Question

In my application im loading my data table with default values which placed in first page(After Logged in).while loading data,data table prompts ‘No Record Found’ which is confusing to the user.how do i hide that while loading in progress ?

Answer 1

I know it’s a bit obvious, but as you display default values anyway, you could set emptyMessage="" in your <p:dataTable>.

However, if you need an emptyMessage to be displayed later (e.g. when user-specific data is to be loaded), you could “disable” it upon first load using something like this:

emptyMessage="#{dataBean.firstLoad ? '' : 'No records found.'}"

where firstLoad would be a method in your backing bean which returns true when the user has just logged in (e.g. default values are to be loaded), and false when not, which would mean that user-specific data should be loaded and the <p:dataTable> could actually be empty.
