Class FieldColumn

java.lang.Object
  net.sf.click.control.Column
      net.sf.click.extras.control.FieldColumn

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class FieldColumn

extends Column

Provides a FieldColumn for rendering table data cells.

The FieldColumn class is used to define the table cell data <td> editors. Each FieldColumn should include a Field instance.

If the FieldColumn is contained in a standard Table it will render the all the table column data cells using its single field instance.

If the FieldColumn is contained in a FormTable it will both render the column data cells and process any posted column data values using the field instance. Changes to the tables data objects will be available in the Table rowList property.

Please see the FormTable Javadoc for usage examples.
