public class DataGrid<T>
extends AbstractCellTable<T>
implements RequiresResize

A tabular view with a fixed header and footer section and a scrollable data section in the middle. This widget supports paging and columns.

Columns

The Column class defines the Cell used to render a column. Implement Column.getValue(Object) to retrieve the field value from the row object that will be rendered in the Cell.

Headers and Footers

A Header can be placed at the top (header) or bottom (footer) of the DataGrid. You can specify a header as text using AbstractCellTable.addColumn(Column, String), or you can create a custom Header that can change with the value of the cells, such as a column total. The Header will be rendered every time the row data changes or the table is redrawn. If you pass the same header instance (==) into adjacent columns, the header will span the columns.

#setMinimumTableWidth(double, Unit), #setTableWidth(double, Unit)

onResize

public void onResize()

Description copied from interface: RequiresResize

This method must be called whenever the implementor's size has been modified.

Specified by:

onResize in interface RequiresResize

removeColumnStyleName

public void removeColumnStyleName(int index,
                                  String styleName)

styleName - the style name to remove

setAlwaysShowScrollBars

public void setAlwaysShowScrollBars(boolean alwaysShowScrollBars)

Sets whether this grid always shows its scroll bars, or only when necessary.

Parameters:

alwaysShowScrollBars - true to show scroll bars at all times

setEmptyTableWidget

public void setEmptyTableWidget(Widget widget)

Description copied from class: AbstractCellTable

Set the widget to display when the table has no rows.

Overrides:

setEmptyTableWidget in class AbstractCellTable<T>

Parameters:

widget - the empty table widget, or null to disable

setLoadingIndicator

public void setLoadingIndicator(Widget widget)

Description copied from class: AbstractCellTable

Set the widget to display when the data is loading.

Overrides:

setLoadingIndicator in class AbstractCellTable<T>

Parameters:

widget - the loading indicator, or null to disable

setMinimumTableWidth

public void setMinimumTableWidth(double value,
                                 Style.Unit unit)

Set the minimum width of the tables in this widget. If the widget become narrower than the minimum width, a horizontal scrollbar will appear so the user can scroll horizontally.

Note that this method is not supported in IE6 and earlier versions of IE.

Parameters:

value - the width

unit - the unit of the width

See Also:

#setTableWidth(double, Unit)

setTableWidth

public void setTableWidth(double value,
                          Style.Unit unit)

Set the width of the tables in this widget. By default, the width is not set and the tables take the available width.

The table width is not the same as the width of this widget. If the tables are narrower than this widget, there will be a gap between the table and the edge of the widget. If the tables are wider than this widget, a horizontal scrollbar will appear so the user can scroll horizontally.

If your table has many columns and you want to ensure that the columns are not truncated, you probably want to use #setMinimumTableWidth(double, Unit) instead. That will ensure that the table is wide enough, but it will still allow the table to expand to 100% if the user has a wide screen.

Note that setting the width in percentages will not work on older versions of IE because it does not account for scrollbars when calculating the width.

Parameters:

value - the width

unit - the unit of the width

See Also:

#setMinimumTableWidth(double, Unit)
