Preface
The ZKoss paging component by default works with the complete list of loaded records. To work with huge tables we need to modify the paging component so that it shows only the exact count of records that the user can see in the page of the listbox. By paging we intercept the paging event and do a special call to the database where we can overhanded the page and the pagesize (count of pulled records). So we became page for page only subsets of the result.
The interesting part to solve is to work with a database oriented paging mechanism AND accept changes of the sort-order triggered by the listheaders.
For an overview how the pagination can be coded look at the Smalltalk from Marcos de Sousa: Use Load-On-Demand to Handle Hugh Data..
In short: Pagination is a block wise loading of records.
Advantage:
- reduces DB work;
- reduces network traffic between Database and the application server;
- reduces cpu and memory demand
- reduces the response time;
- increase the data throughput
Problem Definition
If we want database paged records from a table and would like to allow changing the sort order of these data by clicking on the listheaders we have to consider two things:
- First we must do consequently the sorting on the database to prevent users confusion if the resultset sorted in the grid.
- Secondly we need the right place in code where we can catch which of the listheaders is clicked for changing the sorting.
- Third we need a mechanism to remember what is the originally query that should now be modified for sorting in an other sort order.
Why we need this?
Let us consider what we want from the database side: First we have a sql statement with a where clause. Second we want to add/manipulate the order by clause. By changing the sort order we need to remember what is in the select clause and in the where clause.
We can store pieces of the sql statement in separate strings and stick it together in the sequence we need for the new sort order.
Hmmmm. But what is when we do not work with direct sql statements and we would work with the Hibernate Criteria Classes. In all times we have do many lines to coding for storing/manipulating the sql stuff. Further in fine separated tiers we want not to have hibernate calls in the frontend.
Solution
So as we all times said: All is an object.
We do solve our problem with a helper class.
These helper class should do the following:
- store the entity class
- add/edit the where clause
- add/edit the order by clause
So by sorting in the listbox we access all times these search object in which the select statement and the where clause are initially stored so we must modify only the sort by clause.
I remember me that I have a few days before seen a framework on code.google. It called Hibernate-Generic-DAO. See: http://code.google.com/p/hibernate-generic-dao/ So I have a second look on it and see that they work with a search object. This search object are filled in the frontend than overhanded to the backend and evaluated their. Going deeper in it I recognize that this class is exactly what we need. Unfortunately we already have our own Generic DAO Base class so we became problems to integrate only the search class from the framework.
I have contacted David Wolverton the developer of this framework. After a few emails he surprised me with a new version. In it he had separated the search class in an own package for easily using with zkoss or other frameworks. Absolute great thanks to David Wolverton.
The way is the goal
As playing with the search object i see that there is a need for a second helper class. By thinking over a migration for all our sample listboxes to do paging and sorting with the search object we need a wrapper class around the listbox. In which we can catch the paging and sorting events. So we can use these class for all of our listboxes.
The implementation
I will show the implementation with a search mask for customers. By writing this smalltalk I see there is a need for a third helper class if I will comfortably use it for other search masks. Above all if I will open the search mask new after closing it because for editing the old search definition.
I hope you have downloaded the newest jars from the Hibernate-Generic-DAO framework. Today the version 0.4.3 is actually with a separate search class package. You found the link for downloading ( http://code.google.com/p/hibernate-generic-dao/ ) on the right side under Links --> jars .
All components in the used zul-files are autowired, means all the window controllers are extended from a BaseController that implements AfterCompose where the components are binded. So in java-code we have full access to the used zkoss components over their component-id's.
Helper Classes:
- PagedListWrapper.java / Helper class for easier working of changing the sort order of paged records. Catches the paging / sorting events.
- SearchOperators.java / Extendable helper class for showing several search operators in a listbox.
- SearchOperatorListModelItemRenderer.java / ItemRenderer for SearchOperator listbox.
- HibernateSearchObject.java / capsulates the search object from the Hibernate-Generic-DAO framework.
Ok. Let』s begin.
1. The listbox
We have a listbox that』s shows a list of customers. In this sample we have created test data with 210.027 records. You can see the total Size in the right border on top. PageSize is 20 records per page.
We fill the listbox initially when we created the window. We created a search object on which only the entity class is assigned and a initial sort order is set.
The Hibernate-Generic-DAO framework doesn』t only give back a List of objects. It has a SearchResult object that holds the List and the Total Count of the query.
So we call the second constructor of our PagedListWrapper and have the total Size of records too.
public void onCreate$window_customerList(Event event) throws Exception {
. . .
// ++ create the searchObject and init sorting ++//
searchObj = new HibernateSearchObject(Kunde.class);
searchObj.addSort("kunName1", false);
setSearchObj(searchObj);
// set the paging component params
int pageSize = 20;
pagingCustomerList.setPageSize(pageSize);
pagingCustomerList.setDetailed(true);
// Binded but not used listheaders must be declared like ->
// lh.setSortAscending(""); lh.setSortDescending("")
listheader_CustNo.setSortAscending(new FieldComparator("kunNr", true));
listheader_CustNo.setSortDescending(new FieldComparator("kunNr", false));
listheader_CustMatchcode.setSortAscending(new FieldComparator("kunMatchcode", true));
listheader_CustMatchcode.setSortDescending(new FieldComparator("kunMatchcode", false));
listheader_CustName1.setSortAscending(new FieldComparator("kunName1", true));
listheader_CustName1.setSortDescending(new FieldComparator("kunName1", false));
listheader_CustName2.setSortAscending(new FieldComparator("kunName2", true));
listheader_CustName2.setSortDescending(new FieldComparator("kunName2", false));
listheader_CustCity.setSortAscending(new FieldComparator("kunOrt", true));
listheader_CustCity.setSortDescending(new FieldComparator("kunOrt", false));
listBoxCustomer.setModel( new PagedListWrapper<Kunde>(listBoxCustomer,
pagingCustomerList,
getTestService().getSRBySearchObject( searchObj, 0, pageSize),
searchObj));
listBoxCustomer.setItemRenderer(new CustomerListModelItemRenderer());
}
2. The search mask
The search mask have a few textbox components that corresponds to the table fields. At last there is a dropdown listbox that holds a list of branch objects that a customer can be assigned to. This is a relation on database side to the branch table. Between the label and the textboxes we have dropdown listboxes that holds all implemented filters by the SearchOperator.java helper class. See the documentation of the search object for more filters.
These filter operators are in a helper class called SearchOperators.java that can be extended. By pressing the search button we call our search method and added for every not empty input field a new filter type with the value to our search object.
/**
* Search/filter data for the filled out fields<br>
* <br>
* 1. Checks for each textbox if there are a value. <br>
* 2. Checks which operator is selected. <br>
* 3. Store the filter and value in the searchObject. <br>
* 4. Call the ServiceDAO method with searchObject as parameter. <br>

