B4A Library [Class] Flexible Table

This thread will be used by Erel, Melamoud and myself to discuss / post new releases of the Table class.

The table class is a flexible UI component that enable scrollable table like UI, with sortable columns, multiselect rows etc

the table is very efficient, maintaining labels only for visible rows

old thread with details : http://www.b4x.com/forum/additional...view-supports-tables-any-size.html#post110901

The class depend on following libraries:
- StringUtils (standard)
- SQL (standard)
- JavaObject (standard)
- ScrollView2D (additional)

List of major features.
1. scrollable table UI
2. sortable columns
3. select a row, cell or multi select rows
4. callback for selection / click a cell / row
5. callback for long click action
6. read / write to CSV file

Current version --> 3.35 Custom View
Current version --> 1.44 Class

Other complementary routines:

Load data with the Remote Database Connector.


EDIT: LucaMs has written a routine to fill a table with a Remote Database Connector query result see post 182.
The routine hasn't been added into the Class for the reasons explained in post 183.
A sample program can be found HERE.

Code:
B4X:
'load data from a RDC Request
'Result = DBResult object got from a RDC request
'AutomaticWidths  True > set the column widths automaticaly
'Written by LucasMs
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

This is another routine updated by cimperia in post #392 using a Map for the columns and a List for the rows.

'No need to initialize nor add it onto a parent view

For a Table added in the code:
The Initialize routine has been splittend into two routines.
New:
Initialize (CallBack As Object, EventName As String)
InitializeTable (vNumberOfColumns As Int, cellAlignement As Int, showStatusL As Boolean)

'Example:
Table1.Initialize(Me, "Table1")
Table1.InitializeTable(5, Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL, True)

Changed the LoadSQLiteDB routine according to the error reported in the SQL issue thread
and the SQLite Cursor GetString versus GetDouble thread.
The problem appears with numbers bigger than 999999.

No, in the class is only this
I know.

But the code, I mentioned in my post #824 looks strange to me.

when i click on cell of table, return on event table_CellClick pass Col and Row, this is standard.
Inside this sub i must read clicked row and change "x" column that contain state of select value .
Change this state with query, change corrispondent value in table with table.SetValue(...) and refresh table with table.refreshTable.



B4X:
Sub table_CellClick (Col As Int, Row As Int)
    fmu As Int
    StrQuery = "SELECT x FROM table WHERE Codice =
       table.GetValue(0,Row) & "'"
    DbCur = dbSql.ExecQuery(StrQuery)
    fmu = 0
    If DbCur.RowCount > 0 Then
        DbCur.Position = 0
        fmu = DbCurArt.GetInt("x")
    else
        return
    End If
        
    If fmu = 1 Then
        multipla_count = multipla_count - 1
        StrQuery = "UPDATE table SET X = 0 WHERE
               codice = '" & table.GetValue(0,Row) & "'"
        dbSql.ExecNonQuery(StrQuery)
        table.SetValue(2, Row, "0")
        table.refreshTable
    Else
        multipla_count = multipla_count + 1
        StrQuery = "UPDATE table SET x = 1 WHERE
                table.GetValue(0,Row) & "'"
        dbSql.ExecNonQuery(StrQuery)
        table.SetValue(2, Row, "1")
        table.refreshTable
    End If

End Sub

At 90%. I see a strange color effect, sometimes the panel became smaller than cell, but when table refresh return ok. I can' t understand , seems something with keyboard show but i'm not call nothing. How you can see focus not change, and there is nothing about table, only automatic show of keyboard by os.
See image

I have been programming in B4PPC since its inception. When I first started, I noticed that Table Views lacked many functions. I wrote a library in C# to create a DataGridView from a SQL Query. It was reusable and served me well over the years.

I am now in B4A struggling with this custom table view. It works very similar to my old DGV and it was very easy for me to get my data to display in table form, but I soon ran into three missing common options. These are my wish list options for future updates:

1. Set Single Column Color (SetColColor(col as Int, row as Int, color as Color):
While taking a customer order and displaying items previously purchased, set background color to GREEN for items already existing in this order.
Display a list of options where you can select one or several; The First, Left Colum is "APPLY" color Green and the Last, Right Column is "DISMISS" color Red.

2. Set Single Column Alignment (SetColAlign(col as Int, row as Int, align as Int)
All columns are Center align. One column looks funny so you change is to Right align.

3. Set Single Column (or All Columns) to Word Wrap On
There is no way, when using SQL, to embed a CRLF in a text field to simulate word-wrap. Without word-wrap, fixed width columns truncate. Rum & Orange Juice comes out "Rum & Oran".

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Regards

1. You can use SetColumnColors(ColumnColors() As Int)
2. You can use SetCellAlignments(Alignments() As Int)
3. This is a bit more complicated. The height of all rows is the same. Therefore you would need to use a height for all rows allowing 2 lines or more.
You can use automatic widths.

Thank you Klaus for your reply. My problem is:

1. I don't want to set all column colors, only a single column [for example Column 3 in Row 5 ie. SetColumnColor(3,5,Colors.Red) ]

2. I use your solution as a work-around but again, looking for a simple way to change a single column [ SetColumnAlign(3,Gravity.Left) ]

3. This one is the killer. I have set the row height to accommodate three lines but it still truncates. Nothing I have been able to do will make it word-wrap. I use automatic widths for now but because of the narrow width of most phones, this causes very distorted views:

From my POS system, three drinks ordered:

DESCRIPTION QTY AMOUNT
Rum&Coke 1 $3.00
Belvedere Vodka Citrus & Orange Juice(Tall Glass,Lots Ice) 1 $5.00
Bud Bot 1 $2.00

You need to slide the table left to view the quantity. I even tried modifying the table data itself, inserting carriage returns, etc. but still no word wrap. The work-around here was put the quantity as the first column of the table. Would love to have Table.WordWrap = True

Thanks again for your assistance. It's just my wish list.

For point 3, can you try the following code,
add this line L.SingleLine = False.

B4X:
Private Sub CreateNewLabels As Label()
    Dim lbls(mNumberOfColumns) As Label
    For i = 0 To mNumberOfColumns - 1
        Dim rc As RowCol
        rc.Col = i
        Dim L As Label
        L.Initialize("Cell")
       
        L.TextSize = cTextSize
        L.SingleLine = False

Sintax error in v1.44?
Hello, I think there is an error in this line:
B4X:
Public Sub SetHeader (Values () As String)
   ..
   ..
   If HeaderWidths (col)> ColumnWidths (col) Then OR HeaderWidths (col)> ColumnWidths (col) Then
   ..
   ..
Best regards.

You have the Data list containing all data from the table, this list is updated during sorting, a String Array with the values of each row.
B4X:
Private RowData() As String
RowData = Table1.Data.Get(RowIndex)
For col = 0 To RowData.Length - 1
    Log(RowData(col))
Next
Then you have the GetValue(col, row) method to get the value in the given row and column.
And the GetValues(row) method to get the array of strings of the values in the given row.

The direction is not available, you can check the first and the last value of the column to get the direction.

Hi.

I meant to know the number of the column that has been sorted.

In my humble opinion, a practical way could be through the member Header_Click. It could return not only the number of the header pressed, but also the direction.


B4X:
Private Sub Header_Click
    ............
    ............
    ............
    
    If SubExists(cCallBack, cEventName & "_HeaderClick") Then
        CallSub2(cCallBack, cEventName & "_HeaderClick", col) '<------- Here could you indicate the column and the direction?

    End If



End Sub

Hi,

I need to save the number of the column that the user has ordered so that the next time the table is displayed it appears ordered with that same column.
