public class PropertyTable

extends BaseTable

The PropertyTable Bean is used to show the extra details associated with a r *ow when all the details cannot be shown using columns. When the property "Ext *ra Property" is set true,the property table shows the extra details for ea ch row. Moreover, the property table also stores all the details of a row as *an object of java.util.Properties.

For example, suppose, you want to show the details of a student in a property table. Enter the details of the student in a properties object,like:

java.util.Properties studentProp=new java.util.Properties(); studentProp.setProperty("Name","Alice"); studentProp.setProperty("Age","12"); studentProp.setProperty("Sex","Female"); studentProp.setProperty("Marks","80"); studentProp.setProperty("Class","IX");

Now, drop a PropertyTable bean from the AdventNetUtils.jar and set the follo *wing properties using the property sheet.

 PropertyTable1.setColumnNames();
 PropertyTable1.setExtraProperty(true);
 

We can also construct a Properties object to set the column names.

java.util.Properties colNameProp=new java.util.Properties(); colNameProp.setProperty("Student Name","Name"); colNameProp.setProperty("Age","Age"); colNameProp.setProperty("Sex","Sex"); colNameProp.setProperty("Marks","Marks"); PropertyTable1.setColumnNames(colNameProp); PropertyTable1.setExtraProperty(true);

The method setColumnNames sets the column header of the table. In the above example, the table shows only four properties. If the "Extra Pr *operty" is set true, then an extra column gets added. Clicking on this column shows all the properties associated with the selected row.
