I want include Grid in FramedPanel and using gxt dnd.
But if I add FramedPanel in DragSource:
DragSource source = new DragSource(framedPanel) {
#Override
protected void onDragStart(DndDragStartEvent event) {
super.onDragStart(event);
event.setData(framedPanel);
}
};
DnD works when I click and hold on Grid.
How I can do to DnD only worked on the header of FramedPanel.
Consider using Draggable instead of DragSource, then use the constructor that takes two arguments. This way you can specify the header as the 'handle' argument.
Draggable draggable = new Draggable(framedPanel, framedPanel.getHeader());
//assuming GXT 3, just guessing from your post
draggable.addDragStartHandler(new DragStartHandler() {
public void onDragStart(DragStartEvent event) {
//...
}
});
If you must use DragSource, subclass it to replace the Draggable instance, and create a new instance as specified above, plus making the changes found in the existing DragSource constructor.

I have a problem where Vaadin does not update the display of a GridLayout in time. The GridLayout is a component in a VerticalLayout, that I use to list all uploaded files. When I upload a file everything works fine on the server-side but the client does not see the change until he creates a new request to the server (by uploading another file or triggering some other event / rarely the update works fine though).
Here is the component that contains the problematic GridLayout:
public class ListedMultiFileUpload extends VerticalLayout {
private MultiFileUpload multiFileUpload;
private GridLayout fileList;
public ListedMultiFileUpload(UploadFinishedHandler uploadFinishedHandler, UploadStateWindow uploadStateWindow) {
multiFileUpload = new MultiFileUpload(uploadFinishedHandler, uploadStateWindow);
fileList = new GridLayout(2, 5);
fileList.setImmediate(true);
addComponents(multiFileUpload, fileList);
}
public SmartMultiUpload getSmartUpload() {
return multiFileUpload.getSmartUpload();
}
public void addFile(String fileName, final Runnable fileRemover) {
final Label label = new Label(fileName);
final Button button = new Button("X");
button.addClickListener(new ClickListener() {
#Override
public void buttonClick(ClickEvent event) {
fileList.removeComponent(label);
fileList.removeComponent(button);
fileRemover.run();
}
});
fileList.addComponent(label);
fileList.addComponent(button);
markAsDirtyRecursive();
}
}
I already tried setting the GridLayout to immediate as well as marking the whole component as dirty but nothing seems to make a difference.
So basically am I doing something wrong here? Or if not, is there a "nice" way I could force the client to update its components?
As proposed by #Morfic I enabled the Server-Push addon in automatic mode and now the required updates to the client are made by that addon. Not sure how much I like that solution but it works.
I am new to vaadin. I have one Link like
Link link = new Link("", new ExternalResource(redirectURL));
my requirement is, I have to set value when user clicks the link. Can I add listener when user click the link. Or is there alternate ways of setting value if link is clicked.
To capture onClick on a link or a label, I always create a HorizontalLayout and put the component inside it:
HorizontalLayout hor = new HorizontalLayout();
final Link link = new Link("Click on Me!", new ExternalResource("http://www.google.com"));
hor.addComponent(link);
hor.addLayoutClickListener(new LayoutClickListener() {
#Override
public void layoutClick(LayoutClickEvent event) {
// capture the click here and do whatever you'd like to do, e.g.
// if ( event.getClickedComponent() != null ) {
// if(event.getClickedComponent().equals(link)) {}
}
});
I interpreted your question as changing the caption of the link. As far as I know it's not possibly with the Link component. Take a look at the activelink addon: http://vaadin.com/addon/activelink.
This addon behaves like Link and lets you add a LinkActivatedListener to it. The code should look like this:
final ActiveLink link = new ActiveLink("", new ExternalResource(redirectURL));
link.addListener(new LinkActivatedListener() {
#Override
public void linkActivated(LinkActivatedEvent event) {
link.setCaption("newCaption");
}
});
You could use the new BrowserWindowOpener class:
From the API:
Component extension that opens a browser popup window when the
extended component is clicked.
