Tobago Sheet control with dynamic column count

[Mika Salminen <mj...@cc.hut.fi>]

Hi,

I'm trying to make Tobago sheet control to show results of a database
query. The problem I have is that I don't know how to generate columns for
the sheet control dynamically so that I don't have to hard-code the number
of columns in jsp with <tc:column /> -tags. There can only be as many
columns as there are column tags. The number of resultset columns is not
known in advance so there should be a way to generate columns at run-time.
I found that in Tomahawk you can use <t:columns /> -tag, but how can I do
it with Tobago?

Hi Mika,

just added component binding example for tc:sheet

Please look at

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/myfaces/tobago/trunk/example/test/src/main/webapp/solarList2.jsp

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/myfaces/tobago/trunk/example/test/src/main/java/org/apache/myfaces/tobago/example/test/TestBean.java

One note:

The latest UIData of Tobago has a property columns. The released 
versions has only a columns attribute. Please set it with 
component.getAttributes().put("colums", ...);

Regards

Bernd

Hi Mika,

you can use the bindig attribute at the tc:sheet tag and create the
sheet component (and all children components) dynamicaly in your
application code.
