Re: RFE: DataTable colgroup
We might add this to Wicket, can you please open a RFE and attach the appropriate classes?

RFE: DataTable colgroup
[https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-1069]
Hi!
I want to suggest an enhancement for the DataTable extension.
Right now it's only possible to style columns (width, alignment, color etc.) via
stylesheets. This has some not so nice implications IMHO:
- You have to extend the IStyledColumn to return the proper CSS class.
- You have to add a bunch of CSS classes to get the proper styles.
- You have redundancy in HTML output - which isn't necessary.
This is actually what colgroupcol/colgroup is meant to solve.
My suggestion:
Adding a 'addColGroup( ColGroup cg )'-feature, which actually lets you add x
ColGroups with n Cols on which you can use AttributeModifiers to have your
styles/classes/width-Attributes added.
A quick implementation would be this:
---[ColGroup.java]--
import java.util.List;
import org.apache.wicket.behavior.IBehavior;
import
org.apache.wicket.extensions.markup.html.repeater.data.table.AbstractToolbar;
import org.apache.wicket.extensions.markup.html.repeater.data.table.DataTable;
import org.apache.wicket.markup.html.WebMarkupContainer;
import org.apache.wicket.markup.repeater.RepeatingView;
public class ColGroup
extends AbstractToolbar
{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private int numCols;
private Col[] cols;
public ColGroup( DataTable datatable, int numCols )
{
super( datatable );
this.numCols = numCols;
}
public void onBeforeRender()
{
if( !hasBeenRendered() )
{
WebMarkupContainer colgroup = new WebMarkupContainer( colgroup );
for( IBehavior b : (ListIBehavior) getBehaviors() )
colgroup.add( b );
setRenderBodyOnly( true );
removeAll();
add( colgroup );
RepeatingView colgroupCols = new RepeatingView( elements );
colgroup.add( colgroupCols );
for( Col column : getCols() )
{
WebMarkupContainer item = new WebMarkupContainer(
colgroupCols.newChildId() );
colgroupCols.add( item );
item.add( column );
}
}
super.onBeforeRender();
}
public final Col[] getCols( )
{
if( cols == null )
{
cols = new Col[numCols];
for( int i = 0; i numCols; i++ )
cols[i] = new Col();
}
return(cols);
}
public final class Col
extends WebMarkupContainer
{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private Col()
{
super( col );
}
}
}
---[/ColGroup.java]--
---[ColGroup.html]--
wicket:panel
colgroup wicket:id=colgroup
wicket:container wicket:id=elementscol
wicket:id=col//wicket:container
/colgroup
/wicket:panel
---[/ColGroup.html]--
Usage:
ColGroup colgroup = new ColGroup( datatable, 4 );
colgroup.add( new SimpleAttributeModifier( style, border: solid 1px green;
) );
Col[] cols = colgroup.getCols();
cols[0].add( new SimpleAttributeModifier( width, 10% ) );
cols[1].add( new SimpleAttributeModifier( width, 35% ) );
cols[2].add( new SimpleAttributeModifier( width, 45% ) );
cols[3].add( new SimpleAttributeModifier( width, 10% ) );
datatable.addColGroup( colgroup );
Any thoughts?

Re: RFE: DataTable colgroup
I was thinking of implementing colgroup support, but I decided not to.
Colgroup as far as i can tell has serious styling limitation, which
only allows to specify very reduced subset of css to the colgroup.