Example:
BrowserWindowOpener browserWindowOpener = new BrowserWindowOpener(new ExternalResource("http://google.com"));
/*
* Apparently, the BrowserWindowOpener method setWindowName uses the HTML5 target
* attribute (no longer deprecated as it was in HTML4).
* So you can use either a frame name, or one of four special attribute values:
* _blank, _self, _parent, _top
*
* browserWindowOpener.setWindowName();
*/
final Button btn = new Button("Click me");
browserWindowOpener.extend(btn);
btn.addClickListener(new ClickListener() {
#Override
public void buttonClick(ClickEvent event) {
btn.setCaption("clicked");
}
});
More information here.
I dint work on Vaadin yet But I looked into the document. I found that the Link class internally extends AbstractComponent class which has many functions which you can override. like it has addListener function where you need to pass the Component listener as a parameter and can detect the click event and do whatever you want to.
For reference check this
and this too
Hope this will help :)
The content of the tab is formed and displayed when the application is loaded. Later the content of the tab may be changed by other actions. I want to show the newer content after each action. And each time when I click the tab sheet, the content should be refresh/updated. But I failed.
//the content of the tab from the "reprintsTab" class
//in the "reprintsTab" it query data from database and print out
//later I update the data in the database from somewhere else, and I want the tab shows the new content
//I want to click the tab sheet to reload the "reprintTab" class and print out the new content
//here is what I did:
public TabSheet sheet;
//add tab and add the content from "reprintTab" into this tab
sheet.addTab(new reprintsTab());
//add the listener
sheet.addListener(new TabSheet.SelectedTabChangeListener() {
#Override
public void selectedTabChange(SelectedTabChangeEvent event) {
//I know it does not work, because it only reload the class. but not put the content under the tab I want
new reprintsTab();
}
});
What should I do? please help me, thanks.
You can use TabSheet.replaceComponent method to do this:
//Field to store current component
private reprintsTab currentComponent;
//during initialization
currentComponent = new reprintsTab();
sheet.addTab(currentComponent);
sheet.addListener(new TabSheet.SelectedTabChangeListener() {
#Override
public void selectedTabChange(SelectedTabChangeEvent event) {
reprintsTab newComponent = new reprintsTab();
sheet.replaceComponent(currentComponent, newComponent);
currentComponent = newComponent;
}
});
Also, you might want to reload this tab only when it's shown:
sheet.addListener(new TabSheet.SelectedTabChangeListener() {
#Override
public void selectedTabChange(SelectedTabChangeEvent event) {
if (event.getTabSheet().getSelectedTab() == currentComponent) {
//here goes the code
}
}
});
This should work for you, but I would suggest a cleaner approach: implement reprintsTab as a container for components, create method reload or buildInterface method to refresh its' state, so you can just call:
currentComponent.reload();
when you need to update interface.
Also, I hope reprintsTab is just an example name, java class names starting with lowercase letter look ugly.
JTable's default behavior is changing focus to next cell and I want to force it to move focus to next component (e.g. JTextField) on TAB key pressed.
I overrided isCellEditable method of DefaultTableModel to always return false:
public boolean isCellEditable(int rowIndex, int columnIndex) {
return false;
}
But it still doesn't change focus to next component!
How should I make JTable change focus to next component instead of next cell?
The shift-/tab keys are used by default for transfering focus between components. JTable explicitly requests to handle the shift-/tab internally (by providing sets of focusTraversalKeys which doesn't include those).
Following the general rule (if there's specilized api available for a task, use that instead of rolling your own), the solution is to set traversal keys to again contain them:
Set<AWTKeyStroke> forward = new HashSet<AWTKeyStroke>(
table.getFocusTraversalKeys(KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS));
forward.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("TAB"));
table.setFocusTraversalKeys(KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, forward);
Set<AWTKeyStroke> backward = new HashSet<AWTKeyStroke>(
table.getFocusTraversalKeys(KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS));
backward.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("shift TAB"));
table.setFocusTraversalKeys(KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, backward);
If you really want this, you need to change the default behavior of the tables action map.
