Creates an empty list.

Method Detail

setDataProvider

public void setDataProvider(DataProvider<T,?> dataProvider)

Description copied from interface: HasDataProvider

Sets the data provider for this listing. The data provider is queried for displayed items as needed.

Specified by:

setDataProvider in interface HasDataProvider<T>

Parameters:

dataProvider - the data provider, not null

getDataProvider

public DataProvider<T,?> getDataProvider()

Returns the data provider of this list.

Returns:

the data provider of this list, not null

getDataCommunicator

public DataCommunicator<T> getDataCommunicator()

Returns the data communicator of this list.

Returns:

the data communicator, not null

setRenderer

public void setRenderer(ValueProvider<T,String> valueProvider)

Sets a renderer for the items in the list, by using a ValueProvider. The String returned by the provider is used to render each item.

Parameters:

valueProvider - a provider for the label string for each item in the list, not null

setRenderer

public void setRenderer(Renderer<T> renderer)

Sets a renderer for the items in the list.

When set, a same renderer is used for the placeholder item. See setPlaceholderItem(Object) for details.

Parameters:

renderer - a renderer for the items in the list, not null

setPlaceholderItem

public void setPlaceholderItem(T placeholderItem)

Sets an item to be shown as placeholder in the list while the real data in being fetched from the server.

Setting a placeholder item improves the user experience of the list while scrolling, since the placeholder uses the same renderer set with setRenderer(Renderer), maintaining the same height for placeholders and actual items.

When no placeholder item is set (or when set to null), an empty placeholder element is created with 100px of width and 18px of height.

Note: when using ComponentRenderers, the component used for the placeholder is statically stamped in the list. It can not be modified, nor receives any events.

Parameters:

placeholderItem - the item used as placeholder in the list, while the real data is being fetched from the server

getPlaceholderItem

public T getPlaceholderItem()

Gets the placeholder item of this list, or null if none has been set.

Returns:

the placeholder item

onEnabledStateChanged

public void onEnabledStateChanged(boolean enabled)

Description copied from class: Component

Handle component enable state when the enabled state changes.

By default this sets or removes the 'disabled' attribute from the element. This can be overridden to have custom handling.

Overrides:

onEnabledStateChanged in class Component

Parameters:

enabled - the new enabled state of the component
