PivotTablePersistenceUtils. How to save Column Width.

Postby astaravoitau » Mon Mar 16, 2015 3:05 am

How to save Pivot Grid Column width with the PivotTablePersistenceUtils?
Which way is preferable if it is possible?
Is there any other way to do this?

PivotTablePersistenceUtils should save the field width but not the column width. For the column width, you can call PivotTablePane.getTableColumnWidth to get a Map for each sub-table and save the Map somewhere in your application. Later you can call setTableColumnWidth to set it back. It only works if the table has exactly the same columns.

Hi,

I was looking for a way to persist in a file the Pivot Table column width in order to restore them later.
It leaded me to this post and I tried what you propose.

I've probably missed something because it is not working.

Here is a sample of my code:

Persist part

Code: Select all
PivotTablePane pivotTable;
JTable columnHeaderTable = pivotTable.getColumnHeaderTable();
tableColumnWidth = PivotTablePane.getTableColumnWidth((HeaderTable)columnHeaderTable);
// Then, tableColumnWidth is serialized in a file


Restore part
Code: Select all
PivotTablePane pivotTable;
// tableColumnWidth owns the content serialized in a file
JTable columnHeaderTable = pivotTable.getColumnHeaderTable();
PivotTablePane.setTableColumnWidth((HeaderTable)columnHeaderTable, tableColumnWidth);


This code is partially working.
If I have built my PivotTablePane.
Then, I save the configuration.
Do some column width changes.
Restore the configuration.
It comes back to the persisted state.

Now, If I re-build from scratch the PivotTablePane, with the same data and column configuration, the width are never restored.

I've checked what's returned by PivotTablePane.getTableColumnWidth and from one run to another, the content is different, even if I do not change the PivotTablePane configuration and content.

From one run to another, I mean that I build a PivotTablePane at each run.

What did I missed ?

I see. The method can only restore the width in the same run. For different run, the key used in the HashMap will be different so it is not possible restore. I will find a way to fix it so that it is the same key as long as the column name and the field type are the same in each run.

I forgot to update. The latest 3.6.18 should have this bug fixed.

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply, I had to put on hold this topic for a while.

In the process to validate the bugfix, I integrated Jide 3.6.18 and faced the regression from 3.6.17.
See this Jide topic for details.

So I guess that we will have to wait for 3.6.19 to be released.

Yes, we will try to get 3.6.19 out soon.

Little update on that topic.
I was working on my project with the latest JDK 8 (1.8.0_121) and jide 3.5.15.
It appeared that the restore of the saved column size was working fine.

I came back to the former Java runtime I was using (1.8.0_66), and the restore failed, like described earlier in this topic.

We are planning to integrate Jide 3.6.19 once released, but I wanted to notify you about this, just in case it can reveal a deeper bug.


Forget about that comment, it might have been some lucky try on the Ids generation as I'm not able to reproduce it all the time, and I'm not able to identify what's making it working
