What quickly comes to mind is
interface datasource {
long count();
// access to lv would allow retrieval of sort order/filter info
list retrieve(int first, int count, ListView lv);
// not sure how these 2 would work of if they are necessary, but
maybe they can help to eliminate index based approach
serializable objecttoid(object obj);
object idtoobject(serializable id);
}
I wish I had enough time right now to create an example and confirm that
something like this would work and/or is adequate, but I have meetings all
day starting in 10 mins ;( maybe tomorrow.
