Hi,
I have a similar need and tried the suggestion of using DataTable's apis as
follows:
setValue(row1, column0, "MYNODEID") and
setFormattedValue(row1, column0, "NODE FORMATTED VALUE");
Doing this maintains parent child hierarchy only for one level (the child
and its parent) and breaks the hierarchy below that. Meaning there are more
than one root nodes with its children rendered in the OrgChart.
What works is using the following APIs on DataTable:
1. Create a Property to attach to every row that carries the NodeID (or any
other specific information) we need for each row
Properties rowProperties = Properties.create();
rowProperties.set("KEYNAME", "MYNODEID");
2. Set this property to a specific cell as follows:
setCell(row1, column0, "SOMEVALUE", "NODE FORMATTED VALUE", rowProperties);
Now, with this set for each row on the Node selection event handler it can
be accessed from the underlying table as follows:
String NodeId = dataTable.getProperty(row1, column0, "KEYNAME");
This works for me.
However wondering if the implementation of setValue and setFormattedValue
in DataTable is somehow broken ?
Thanks,
Sangeetha
