ZK 6.5 (or later)
Introduction
bla bla you have some big data... how to display
article already handles display big data in a flat list http://books.zkoss.org/wiki/Small_Talks/2009/July/Handling_huge_data_using_ZK
The challenge
grouping is a powerful feature in ZK but also adds an extra layer of complexity
paging and grouping challenges
1. groups can be open or closed (also interactively)
- -> the total count and the number of pages changes, when opening/closing nodes... (needs efficient counting, and state keeping)
2. groups can have arbitrary number of children
- -> random access to a specific page ... how to know the current group and position inside the group for that page
- --> implement a feaseable search
3. minimize DB operations (accumulating network/DB latency)
- -> caching vs. memory consumption
1. + 2. + 3. !!!! combining all three in an efficient, memory preserving way
limitations... needs to store the state in memory (humans are limited, so one is unlikely to toggle 100+ groups)
Maxing out what is possible... ZK GroupsModel supports int indexes so go up to Integer.MAX_VALUE (~ 2.000.000.000 records)
not unrealistic -> Hibernate have changed their paging api to long already...
