Datatable columns converter

[Alfredo Aleandri <al...@logobject.ch>]

Hi,
I can't figure out the best way to define something like a 
object-to-string converter to add to a DataTable's column (PropertyColumn).
I have an Integer in my model and I want to display a proper String to 
the user by a defined mapping.

Thank you

alf

Hi Michael, thank you for your suggestion.
what do you think about overriding the AbstractColumn#populateItem() to add
a Label to the cellItem and setting up a proper IConverter to that
component? 

bye

Hi Alfredo,

This question came up last week aswell, here is an example of how you to 
subclass PropertyColumn to convert an integer into an arbitrary string:

 http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-How-to-manipulate-values-in-a-data-table--p23413680.html

Essentially you wrap the PropertyModel with a custom IModel 
implementation that does the conversion you want (on each cell).  Then 
you build the DataTable using your custom column implementation.

Regards,

Mike
