Method Details

createHeaders

public void createHeaders()

Description copied from interface: HasColumns

Create extra header rows if required here by invoking HasColumns.prependHeader() or HasColumns.appendHeader() (typically useful for creating column grouping etc.). The default implementation does nothing. This is invoked before HasColumns.createHeader().

getColumnField

protected com.vaadin.flow.component.HasValue<?,?> getColumnField(String columnName)

Description copied from class: EditableObjectGrid

Get the field for the column. (Used while editing the row). In general, it is not required to override this. If this method returns null, field will be created from the respective Object Editor.

Overrides:

getColumnField in class EditableObjectGrid<T extends StoredObject>

Parameters:

columnName - Column name for which field needs to be obtained.

Returns:

Default implementation returns null.

hideRowEditorButtons

public void hideRowEditorButtons()

Hide the Save/Cancel buttons when row editing is active.

add

public void add()

Add a new instance via the UI.

edit

public void edit()

Edit a selected instance via the UI.

delete

public void delete()

Delete a selected instance.

reload

public void reload()

Reload a selected instance. This will abandon all the changes already made to the instance. If the instance was a newly added one, it will be removed.

setReadOnly

public void setReadOnly(boolean readOnly)

Description copied from class: EditableObjectGrid

Set read only.

Overrides:

setReadOnly in class EditableObjectGrid<T extends StoredObject>

Parameters:

readOnly - If true, rows will not be editable.

clear

public void clear()

Description copied from class: AbstractEditableGrid

This method doesn't clear the items. Instead, it just invokes the AbstractEditableGrid.fireChanged(Object, int) method with null as the item value and EditorAction.ALL as the "change action". Subclasses should implement the real "clear" functionality.

Specified by:

clear in interface Collection<T extends StoredObject>

Specified by:

clear in interface List<T extends StoredObject>

Specified by:

clear in interface ObjectLoader<T extends StoredObject>

Overrides:

clear in class EditableObjectGrid<T extends StoredObject>

getObjectViewer

public ObjectEditor<T> getObjectViewer()

Get the viewer for this grid. If null is returned by this method a viewer will be automatically crated by creating an instance of the ObjectEditor.

Returns:

Default implementation returns null.

selected

public T selected()

Description copied from class: DataGrid

Get the currently selected instance. If nothing is selected, a warning message is displayed and null is returned. (If you simply want to a find the selected instance without displaying a warning message, you may use HasColumns.getSelected()).

Overrides:

selected in class DataGrid<T extends StoredObject>

Returns:

Selected instance or null.

isInvalid

public boolean isInvalid()

Check if this editor is in an invalid state or not. (It will be in invalid state if the current row editor can not be closed because the data is invalid).

Returns:

True/false.

setAllowReload

public void setAllowReload(boolean allowReload)

public final boolean isAllowView()

Can view instances?

Returns:

True/false.

setAllowView

aboutToSave

protected void aboutToSave(Transaction transaction)

Exception - if any error occurs and the save should be aborted.

skipSave

protected boolean skipSave(Transaction transaction,

Parameters:

transaction - Transaction.

object - Item being saved. (It may be still virtual).

Returns:

True/false.

Throws:

Exception - if any error occurs and the save should be aborted.

skipDelete

protected boolean skipDelete(Transaction transaction,
 T object)
                      throws Exception

Parameters:

transaction - Transaction.

object - Item being saved.

Returns:

True/false.

Throws:

Exception - if any error occurs and the save should be aborted.

saved

protected void saved(Transaction transaction,
 T object)

setSaver

public void setSaver(Function<EditableList<T>,Boolean> saver)

Set a saver so that the save() method can be customized.

Parameters:

saver - Set a saver that will be invoked to save the changes made.
