Hi,

Mirko build in SWT.Virtual a while ago for Grid. He also did some benchmarking 
against the TableViewer.  I’m not sure if he blogged about it. However, I don’t 
think the RAP team adopted the virtual/lazy capabilities.

In addition to Grid we also have XViewer. I’m not sure if this runs in RAP but 
you can take a look at that viewer as well.

Best regards,

Wim

Hi,

From my knowledge NatTable has a better performance for huge data sets. And it 
provides a lot of additional features out of the box, e.g. filter row, groupby, 
print, export, summary row etc. For a better overview of the features you 
should step through the examples application.

To be honest, I am not very familiar with Nebula Grid and therefore can't tell 
anything about the feature set there. I just used it once for performance 
comparison. Using it is similar to the JFace viewer. NatTable has a completely 
different approach in the architecture, and is therefore more difficult to get 
started with.

Not sure about your use cases and requirements, but compared to the effort for 
making NatTable RAP ready, I would go for some other table widget and see if it 
provides what I need.

Greez,
Dirk

Hi Wim, Dirk,
after reading this
http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/2014/10/15/rap-3-0-m2-whats-new-in-widgets/
I am wondering what are the features that NatTable provides in addition to 
Nebula GridViewer.
Can you help for a comparison?

As for the NatTable, I made a try and imported 
org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.nattable.core into a RAP 3.0.2 workspace: most of 
the problems pointed out by Angelo in 2012 are still there. I commented out the 
parts with errors and was able to see something somehow

but it is totally unusable this way.
Probably going through each commented part with attention may be a way.
But must admit that GridViewer, with all the JFace viewer powerful concepts, 
raises the doubt about going on in this direction.

I don't want to put the two projects one against the other: just would like to 
understand them better.

Cheers

Vincenzo

I'm not sure. It is 5 years old, so I think (and hope) the issues with missing 
API is gone with a more current version of RAP.
Also the hint to use Require-Bundle instead of Import-Package is something I 
will probably never add to one of the projects I'm responsible for. ;-)

Thanks Dirk,

I re-read that thread and Angelo’s answers looks very useful.

To be honest, I can't remember anymore. But probably reading the configuration 
on rendering constantly.

As I am not familiar with RAP, therefore I can't tell anything. And it was 
years ago when I was last contacted on that topic by someone from the RAP team.

There was a discussion about 5 years ago, without any further conclusion: 
http://markmail.org/message/7fcad6ofm3vbex5p

Also there are some posts by the RAP team saying that NatTable is not supported 
as it doesn't fit:

http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/2014/10/15/rap-3-0-m2-whats-new-in-widgets/
https://www.eclipse.org/rap/noteworthy/3.0/

I even heard that they added support for KTable, so actually I'm not sure what 
the real blocker is. But that is my state of information.

What architecture would that be? You are calling the back-end many times 
because of the layers?

Hi,

The short answer is no. The RAP team once said that the architecture does not 
match.

I never made any attempts to make it work, nor did the RAP team look closer 
afaik.

Greez,
Dirk

Hi all,
we at RCP Vision would like to use the NatTable in RAP.
Are there any resource on some effort spent in this direction (a minimal 
example or so)?

Thank you very much in advance.

Vincenzo
