Method Details

supportsColumnChange

boolean supportsColumnChange()

Determine whether this instance supports column change. Some subclasses support this in all cases, others only sometimes.

Returns:

true if it is valid to call addColumns

beginAddColumns

ExtendableTableInterface.PartialResult beginAddColumns(List<ExtendableTableInterface.Entry> columns)

Begin the process of setting extended columns. This will create and return a new DBTable via updateView, with new columns. Implementations must not touch Swing components, and callers must not invoke this on the Swing event thread.

Parameters:

columns - list of column name/definition entries to add

Returns:

PartialResult containing intermediate results to be passed to finishAddColumns

Throws:

RuntimeException - for a variety of errors

setFinishedCallback

void setFinishedCallback(Runnable r)

set a callback to be called on the swing thread sometime after finishAddColumns

Parameters:

r - Runnable to be called after finishAddColumns

popFinishedCallback

Runnable popFinishedCallback()

get the current callback value. set the callback to null

Returns:

current callback, if any

finishAddColumns

void finishAddColumns(ExtendableTableInterface.PartialResult partialResult)

Incorporate the new DBTable and columns into tables and models. This must not be called on the Swing event thread.

Parameters:

partialResult - intermediate results from beginAddColumns

getExtendedColumns

List<ExtendableTableInterface.Entry> getExtendedColumns()

get all extended columns and definitions

Returns:

list of name/definition pairs.

makeParameterList

static Collection<String> makeParameterList(List<ExtendableTableInterface.Entry> columnDefinitions)

Convenience method: convert list of entries into collection of updateView parameters in name=definition format

asString

static String asString(List<ExtendableTableInterface.Entry> columnDefinitions)

Convenience method: convert list of entries to useful string
