Question

I have an ArrayList in my server I want to display it in a grid at client side. I am using RPC Mechanism for this purpose. The RPC call was successful but while am adding pagination it did not work. If have not done this in a proper way please guide me to do this correctly.

I just took the ArrayList to client and then added to grid. I thought that this is causing problems .

Here is my code:

    ArrayList valls=new ArrayList();
    public ContentPanel mainPanel1 = new ContentPanel();
    public PagingToolBar toolBar = new PagingToolBar(10);  
    public ContentPanel cpc=new ContentPanel();

    public ContentPanel mainPanel = new ContentPanel(); 
    public ContentPanel cp = new ContentPanel();
    public ListStore<BeanModelType> clientList=new ListStore<BeanModelType>();

    public ListStore<BeanModelType>  createGrid()
    {

    System.out.print("METHOD DDDDDDDDD");
    final FeedServiceAsync feedService =Registry.get(RSSReaderConstants.FEED_SERVICE);

    feedService.createNewFeed(new AsyncCallback<Feed>() {

        @Override
        public void onFailure(Throwable caught) 
        {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            Info.display("RSSReader", "Unable to create a new feed");
            System.out.print("ERRORRRRRR");
        }
        @Override
        public void onSuccess(Feed result)
        {   
           ArrayList valls=result.getVal();     
           PagingModelMemoryProxy proxy = new PagingModelMemoryProxy(TestData.getClients(result.getVal()));  
           PagingLoader loader = new BasePagingLoader(proxy);  
           loader.setRemoteSort(true);  

               /*    

               final PagingToolBar toolBar = new PagingToolBar(5);  
               toolBar.bind(loader);  
               loader.load(0, 5);  

               */
               clientList.add(TestData.getClients(valls)); 

               /*
                * if we remove the above code only shows the  pagination not the content value 
                *

                * 
                * 
                * but int his method its not working sirrrr aM SORRY TO SAY THIS
                * 
                * 
                */

               clientList = new ListStore<BeanModelType>(loader); 
               toolBar.bind(loader);  
               loader.load(0, 10);  
               loader.setRemoteSort(true);

        }
    });

return clientList;

You cant do that. feedService.createNewFeed is Async process. What you had return on createGrid method is an empty clientList. reconfigure the grid inside onSuccess method

public void onSuccess(Feed result){
.... 
clientList = new ListStore<BeanModelType>(loader); 
toolBar.bind(loader);  
loader.setRemoteSort(true);
grid.reconfigure(clientList, grid.getColumnModel());
}
