dhtmlxGrid for a JSP project using JDeveloper

Hello, mates.

I’m new to dhtmlxGrid and I find it very interesting to learn. As with all forms of learning though, you hit a snag now and then, and here’s my experience.

I am currently creating a small table migration web application. The premise is I need to show several rows of data to the client using JSP in a data grid, because they will be selecting the rows to transfer from one table to another and they can’t just transfer everything. With that in mind, I decided to use dhtmlxGrid to show a table with two columns, one with a checkbox, and another with distinct data queried from a database, and a submit button. Anything they check and submit is removed from the grid in the client, but not in the table in the DB.

So the snag I got is probably pretty basic and pretty early in the development cycle: I can’t get the dhtmlx connector to run yet, but the grid and table is all set. I am currently using an Oracle database and an Oracle Java IDE, JDeveloper, which I am new at also. I’m looking for any advice from users of JDev as to how to tackle this problem with regards to servlet construction using the Connector API and a few tips on how JDev works in general. Sorry if I got a little long winded here, but I thought it’d help by being a bit more detailed.

Cheers in hopes to learning more from you,

You can try to use dhtmlxConnectors on the server side. Please find more information here dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxC … x.shtml?mn

I’ve read about this before and I’ve tried it, however I am confused as to how to exactly to “import” the connector .jar since I haven’t fully wrapped my head around JDeveloper yet. Still, thank you for the help.

Add the connector.jar to the build path through your IDE. I am not sure how to do that in JDeveloper. In Eclipse, just copy the jar to the project and right click the jar and add it to build path.
