Method Detail

requestRows

protected void requestRows(int firstRowIndex,
                           int numberOfRows,
                           AbstractRemoteDataSource.RequestRowsCallback<JsonObject> callback)

Description copied from class: AbstractRemoteDataSource

Triggers fetching rows from the remote data source. The provided callback should be informed when the requested rows have been received.

Specified by:

requestRows in class AbstractRemoteDataSource<JsonObject>

Parameters:

firstRowIndex - the index of the first row to fetch

numberOfRows - the number of rows to fetch

callback - callback to inform when the requested rows are available

ensureAvailability

public void ensureAvailability(int firstRowIndex,
                               int numberOfRows)

Description copied from interface: DataSource

Informs the data source that data for the given range is needed. A data source only has one active region at a time, so calling this method discards the previously set range.

This method triggers lazy loading of data if necessary. The change handler registered using DataSource.setDataChangeHandler(DataChangeHandler) is informed when new data has been loaded.

After any possible lazy loading and updates are done, the change handler is informed that new data is available.

Specified by:

ensureAvailability in interface DataSource<JsonObject>

Overrides:

ensureAvailability in class AbstractRemoteDataSource<JsonObject>

Parameters:

firstRowIndex - the index of the first needed row

numberOfRows - the number of needed rows

getRowKey

public String getRowKey(JsonObject row)

Description copied from class: AbstractRemoteDataSource

Gets a stable key for the row object.

This method is a workaround for the fact that there is no means to force proper implementations for Object.hashCode() and Object.equals(Object) methods.

Since the same row object will be created several times for the same logical data, the DataSource needs a mechanism to be able to compare two objects, and figure out whether or not they represent the same data. Even if all the fields of an entity would be changed, it still could represent the very same thing (say, a person changes all of her names.)

A very usual and simple example what this could be, is an unique ID for this object that would also be stored in a database.

Specified by:

getRowKey in class AbstractRemoteDataSource<JsonObject>

Parameters:

row - the row object for which to get the key

Returns:

a non-null object that uniquely and consistently represents the row object

getHandleByKey

public DataSource.RowHandle<JsonObject> getHandleByKey(Object key)

unpinHandle

protected void unpinHandle(AbstractRemoteDataSource.RowHandleImpl handle)

Description copied from class: AbstractRemoteDataSource

Unpins a previously pinned row with given handle. This function can be overridden to do specific logic related to unpinning rows.

Overrides:

unpinHandle in class AbstractRemoteDataSource<JsonObject>

Parameters:

handle - row handle to unpin

setRowData

protected void setRowData(int firstRowIndex,
                          List<JsonObject> rowData)

Description copied from class: AbstractRemoteDataSource

Informs this data source that updated data has been sent from the server.

Overrides:

setRowData in class AbstractRemoteDataSource<JsonObject>

Parameters:

firstRowIndex - the index of the first received row

rowData - a list of rows, starting from firstRowIndex

updateRowData

protected void updateRowData(JsonObject row)

Updates row data based on row key.

Parameters:

row - new row object

Since:

7.6

onDropFromCache

protected void onDropFromCache(int rowIndex,
                               JsonObject row)

Description copied from class: AbstractRemoteDataSource

A hook that can be overridden to do something whenever a row has been dropped from the cache. DataSource no longer has anything in the given index.

Overrides:

onDropFromCache in class AbstractRemoteDataSource<JsonObject>

Parameters:

rowIndex - the index of the dropped row

row - the removed row object

canFetchData

protected boolean canFetchData()

Description copied from class: AbstractRemoteDataSource

Checks if it is possible to currently fetch data from the remote data source.

Overrides:

canFetchData in class AbstractRemoteDataSource<JsonObject>

Returns:

true if it is ok to try to fetch data, false if it is known that fetching data will fail and should not be tried right now.
