[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-284?page=comments#action_12444550 ] Gary Gregory commented on LANG-284: -----------------------------------
I think we are going towards a whole new .table package. I like the idea of a table model with an XML and HTML writer classes on the side. TableModel, XmlTableWriter, HtmlTableWriter. As soon as you say HTML, I am thinking that XML is enough since I can just apply an XSLT later. Opening the door to colors, fonts, borders, etc seems like a big job. You'd also might want a TableColumn class to hold name, data type, etc. > TextTable for printing a fixedlength columns format text tables > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LANG-284 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-284 > Project: Commons Lang > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 2.2 > Reporter: David Leal > Fix For: 3.0 > > Attachments: TestTextTable.java, TestTextTable.out, TextTable.java > > > Just to suggest adding a TextTable class for printing in text (ASCII) format > fixed columns table.
