Method Detail

getTableModel

ITableModel getTableModel()

Returns the table model currently used

Returns:

ITableModel the current table model

fireObservedStateChange

void fireObservedStateChange()

Notifies the model source that the model state has changed, and that it should consider saving it.

This method was added to allow using the table within a Block when the pageBeginRender() listener of the implementation will not be called and automatic state storage will therefore be hard to implement.
