Question

I'm working on a project that requires a dataTable for each item of a collection, and each of those dataTables has dynamic columns.

Here's an example of what I want to do..

DocsDescriptor.java

package test;

public class DocsDescriptor {
    private long id;
    private String name;

    public DocsDescriptor(long id, String name){
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
    }

    public long getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(long id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

}

DocsData.java

package test;

public class DocsData {

    private long id;
    private String value;
    private DocsDescriptor descriptor;

    public DocsData(long id, String value, DocsDescriptor descriptor){
        this.id = id;
        this.value = value;
        this.descriptor = descriptor;
    }

    public long getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(long id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getValue() {
        return value;
    }
    public void setValue(String value) {
        this.value = value;
    }
    public DocsDescriptor getDescriptor() {
        return descriptor;
    }
    public void setDescriptor(DocsDescriptor descriptor) {
        this.descriptor = descriptor;
    }

}

DocsDocument.java

package test;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class DocsDocument {

    private long id;
    private List<DocsData> datas;

    public DocsDocument(long id){
        this.id = id;
    }

    public long getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(long id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public List<DocsData> getDatas() {
        return datas;
    }
    public void setDatas(List<DocsData> datas) {
        this.datas = datas;
    }   

    public void add(DocsData data){
        if(this.datas == null) this.datas = new ArrayList<DocsData>();
        this.datas.add(data);
    }

}

DocsDocumentType.java

package test;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class DocsDocumentType {

    private long id;
    private String name;
    private List<DocsDocument> documents;
    public DocsDocumentType(long id, String name){
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
    }
    public long getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(long id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }
    public List<DocsDocument> getDocuments() {
        return documents;
    }
    public void setDocuments(List<DocsDocument> documents) {
        this.documents = documents;
    }

    public void add(DocsDocument document){
        if(this.documents == null) this.documents = new ArrayList<DocsDocument>();
        this.documents.add(document);
    }

}

I'm using wildfly 9.0.1, primefaces-5.2

Can anybody help me out with a solution or an alternative?

Thank you all!

Answer 1

Value of p:columns cannot refer to var of parent dataTable. Documentation http://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/data/datatable/columns.xhtml shows this moment. Actually in your model each row can contain different number of columns. You need to change model:

TableModel:

package test;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

/**
 * Created by kit on 14.12.2015.
 *
 * @author kit
 */
public class TableModel {

    private String name;
    private List<RowModel> rows = new ArrayList<>();
    private List<ColumnModel> columns = new ArrayList<>();


    /**
     * Getters, Setters
     */

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public List<RowModel> getRows() {
        return rows;
    }

    public List<ColumnModel> getColumns() {
        return columns;
    }
}

RowModel:

package test;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

/**
 * Created by kit on 14.12.2015.
 *
 * @author kit
 */
public class RowModel<T> {

    private String name;
    private Map<ColumnModel, T> data = new HashMap<>();

    /**
     * Getters, Setters
     */

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public Map<ColumnModel, T> getData() {
        return data;
    }
}

ColumnModel:

package test;

/**
 * Created by kit on 14.12.2015.
 *
 * @author kit
 */
public class ColumnModel<T> {

    private T data;

    /**
     * Getters, Setters
     */
    public T getData() {
        return data;
    }

    public void setData(T data) {
        this.data = data;
    }
}

Modify TestController:
