Vaadin - GRID Component

Image
Introduction Vaadin 7.4 was recently released and it includes a new component called the GRID . It represents a 'Spreadsheet" type model from a UI perspective, however I think it lacks a lot of features you would expect from this type of component. Maybe this component will evolve over time and it will begin to have the functions that you expect from a spreadsheet. ( note: there is a commercial add on called the Spreadsheet from Vaadin ) Use Case The use case I am demonstrating below is a simple grid showing projected sales of Widgets over a five year period.

In this post I will give a very short overview on how to filter the results of a Table Query. A filter can be applied to a SQL Container so that the results of that Table Query can be narrowed to a specific set of rows within the table. For example, lets assume you have created a Table Query on an address table within your database. TableQuery q = new TableQuery("address", connectionPool); Your requirement is to filter the data within that Table Query to a specific suburb, street and postcode. To achieve that requirement you create three filters using the Compare.Equal object. The values for suburb, postcode and street are passed in as parameters. Compare.Equal suburbFilter = new Compare.Equal("suburb", suburb); Compare.Equal postcodeFilter = new Compare.Equal("postcode", postcode); Compare....
