Detailed Description

Field gadget class.

Library: dbgadget

The IliTableGadget class defines gadgets that can edit and display tables. It works in conjunction with the IliTable class.

About clipboard

The table gadget can copy the contents of a given selection to the clipboard in the form of a character string. Each value in the selection is formatted according to the format and input mask of the column to which this column belongs. If the selection contains more than one column or more than one row, then each row is separated by a new line character and each column is separated by a tab character.

About Callbacks

Some virtual member functions described in this documentation are normally called by the table gadget itself when certain events occur. The behavior of the table gadget can be customized by defining a subclass of IliTableGadget and overriding these virtual member functions. Alternatively, it is possible to customize the behavior of a table gadget without subclassing. This can be done by setting callbacks (see the IlvGraphic::setCallback() member function).

The default implementation of these virtual member functions is to call the corresponding callback.

Accessors

Accessors provide a scriptable and uniform way to inspect and modify an object by using its base class methods IlvValueInterface::queryValue(), IlvValueInterface::queryValues(), IlvValueInterface::changeValue(), IlvValueInterface::changeValues(). This class inherits the accessors of its superclasses IlvGadget and IliFieldItf, and adds the following ones:

[boundToDataSource] By default, a table gadget has the same current row as the data source to which it is connected. When you move to another row through the data source, the table gadget's current row changes accordingly and vice-versa. Also, if you start editing the current row through the data source, you see your changes in the table gadget even before the changes are validated, and vice-versa.
By setting the boundToDataSource property to false, you can have the table gadget manage its own notion of the current row, independently of its data source.

[columnGeometryLocal] By default, the table gadget shows the columns in the same order and with the same width as they are defined in the underlying table object. Consequently, if you connect two table gadgets to the same data source, each time the user resizes a column in one table gadget, the same column is resized in the other. This is not necessarily desirable, especially if auto fit mode is enabled.
By setting the columnGeometryLocal property to true, you can have the table gadget itself manage columns visibility, widths, and ordering. In this way, it is possible to have more than one table gadget showing different views (in terms of columns) of the same data source.
Here is an example in Rogue Wave Views Script:

var tgLeft = Application.MyPanel.LeftTG;
tgLeft.dataSourceName = "EMP";
tgLeft.columnGeometryLocal = true;
tgLeft.ID.visible = false;
var tgRight = Application.MyPanel.RightTG;
tgRight.dataSourceName = "EMP";
tgLeft.columnGeometryLocal = true;
tgLeft.ID.visible = true;
// now, the "ID" column is visible in one
// table-gadget but not in the other.

[addErrorSink] The sink parameter can be one of the following:

Callbacks

There are many callbacks that you can use to customize a table gadget. Be aware that these callbacks are called in very specific contexts that are elaborated in the description for each callback.

Consequently, great care should be taken not to call directly or indirectly methods that would completely change the context in which the callback was called. For instance, you should not call the selectCell method from inside a FetchRow callback since this callback can be called asynchronously.

Many of these callbacks exist also on the IliDataSource class. If the table gadget is bound to its data source, it is the callbacks that are defined on the data source that are called and not those of the table gadget.

If, on the contrary, the table gadget is not bound to its data source, the callbacks that are defined on the table gadget will be called when the event originates from the table gadget and those defined on the data source will be called when the event originates from the data source.

The description for each callback below explains whether the callback depends in this way on the boundToDataSource property.

