Re: DataGrid vs CellTable

Nothing fills in, no values go into the table, it is empty.  Thus "does not work".  The only difference is the creation of the object.

So does this means they cannot be used interchangeably?  For instance, I have a table.  When I define it as a "CellTable", it works fine.  But when I simple change it to a DataGrid ( no other changes ), it does not work.

"Does not work" is not really helpful.

 

Your comments suggest that I need to do some extra steps for DataGrid.  I am just trying to confirm my understanding.  Thanks

• CellTable example:

private AbstractCellTable<FacilityModel> facilityTable;
facilityTable = new CellTable<FacilityModel>();

• DataGrid example:

private AbstractCellTable<FacilityModel> facilityTable;
facilityTable = new DataGrid<FacilityModel>();

As stated above, the ONLY difference is the creation statement, which I highlighted in yellow above.  Thanks.

DataGrid and CellTable both display data in similar ways; but DataGrid has fixed column headers with scrollable content (have a look at the Showcase: http://gwt.google.com/samples/Showcase/Showcase.html#!CwCellTable vs. http://gwt.google.com/samples/Showcase/Showcase.html#!CwDataGrid )

Note that DataGrid comes with a few constraints: it's a RequiresResize so it must be put inside a ProvidesResize widget or be explicitly sized, and it has fixed-width columns.

So, which is the parent widget of facilityTable?
