Wow, that article was awesome! I have recently saw/read about GlazedLists, and yes, u are ABSOLUTELY wright : the examples on their website are all swing based, which almost made me give up the idea . So, a clear and plain SWT implementation is golden and very much appreciated. I look forward to see those lists in action! Cheers.

Hi,

Sorry for the disturb;

Is there any method to use GlazedLists API without any JFace component in order to implement table filtering ?

In other words, how to implement table filtering using only an SWT text widget and a simple SWT table ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I’m using SWT table without JFace TableViewer because I can’t use JFace under my IDE (NetBeans).
How I can use the GlazedLists API in raw SWT Table without calling any JFace class in order to implement table filtering?
Can I have a code example please ?
Cordially.

Emil, is there a reason why you do not use GlazedLists own implementation of EventTableViewer? It can be virtual too. Of course using the JFace TableViewers can give you all kind of advantages like custom draw cell renderes etc.

Hi Brian,

If you’re having problems that are related to the widgets themselves, I suggest you ask on the various widget-related boards. For the Nebula Grid, ask your question on the Nebula newsgroup as there you will certainly have a higher chance of getting a reply. You can find more info on the Eclipse newsgroups and how to connect etc here: http://www.eclipse.org/newsgroups/. Do provide a snippet of code as well when you ask your question on the boards as it helps solving the issue quicker. Thanks!

I went with the nebula grid along with your glazed list viewer and really liked it…on the Windows machine. The moment I took this application to the SolarisGTK world, the flickering from the updates I require was just insane. I tried the redraw on/off trick to no avail. Anyone else have this issue or know a way to correct it?

I noticed that there are some references to KTable in the glazed lists documentation. I downloaded and ran the KTable examples and found the large table handling to be pretty fast.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ktable

I was interested in getting beyond the int range in rows. I found that Ktable couldn’t do that. The scroll range goes to 2G, but their were limitations before then.

I went through the code changing ints to longs everywhere, plus created a LongPoint and LongRectangle, and made some scaling of the scrollbar values, and now I have something working that I’ve tested with 8G rows.

I wonder what portions of glazed lists would be useful in an application with 8G rows. Does it become a memory hog with all its intermediate lists?
