Hi, you can calculate the exact index of the row by injecting the grid to the page and calculating it by using methods (getRowsPerPage() x getCurrentPage()) + index. (http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry5/corelib/components/Grid.html)
The index of course changes when you reorder the list. Also, this index should be updated when doing inPlace update as the index changes depending in which place you insert the new row. Should the list that contains the entities be a map instead? (Map<Key, Entity>) You may have to implement your own GridDataSource that uses the map, as there is no automatic wrapping for that datatype. (See: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tapestry/tapestry5/trunk/tapestry-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tapestry5/internal/grid/CollectionGridDataSource.java?revision=964086&view=markup for reference implementation for collections.) The cost to iterate the list when doing deletes shouldn't be that much performance wise - and if you have so many entities that the cost is too much you should consider implementing special GridDataSource anyway. - Ville jc1001 wrote: > > Hi Thiago, > > I've tried that - but the index is the position within the current 'page' > of entries in the grid, i.e. zero is the first entry on page one, and also > on page 2 etc., but also, the inPlace method won't work as the index can't > be updated because some render phase is skipped.
