Android Question Which 'Grid' view is best

Alwinl · Aug 8, 2013

I was wondering which view would be best suited to displaying a grid of data from a database. Preferably with sorting from header clicks and maybe a searching facility, the more features the better.

I have been using TableView but was curious as to what other's have used or what is the most up to date.

If your table is backed by a SQLite database then it should be quite simple to sort or filter the data. You should just issue a query and refill the table with the updated data.

Yeah Erel, it's not so much about how to use the TableView, more wanted to know if there are other grids out there and what the other guys are using.

I use Erel's Tableview class. It is very easy to use and does everything I need.

I use the TableView.
You can find a version, not yet offially published, that loads a SQLDBTable directly into the Table.
I think with TableView you have more 'freedom' than with a WebView.
I have never used the Grid library nor the B4AGrid library.

Best regards.
