Class FormColumnTable<T>

          net.sf.echobinding.datacontrol.FormColumnTable<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, EditableTable<T>, nextapp.echo2.app.RenderIdSupport

public abstract class FormColumnTable<T>
extends nextapp.echo2.app.Column
implements EditableTable<T>

A editable table that allows inline editing. A FormColumnTable organizes the table data within one Column component. Each item in the list will be added to the column as a Row. This row has to be defined by overwriting the abstract method ceateRow(BindingContext ctx, int rowNummer).

If you supply a PersistenceMangager, you can add new rows to the table by calling the addRow() method. Again, new rows will be added to the table by the ceateRow(BindingContext ctx, int rowNummer) method.
