Hello,
Is it possible to bind the row header icons with the state of an entity? Like newly created (not yet saved) or edited/dirty (not yet saved), etc? I’m trying to do this with inline/single-screen editing and need a way to visually indicate new and changed rows.
Sorry for a long reply. You can use PersistenceHelper.isNew to determine the new state of an entity. For example:
if (PersistenceHelper.isNew(entity)) {
return "font-icon:PLUS_SQUARE";
}
Unfortunately, we don’t have any public API to determine the modified state of an entity, but you can cast your data source to internal interface DatasourceImplementation and use getItemsToUpdate to find out is an entity modified but not saved yet.
