public abstract class TableView
extends BoxView

Implements View interface for a table, that is composed of an element structure where the child elements of the element this view is responsible for represent rows and the child elements of the row elements are cells. The cell elements can have an arbitrary element structure under them, which will be built with the ViewFactory returned by the getViewFactory method.

    TABLE
      ROW
        CELL
        CELL
      ROW
        CELL
        CELL

 

This is implemented as a hierarchy of boxes, the table itself is a vertical box, the rows are horizontal boxes, and the cells are vertical boxes. The cells are allowed to span multiple columns and rows. By default, the table can be thought of as being formed over a grid (i.e. somewhat like one would find in gridbag layout), where table cells can request to span more than one grid cell. The default horizontal span of table cells will be based upon this grid, but can be changed by reimplementing the requested span of the cell (i.e. table cells can have independent spans if desired).

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor	Description
TableView(Element elem)	Constructs a TableView for the given element.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
protected SizeRequirements	calculateMinorAxisRequirements(int axis, SizeRequirements r)	Calculate the requirements for the minor axis.
protected TableView.TableCell	createTableCell(Element elem)	Deprecated. Table cells can now be any arbitrary View implementation and should be produced by the ViewFactory rather than the table.
protected TableView.TableRow	createTableRow(Element elem)	Creates a new table row.
protected View	getViewAtPosition(int pos, Rectangle a)	Fetches the child view that represents the given position in the model.
protected void	layoutColumns(int targetSpan, int[] offsets, int[] spans, SizeRequirements[] reqs)	Lays out the columns to fit within the given target span.
protected void	layoutMinorAxis(int targetSpan, int axis, int[] offsets, int[] spans)	Perform layout for the minor axis of the box (i.e. the axis orthogonal to the axis that it represents).
void	replace(int offset, int length, View[] views)	Change the child views.
