Method Detail

getRowKeyIterator

public static java.util.Iterator<java.lang.Object> getRowKeyIterator(CollectionModel model)

Gets an iteration of all the rowKeys in a collection. The collection must not be modified while this iterator is being used. The Iterator is not modifiable.

getRowCount

public static int getRowCount(RowKeyIndex model)

finds the last index in the given RowKeyIndex that has data and returns the next index. This is useful when the RowKeyIndex.getRowCount() of the RowKeyIndex is not known.

Returns:

a positive number if there is data. Returns zero if there is no data. Note that -1 is never returned.

findLastIndex

public static int findLastIndex(RowKeyIndex table,
                                int startIndex,
                                int endIndex)

finds the last index in the given RowKeyIndex that has data and returns the next index. This is useful when the RowKeyIndex.getRowCount() of the RowKeyIndex is not known.

Parameters:

startIndex - starts the search from this index. Use zero to start from the beginning.

endIndex - the search will stop just before this index.

Returns:

a number >= startIndex. Note that -1 is never returned.

toTreeModel

public static TreeModel toTreeModel(java.lang.Object value)

Converts an instance into a TreeModel

toMenuModel

public static MenuModel toMenuModel(java.lang.Object value)

Converts an instance into a MenuModel

toCollectionModel

public static CollectionModel toCollectionModel(java.lang.Object value)

Converts an instance into a CollectionModel.

Parameters:

value - This can be a DataModel, List, Array or other CollectionModel.

toDataModel

public static javax.faces.model.DataModel toDataModel(java.lang.Object value)

Converts an instance into a DataModel.

Parameters:

value - Supported instances include java.util.List and arrays.
