Thanks Amy. This helped. It actually ends up looking like this:
iconRendererProvider.renderer = new ClassFactory(myClass);
The other issue I'm having is displaying images since
AdvancedDataGridItemRenderer extends UITextField. Do I have to extend
AdvancedDataGridGroupItemRenderer in order to display images? The DataGrid
component doesn't seem to have this option at all.
Thanks again,
Brandon

>From the error, you probably need something more like this:
var iconRendererProvide r = new ClassFactory
(AdvancedDataGridRe ndererProvider) ;
iconRendererProvide r.properties = {columnIndex: 0, columnSpan:1,
dataField:'icon' , renderer:com. yourorg.views. myClass}
The help for AdvanceDataGridItem Renderer doesn't appear to exist on
my system, so sorry if this misses the mark.
