Table general advice

Code example

To display a list of addresses, you can use UlcTable with UlcTableModel. UlcTableModel uses the same mechanism as UlcFormModel to access attributes from the domain models, as follows:

|tableModel box|
 
(tableModel := UlcTableModel new) model: someModel.
 
(box := UlcBox new)
 add: (UlcTable new
                tableModel: tableModel;
 add: (UlcColumn new
                 attributeName: 'street'; yourself);
 add: (UlcColumn new
                 attributeName: 'zipCode'; yourself);
 yourself).
 
UlcShell new add: box

UlcColumn is an integral part of UlcTable. UlcColumn uses the table's model and takes data from UlcTableModel using the attributeName property as key. Columns are children of a table. They can be added (using #add:) to a UlcTable instance.

The Table and Column parts support sorting with a button over each column that allows sorting by that attribute.

You can navigate and edit the table using the keyboard.
