Updating or removing elemetns from DataProvider [message #1013450]

Hi Friends,

I'm looking for a way to update element or remove element from a NatTable. However, it looks this would require looping through all elements (ListDataProvider) and finding out index to be removed/added. Is there a way, i can do something like call remove(Object) or update(Object).I just want to avoid this iteration.

OR

Is there a way i can keep a Map<Index, Object>, then i can use this index to directly extract object and update /remove from dataprovider without iterating through whole table? The concern here is with elements added/removed/updated to ListDataProvider, index would change and mapping in HashMap may not be relavant.

Thanks in Advance for your help.

Hi,

For adding / removing objects I usually work on the underlying list directly.

Dirk, thank you.

Basically, Add is not a problem but yes update and remove as I need to traverse through whole table to find matching. In my case, I update the table based one per sec tick from market data. It might happen that every row get updated.

Any suggestionin to overcome this, such that i can retrieve from Nattable index of element and keep it mapped with my data in Hash Map?

Hi,
You should think of the NatTable as a viewer to your data. For background processing you should consider working directly on the backed list. If you're using GlazedLists perform your actions there as updating the NatTable will then be done automatically.

Hope that helps,
Dirk