listBox.setModel(new PagedListWrapper<Kunde>(listBox, paging,
customerCtrl.getTestService().getSRBySearchObject(so, 0, ps), so));
}
}
3. The result.
Now we have filtered 929 records that agrees with the search definition. We can now sort the data by pressing a listheader. In our case shown in the images we sort on 『Matchcode』 ascending and descending.
Because we do the sort on the database. By changing the sort order the actual page are set back to page 1.
4. Modifying the search definition
If we now call the search mask again we can re-read the stored properties/values from the search object to our mask and modifying the search definition.

private void restoreOperator(Listbox listbox, Filter filter) {
if (filter.getOperator() == Filter.OP_EQUAL) {

// Delete used '%' signs if the operator is like or iLike
String str = StringUtils.replaceChars(filter.getValue().toString(), "%", "");
filter.setValue(str);
listbox.setSelectedIndex(7);
}
}
We extend the search criteria about the 『Name 2』 with a equals like 『Vossen』. We became a new resultset about 9 records.
5. What happens on the backend side
Remember! All what we have done is creating a PagedListWrapper that holds mainly the listbox, paging component, a initialList or initial SearchResult object and the search object. The backend call when paging or sorting is done by the refreshModel() method.
In this case we need the totalSize of the filtered records only by the initial call. Paging and sorting doesn』t change the totalSize of the resultset because the select and where clause are all times the same.
In our backend DAO there are two methods. Both uses the HibernateSearchProcessor from the Hibernate-Generic_DAO framework to generate a hibernate hql-statement from the search object properties i.e. filters, sorts, entities, values. Absolut great work. Thanks to David.
As you can see the only difference is the result type. Either a List or an object that holds the List and the TotalSize of the query result.
Tip:
By migrating my listbox models to the paged version I have running in the old known 『hibernate session closed』 problem while calling the getter of a related object in the itemRenderer. Formerly these are running well. To solved this you must only add this deeper loaded property to the searchObject with mySearchObject.addFetch(Property String). It』s impressed me much.
6. Conclusion
Paging is an absolut must go criteria for an application that will handle huge sets of data. If we want to allow that the user can sorting the data we need to implement a logic that can remember what is the originally select statement and where clause before modifying the sort order. In this case we can work with a helper class that can hold our search definition. In this article we work with the seperated search object class from the Hibernate-Generic-DAO framework. Additionally this tool can on the backend side generate hql code (Hibernate Query Language) from the stored filter properties. To make the work with this easier we use a few helper classes that we can reuse for every listbox.
But last not least an often missing but interesting point is HOW to integrate in such a paging mechanism the listheaders sort order of the list. In the PagedListWrapper we catch the listheaders events, evaluate them and manipulate our search object with the corresponding listheaders sort order.
Many thanks for reading.