ActionMap am = table.getActionMap();
am.put("selectPreviousColumnCell", new PreviousFocusHandler());
am.put("selectNextColumnCell", new NextFocusHandler());
Then you need a couple of actions to handle the traversal
public class PreviousFocusHandler extends AbstractAction {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
KeyboardFocusManager manager = KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager();
manager.focusPreviousComponent();
}
}
public class NextFocusHandler extends AbstractAction {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
KeyboardFocusManager manager = KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager();
manager.focusNextComponent();
}
}
Another approach would be to disable the underlying Action...
ActionMap am = table.getActionMap();
am.get("selectPreviousColumnCell").setEnabled(false);
am.get("selectNextColumnCell").setEnabled(false);
(haven't tested this)
The benefit of this approach is can enable/disable the behaviour as you need it without needing to maintain a reference to the old Actions
default (implemented KeyBinding for JTable) is about next cell and from last cell to first,
you can to remove KeyBindings by setting to the null value
To reset to the standard keyboard bindings (typically TAB and SHIFT+TAB), simply specify null for the keystrokes parameter to Component.setFocusTraversalKeys:
table.setFocusTraversalKeys(KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, null);
table.setFocusTraversalKeys(KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, null);
Im using a JPanel with propertyChangeListener and want it to rerender itself based on whenever a particular variable model changes. My code for the same is as follows --
public class LabelMacroEditor extends JPanel implements PropertyChangeListener {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private LabelMacroModel model;
public LabelMacroEditor(LabelMacroModel bean) {
this.model = bean;
model.addPropertyChangeListener(this);
setupComponents();
validate();
setVisible(true);
}
public void setupComponents()
{
Box allButtons = Box.createVerticalBox();
JScrollPane macroModelScroller = new JScrollPane(allButtons);
macroModelScroller.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(300, 200));
for(MacroModel macroModel : model.getMacroModelList())
{
LabelMacroEditorEditableEntity macroEditorEntity = new LabelMacroEditorEditableEntity(macroModel);
Box entityBox = Box.createHorizontalBox();
entityBox.add(macroEditorEntity.getUpButton());
entityBox.add(Box.createHorizontalStrut(15));
entityBox.add(macroEditorEntity.getMacroDetailsButton());
entityBox.add(Box.createHorizontalStrut(15));
entityBox.add(macroEditorEntity.getDownButton());
allButtons.add(entityBox);
}
add(macroModelScroller);
}
#Override
public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent arg0) {
revalidate();
repaint();
}
}
When i use the debug mode in eclipse i can see that whenever there is a change to model it triggers off the call propertyChange and it also runs over revalidate and repaint but only the JPanel display remains the same. It does not seem to be rerendering itself.
Anything fundamental that I'm missing here ?
EDIT :
An example snippet of a property im changing is as follows --
labelMacroModel.addMacroModel(addedMacroModel);
where labelMacroModel is of the type LabelMacroModel and addedMacroModel is of the type Macro
Now the relevant part of LabelMacroModel class that fires off the property change is as follows --
private List<MacroModel> macroModelList;// this is the list of all MacroModels
public void addMacroModel(MacroModel macroModel) {
macroModelList.add(macroModel);
pcs.fireIndexedPropertyChange("LabelMacroModel", macroModelList.size(), null, macroModel);
}
Its not clear how you are changing the components in the panel. If panel is not updated then repaint/revalidate will have no effect. I think you should not need revalidate/repaint to be called explicitly if you are not modifying the way components are laid out. JButton.setText should for example change the label of the button without need of calling repaint.
To expand on the answer by AKJ above, I think you should be reconstructing your components on property change. So doing a remove all then readding is one way to do this. Once you get this working you could be more selective about pushing the model update into the GUI eg if a new entry has been added then just add a new component to reflect this. The remove all / readd is fine for a lot of cases though. HTH.