Name Notes
CancelEdits Only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called just after the edits in the current row have been cancelled.
DeleteRow Called just before a row in the underlying table is deleted. The index of the row that is to be deleted can be obtained by looking at the deletedRow property.
DoubleClick Called when the user double-clicks on the table gadget.
EnterCell Called just after a new cell is entered.
EnterInsertMode Only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called just after the current row buffer becomes modified when the current row is the insert row.
EnterRow Called just after a new row is entered.
EnterUpdateMode Only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called just after the current row buffer becomes modified when the current row is not the insert row.
FetchRow Called just after a new row has been retrieved from a remote database and cached in the underlying table. The index of the row that has just been fetched can be obtained by looking at the fetchedRow property. See [FetchRow] below.
GetCellPalette Called when the text and fill palettes of a cell are required, either to draw the cell or to configure the cell editor. The cell for which the palettes are required is described, along with other useful information, in the object obtained by looking at the cellPaletteStruct property.
PrepareDeleteRow This callback is only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called when the user attempts to delete a row through this table gadget. The index of the row that is to be deleted can be obtained by looking at the deletedRow property.
The row deletion can be prevented by calling the dontDeleteRow() method. In addition, the addErrorMessage() method may be called to describe the reason of the failure. See [PrepareDeleteRow] below.
PrepareInsert Only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called when an attempt is made to validate the current row when the current row is the insert row. This callback is called in addition to the ValidateRow callback. The row validation can be prevented by calling the dontValidateRow() method. In this case, the addErrorMessage() method should also be called to provide an error message to the user. Alternatively, it is possible to change some of the values in the current row before it is inserted in the underlying table.
PrepareUpdate Only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called when an attempt is made to validate the current row when the current row is not the insert row. This callback is called in addition to the ValidateRow callback. The row validation can be prevented by calling the dontValidateRow() method. In this case, the addErrorMessage() method should also be called to provide an error message to the user. Alternatively, it is possible to change some of the values in the current row before it is updated in the underlying table.
QuitCell Called just before the selection moves out of a cell.
QuitInsertMode This callback is only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called just after the current row has been successfully validated when the current row is the insert row.
QuitRow Called just before the selection moves out of a row.
QuitUpdateMode Only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called just after the current row has been successfully validated when the current is not the insert row.
SelectionChange Called just after the selection has changed (whatever the change).
ValidateCell Called when an attempt is made to move the selection out of a cell. The cell validation can be prevented by calling the dontValidateCell() method. In this case, the addErrorMessage() method should also be called to provide an error message to the user.
ValidateRow Only available if boundToDataSource is false. Called when an attempt is made to validate the current row. The row validation can be prevented by calling the dontValidateRow() method. In this case, the addErrorMessage() method should also be called to provide an error message to the user. Alternatively, it is possible to change some of the values in the current row before it is transmitted to the underlying table. This callback is called when an existing row is being updated or when a new row is being inserted. See [ValidateRow] below.

[FetchRow] Here is an example of a FetchRow callback:

var counter = 0;
function OnFetchRow(tg) {
var column = tg.COUNTER.tableColumn;
column.setInCache(tg.fetchedRow, ++counter);
}

Note how it uses the setInCache() method of IliTableColumn to store a value in the local row cache of the table object.

[PrepareDeleteRow] Here is an example of a PrepareDeleteRow callback:

function OnPrepareDeleteRow(tg) {
if (tg.deletedRow == 0) {
tg.dontDeleteRow();
tg.addError("Leaf node cannot be deleted.");
}
}

[ValidateRow] Here is an example of a ValidateRow callback:

function OnValidateRow(tg) {
var capacity = tg.CAPACITY.value;
var volume = tg.VOLUME.value;
if (volume > capacity) {
tg.dontValidateRow();
tg.addError("Volume must be less than Capacity");
}
else {
tg.LASTMODIF.value = new Date();
}
}

§ validate()

virtual IlBoolean IliTableGadget::validate ( IlBoolean  interactive = IlFalse)
virtual

Validates the current row.

Validation proceeds in the following manner:

  • If the row buffer of the table gadget is unmodified, validation succeeds immediately.
  • Otherwise, some system defined constraints are checked on the current row buffer. If these constraints are not satisfied, validation fails.
  • The onValidateRow() virtual method is then called, which checks any application defined constraints. If these are not satisfied, it calls the dontValidateRow() member function, and validation fails.
  • One of the onPrepareInsert() or onPrepareUpdate() virtual member functions is then called (depending on whether the current row is an inserted row).
  • A new row is then inserted into the underlying table, or an existing row is updated in the underlying table (depending on whether the current row is an inserted row). If successful, one of the onQuitInsertMode() or onQuitUpdateMode() is called and IlTrue is returned.

If successful, the row buffer of the table gadget becomes unmodified.

If the interactive parameter is IlTrue, any errors that may occur are automatically reported to the user by calling the reportErrors() member function. If the interactive parameter is IlFalse, errors are not reported.

Note that if the table gadget is bound to a data source, the onValidateRow(), onPrepareInsert(), onPrepareUpdate(), onQuitInsertMode(), and onQuitUpdateMode() virtual member functions are called on the data source, instead of on the table gadget.

Parameters
interactiveThe interactive flag.
Returns
IlTrue if successful.
