private FlexTable table = new FlexTable();
int i = 0;
for (List row : result) {
int j = 0;
for (String element : row) {
table.setHTML(i, j, element);
j++;
}
i++;
}
Programmer could also add widgets to the Flex table.
table.setWidget(i, j, new Label("Name"));
And to clear the table, programmer call clear() method of HTML table.
table.clear()
Description of the clear() method says "it removes all widgets from this table, but does not remove other HTML or text contents of cells". So it will remove the label added to the Table but not HTML added in the for loop. Many times it leads you to wrong result.
For example: Lets assume table (4 x 4) contains 'A' in each cell
| A | A | A | A |
| A | A | A | A |
| A | A | A | A |
| A | A | A | A |
Now programmer called table.clear() and write (3x3) elements with data 'B'. If he tries to print the complete table, he will see following result which is not expected.
| B | B | B | A |
| B | B | B | A |
| B | B | B | A |
| A | A | A | A |
How can we eliminate this problem? Solution : remove all the row one by one before adding new data to table.
for (; table.getRowCount() > 0; ) {
table.removeRow(0);
}
