Yes, create an object that will have column1, etc as attributes, then
create a List<Word> and populate it with your source list however you want
to (preferably you might want to send this list like your CellTable will
use already populated from the server):
public class Word {
String column1;
String column2;
String column3;
String column4;
// add setters and getters
}
List<Word> wordList = new ArrayList<Word>(); // or whatever List
implementation you like/need
// populate wordList as needed from your source list(s) and add it to your
ListDataProvider.
// Create column1
TextColumn<Word> columnOne = new TextColumn<Word>() {
@Override public String getValue(Word word) { return word.getColumn1;
} };
