public interface ParamHolder
extends ValueHolder

This interface represents a (request) parameter holder which extends ValueHolder with getName() method to obtain the parameter name associated with the parameter value and changes the getLocalValue() method to return the original, unconverted value and changes the getValue() method to return the converted value. This is used in among others the Faces.getBookmarkableURL(String, java.util.Collection, boolean).
