Question

I have this buttoncell

It’s returning a string, but can i return an actual button instead of this string "ReList", to which I can add ClickHandler, which i can disable, hide etc.
(as i want to disable/hide this cell)

 ButtonCell reListCell = new ButtonCell();
 reListColumn = new Column<EmployerJobs, String>(reListCell) {

   @Override
   public String getValue(EmployerJobs object) {        
       return "ReList";         
   }
 };

You have to add a FieldUpdater to the Column. See here for details.

ButtonCell reListCell = new ButtonCell();
 reListColumn = new Column<EmployerJobs, String>(reListCell) {
   @Override
   public String getValue(EmployerJobs object) {        
       return "ReList";         
   }
 };
reListColumn.setFieldUpdater(new FieldUpdater<EmployerJobs,String>() {
   @Override
   public void update(int index, EmployerJobs object, String value) {
        Window.alert("You clicked " + object.someField());
      }
});
