Jeff,
During tests I found an issue. It only happens with the first page and when
the user clicks on the next page. What happens is that the next page that
appears is page 3 (page 2 is skipped).
I refined a bit my method letting it as follows: (I assume that the first
row has index 0):
public void paginatorAction(ActionEvent event) {
ScrollerActionEvent scrollerAction = (ScrollerActionEvent)
event;
String clickedFacet = scrollerAction.getScrollerfacet();
int pageClicked = scrollerAction.getPageIndex();
//Means a facet was clicked
if (clickedFacet != null) {
if (clickedFacet.equals("next")) {
_rowIndex = _rowIndex + _rowsPerPage;
} else if (clickedFacet.equals("previous")) {
_rowIndex = _rowIndex - _rowsPerPage;
} else if (clickedFacet.equals("first")) {
_rowIndex = 0;
} else if (clickedFacet.equals("last")) {
_rowIndex = (_rowData.getRowCount() -
getLastPageRows());
} else if (clickedFacet.equals("fastr")) {
_rowIndex = (_rowIndex -
PAGINATOR_FAST_STEP*_rowsPerPage);
if (_rowIndex < 0) {
_rowIndex = 0;
}
} else if (clickedFacet.equals("fastf")) {
_rowIndex = (_rowIndex +
PAGINATOR_FAST_STEP*_rowsPerPage);
if (_rowIndex > (_rowData.getRowCount() -
getLastPageRows())) {
_rowIndex = (_rowData.getRowCount()
- getLastPageRows());
}
}
} else {
//Means a pageNumber was clicked
_rowIndex = (pageClicked*_rowsPerPage -
_rowsPerPage);
}
}
During debugging I check the value of rowIndex and it corresponds to the
first index of the second page but it skips that page and shows page 3. Any
idea what is happening here?

Jorge Vásquez

Asunto: Re: Accessing datascroller paginator variables
Thanks JV,
If you have time, could you add a section about this approach to that
wiki page? [1] I think this would be a great addition, as it certainly
gives people more options.
We will need to come up with some intuitive section headings, separating
the different approaches for clarity.
I think the most fundamental difference between our solutions is that
mine revolves around the concept of marking or selecting a row. This
marking is performed externally to the datascroller: through clicking a
commandLink or executing some code in an action method. When the user
returns from another page, they will be shown the datatable page which
includes the row they marked. (whether or not it's the last one they
viewed)
Your solution allows the current dataScroller page to be persisted much
more directly. When the user returns from another page, they will be
shown the datatable page which they last viewed.
I think certainly that some users will prefer one solution, while others
will have a use case that requires the other. Having both on that wiki
would be great. Of course, we need to format it well and explain it so
that people know what the differences are.
