B4A Library [Class] Flexible Table

[mrodriguez]

Yes, there was an error in the code when hiding a column.
Version 1.31, in post #1, has been amended.

Thanks, i was using 1.30

Hi, Klaus.

Since in the Italian forum someone asked how to use the "Flexible Table" along with the RDC, I added a routine for this purpose: LoadRDCResult(Result As DBResult, AutomaticWidths As Boolean).

It is virtually identical to LoadSQLiteDB; In fact, you could groped to optimize the code between the two routines, but I did not have the patience.

If you like it or want to create a similar but better ...

Thanks

'load data from a RDC Request
'Result = DBResult object got from a RDC request
'AutomaticWidths  True > set the column widths automaticaly
Public Sub LoadRDCResult(Result As DBResult, AutomaticWidths As Boolean)
               
    cAutomaticWidths = AutomaticWidths
    NumberOfColumns = Result.Columns.Size
    innerClearAll(NumberOfColumns)
   
    Dim Headers(NumberOfColumns) As String
    Dim ColumnWidths(NumberOfColumns) As Int
    Dim HeaderWidths(NumberOfColumns) As Int
    Dim DataWidths(NumberOfColumns) As Int
    Dim col, row As Int
    Dim str As String
    For col = 0 To NumberOfColumns - 1
        Headers(col) = Result.Columns.GetKeyAt(col)
        If AutomaticWidths = False Then
            ColumnWidths(col) = 130dip
            HeaderWidths(col) = 130dip
            DataWidths(col) = 130dip
        Else
            HeaderWidths(col) = cvs.MeasureStringWidth(Headers(col), Typeface.DEFAULT, cTextSize) + 8dip + cLineWidth
            DataWidths(col) = 0
           
            Dim FieldValue As Object
            For row = 0 To Result.Rows.Size - 1
                Dim Record() As Object = Result.Rows.Get(row)
                FieldValue = Record(col)
                If GetType(FieldValue) = "java.lang.String" Then
                    DataWidths(col) = Max(DataWidths(col), cvs.MeasureStringWidth(str, Typeface.DEFAULT, cTextSize) + 8dip + cLineWidth)
                End If
            Next
            ColumnWidths(col) = Max(HeaderWidths(col), DataWidths(col))
        End If
    Next
    SetHeader(Headers)
    SetColumnsWidths(ColumnWidths)
   
    For Each Record() As Object In Result.Rows
        Dim R(NumberOfColumns) As String
        Dim FieldV As String
        For col = 0 To NumberOfColumns - 1
            FieldV = Record(col)
            R(col) = FieldV
        Next
        AddRow(R)
    Next

End Sub

Hi Luca
I looked to add your routine into the Table class.
Unfortunately there is a problem because the routine uses the specific DBResult Type in the Sub declaration:
Public Sub LoadRDCResult(Result As DBResult, AutomaticWidths As Boolean)

- For users not using the LoadRDCResult routine would need the Type declaration in Class_Globals
Type DBResult (Tag As Object, Columns As Map, Rows As List)
Without it, an error is raised.

- But the users using the LoadRDCResult routine already have the Type declaration somewhere else and will get an error key aleady exists.

So I don't want add the routine into the Class but copy your code in the first post.

Hi, how can I remove all rows from a data table?
I get an error java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: length=12; index=-1 with this:

For i=Table1.Size-1 To 0 Step -1
Table1.RemoveRow(i)
Next

Thanks and congratulations for this library.

 

[klaus]

Table1.ClearAll

 

[LorenzoTRANSFEREX]

Table1.ClearAll

That's incredible, it was the first thing I tried, but it didn't work for me.
And now works fine!

Thanks

Hello, let's say i have 2 columns one for names and the other for grades , how can i sort the table by the grades from the Highest to the Lowest ?

I tried all kind of sorting but seems not working (asc - desc ) only

 

[Reviewnow]

Select * from mytable order by grades desc

 

[itgirl]

@Reviewnow

that would work great if i'm using sql but sadly i'm importing the data from CSV file

 

[klaus]

Table1.sortTable(ColumnNumber, False)
ColumnNumber = number of the column
True = asc
False = desc

Note, that when you click on a column header this column will be sorted.

@klaus
Yeah i already tried this as well, but the column has numbers

100
101
1

and the sorting ( Table1.sortTable(ColumnNumber, False) ) or ( Table1.sortTable(ColumnNumber, True) ) return the numbers sorted as strings not as numbers from highest to lowest ...


i mean if the Grades column has

2323
22
333

after sorting i get

22
2323
333

but i need

2323
333
22

 

[Mahares]

To sort by a column that is a string and has all numbers, you can use the below SQLite statement. It will sort the grades for you in the proper order:

txt = "SELECT CAST(GRADE AS INTEGER) AS MYGRADE, NAME FROM tblGrades ORDER BY MYGRADE DESC"  
Cursor1=SQL1.ExecQuery(txt)

@ Mahares

Thank you for your reply but again that would be useful if i was using sql which im not im using a simple loadcsv into table

 

[LucaMs]

Can you modify your csv file? IF you can set:
" 22"
" 333"
"2323"

(same lenght)

then you've solved


[UPDATED] Most likely it will be enough to right-align the column using SetCellAlignments

 

[klaus]

Try the attached project.
I added Sub sortTableNum(col As Int, dir As Boolean) a routine allowing to sort numeric values.
It includes a small csv file with a Grades column.

 

[LucaMs]

I thought there was a way to align the data in a single column; I looked at the code and it seems to me that it is possible for all columns or a single cell.

It would be useful, in that case.

[but it would be necessary to fill the values with a few spaces left]

@klaus

OMG ur amazing with ur Libs, Examples and Codes. your example was exactly what i was talking about , thank you very much it was a great help and i learned alot from ur simple yet amazing code i think it should be included in the class coz it helps alot , thank you Kalus

 

[LucaMs]

Klaus,

given that in the future I'll want to add some function to your class , I allowed myself to organize it using the Regions (as I understand it better).

Use ALT + E - O - C and see everything in blocks is very useful.

 

[klaus]

@LucaMs
This routine
'sets the cell alignment for each column each column can have a diferent alignment
'Example:'<code>'Dim alignments() As Int
'alignments = Array As Int (Bit.Or(Gravity.LEFT, Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL), Gravity.CENTER, Bit.Or(Gravity.RIGHT, Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL), Gravity.CENTER)
'Table1.CellAlignments(alignments)</code>
Public Sub SetCellAlignments(Alignments() As Int)allows to set the gravity of each column.

 

[LucaMs]

@LucaMs
This routine SetCellAlignments(Alignments() As Int) allows to set the gravity of each column.

Yes, I saw it... after
