Class GeneratedPropertyContainer

java.lang.Object
  com.vaadin.data.util.AbstractContainer
      com.vaadin.data.util.GeneratedPropertyContainer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Container, Container.Filterable, Container.Indexed, Container.ItemSetChangeNotifier, Container.Ordered, Container.PropertySetChangeNotifier, Container.Sortable, java.io.Serializable

public class GeneratedPropertyContainer
extends AbstractContainer
implements Container.Indexed, Container.Sortable, Container.Filterable, Container.PropertySetChangeNotifier, Container.ItemSetChangeNotifier

Container wrapper that adds support for generated properties. This container only supports adding new generated properties. Adding new normal properties should be done for the wrapped container.

Removing properties from this container does not remove anything from the wrapped container but instead only hides them from the results. These properties can be returned to this container by calling addContainerProperty(Object, Class, Object) with same property id which was removed.

If wrapped container is Filterable and/or Sortable it should only be handled through this container as generated properties need to be handled in a specific way when sorting/filtering.

Items returned by this container do not support adding or removing properties. Generated properties are always read-only. Trying to make them editable throws an exception.

public java.util.Collection<?> getItemIds()

Description copied from interface: Container

Gets the ID's of all visible (after filtering and sorting) Items stored in the Container. The ID's cannot be modified through the returned collection.

If the container is Container.Ordered, the collection returned by this method should follow that order. If the container is Container.Sortable, the items should be in the sorted order.

Returns:

number of Items in the Container

containsId

public boolean containsId(java.lang.Object itemId)

Description copied from interface: Container

Tests if the Container contains the specified Item.

Filtering can hide items so that they will not be visible through the container API, and this method should respect visibility of items (i.e. only indicate visible items as being in the container) if feasible for the container.

Specified by:

containsId in interface Container

Parameters:

itemId - ID the of Item to be tested

Returns:

boolean indicating if the Container holds the specified Item

This functionality is optional.

Specified by:

addItem in interface Container

Returns:

ID of the newly created Item, or null in case of a failure

Throws:

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - if adding an item without an explicit item ID is not supported by the container

                   throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException

Description copied from interface: Container

Removes the Item identified by ItemId from the Container.

Containers that support filtering should also allow removing an item that is currently filtered out.

This functionality is optional.

Specified by:

removeItem in interface Container

Parameters:

itemId - ID of the Item to remove

Returns:

true if the operation succeeded, false if not

Throws:

Description copied from interface: Container.Indexed

Get numberOfItems consecutive item ids from the container, starting with the item id at startIndex.

Implementations should return at most numberOfItems item ids, but can contain less if the container has less items than required to fulfill the request. The returned list must hence contain all of the item ids from the range:

startIndex to max(startIndex + (numberOfItems-1), container.size()-1).

The indices of the item currently in the given position and all the following items are incremented.

This method should apply filters to the added item after inserting it, possibly hiding it immediately. If the container is being sorted, the item may be added at the correct sorted position instead of the given position. See Container.Indexed, Container.Ordered, Container.SimpleFilterable and Container.Sortable for more information.

Specified by:

addItemAt in interface Container.Indexed

Parameters:

index - Index (in the filtered and sorted view) to add the new item.

Returns:

item id of the created item or null if the operation fails.

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - if the operation is not supported by the container

getWrappedContainer

public Container.Indexed getWrappedContainer()

Returns the original underlying container.

Returns:

the original underlying container
