can be found in for both skeleton and skin, if it exists in either.

#### Returns

The theme's unique name

### getThemePresentationContext(HttpServletRequest) Method

    public static ThemePresentationContext getThemePresentationContext(HttpServletRequest request)

This is a convenience method for returning a reference to the current `ThemePresentationContext`. Note this method will only work if called from within a portal (typically, from the theme.jsp skeleton). This method may return null if called when no appropriate context exists, but such a context should safely exist when being fetched from the associated skeleton JSP during normal portal rendering.

#### Parameters

request
  The current HTTPServletRequest instance

#### Returns

A reference to the current ThemePresentationContext, if any

### getThemeSkeletonPath() Method

    public String getThemeSkeletonPath()

The webapp-relative path to this theme's skeleton directory.

#### Returns

The theme's skeleton path

### getThemeSkinPath() Method

    public String getThemeSkinPath()

The webapp-relative path to this theme's skin directory.

#### Returns

The theme's skin path

### isUsingAltSkeleton() Method

    public boolean isUsingAltSkeleton()

Indicates whether or not this theme has a whole or partial set of alternate skeleton JSPs available. This value is determined dynamically by the presence or absence of such files in the theme's skeleton area.

#### Returns

True if alternate skeleton JSPs are in use

### isUsingAltSkin() Method

    public boolean isUsingAltSkin()

Indicates whether or not this theme has a whole or partial set of alternate skin resources available. This value is determined dynamically by the presence or absence of such files in the theme's skin area.

#### Returns

True if alternate skin resources are in use
