Class PagedListHolder

    java.lang.Object
      org.springframework.beans.support.PagedListHolder

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:
  RefreshablePagedListHolder

    public class PagedListHolder

extends Object
implements Serializable

PagedListHolder is a simple state holder for handling lists of objects, separating them into pages. Page numbering starts with 0.

This is mainly targetted at usage in web UIs. Typically, an instance will be instantiated with a list of beans, put into the session, and exported as model. The properties can all be set/get programmatically, but the most common way will be data binding, i.e. populating the bean from request parameters. The getters will mainly be used by the view.

Supports sorting the underlying list via a `SortDefinition` implementation, available as property "sort". By default, a `MutableSortDefinition` instance will be used, toggling the ascending value on setting the same property again.

The data binding names have to be called "pageSize" and "sort.ascending", as expected by BeanWrapper. Note that the names and the nesting syntax match the respective JSTL EL expressions, like "myModelAttr.pageSize" and "myModelAttr.sort.ascending".

See Also:
  Constant Field Values

Constructor Detail

### PagedListHolder

    public PagedListHolder()

  Create a new holder instance. You'll need to set a source list to be able to use the holder.

  See Also:
    `setSource(java.util.List)`

### PagedListHolder

    public PagedListHolder(List source)

  Create a new holder instance with the given source list, starting with a default sort definition (with "toggleAscendingOnProperty" activated).

  Parameters:
    `source` - the source List
  See Also:
    `MutableSortDefinition.setToggleAscendingOnProperty(boolean)`

### PagedListHolder

    public PagedListHolder(List source,
                           SortDefinition sort)

  Create a new holder instance with the given source list.

  Parameters:
    `source` - the source List
    `sort` - the SortDefinition to start with

Method Detail

### setSource

    public void setSource(List source)

  Set the source list for this holder.

### getSource

    public List getSource()

  Return the source list for this holder.

### getRefreshDate

    public Date getRefreshDate()

  Return the last time the list has been fetched from the source provider.

### setSort

    public void setSort(SortDefinition sort)

  Set the sort definition for this holder. Typically an instance of MutableSortDefinition.

  See Also:
    `MutableSortDefinition`

### getSort

    public SortDefinition getSort()

  Return the sort definition for this holder.

### setPageSize

    public void setPageSize(int pageSize)

  Set the current page size. Resets the current page number if changed.

  Default value is 10.

### getPageSize

    public int getPageSize()

  Return the current page size.

### setPage

    public void setPage(int page)

  Set the current page number. Page numbering starts with 0.

### getPage

    public int getPage()

  Return the current page number. Page numbering starts with 0.

### setMaxLinkedPages

### getPageCount

    public int getPageCount()

  Return the number of pages for the current source list.

### isFirstPage

  Return if the current page is the first one.

### isLastPage

    public boolean isLastPage()

### copySortDefinition

    protected SortDefinition copySortDefinition(SortDefinition sort)

  Create a deep copy of the given sort definition, for use as state holder to compare a modified sort definition against.

  Default implementation creates a MutableSortDefinition instance. Can be overridden in subclasses, in particular in case of custom extensions to the SortDefinition interface. Is allowed to return null, which means that no sort state will be held, triggering actual sorting for each `resort` call.

  Parameters:
    `sort` - the current SortDefinition object
  Returns:
    a deep copy of the SortDefinition object

  Actually perform sorting of the given source list, according to the given sort definition.

  The default implementation uses Spring's PropertyComparator. Can be overridden in subclasses.

  See Also:
    `PropertyComparator.sort(java.util.List, SortDefinition)`
