Interface TabularData

All Superinterfaces:

java.io.Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

TabularDataBase

public interface TabularData

extends java.io.Serializable

A shared abstraction for all types of TabularData (1 and 2 dimensional arrays, result sets, result set metadata and many other types of data can be viewed as a the same with this interface. The abstraction is cell based and cells start at (1,1) (even arrays). The getCellData() methods retrieve any cell data on the current row only. Arrays can retrieve cells on any row, but result sets can't so I made the abstraction work to the more limited ResultSets capability. This limitation also means that data can only iterated through once.

Method Detail

getCellData

public java.lang.Object getCellData(int col)

Return cell data in the current rows specified column

getCellData

public java.lang.Object getCellData()

Return current cell data (the current row and current column)

getRowIterator

public DataIterator getRowIterator()

Return the Iterator that can iterate through the TabularData's rows

getColIterator

public DataIterator getColIterator()

Return the Iterator that can iterate through the TabularData's columns

createInstance

getHeader

public TabularData getHeader()

Get the Header (which is also TabularData)

setHeader

public void setHeader(TabularData header)

Set the Header (which is also TabularData)
