Hi there! I have an issue with gathering data from bunch of decimalboxes which are stored in a listbox via listcell. Here's the code:
ZUL: listbox style="border:none" id="Grid" multiple="true" rows="20" width="100%" selectedItem="@{feemain$composer.current}"> <listhead sizable="true"> <listheader label="a" width="70%"/> <listheader label="b" width="30%" sort="auto"/> </listhead> </listbox>
Java: this.Grid.setModel(new BindingListModelList(Service.getCodes(branch, alias) , true)); this.Grid.setItemRenderer((ListitemRenderer)new ListitemRenderer() { public void render(final Listitem row, final Object data) throws Exception { String Data = (String) data; Decimalbox db = new Decimalbox(); row.appendChild(new Listcell(Data)); Listcell haddacc = new Listcell(); haddacc.appendChild(db); row.appendChild(haddacc); } });
Quantity of rows is controlled by Grid.setModel as the quantity of Decimalboxes too. I don't have any id of them to point.
I tried
System.out.print("item: "+HumoGrid.getItems().get(0).toString());
but it gives me this:
item: Listitem f2DP51>
Also tried
System.out.print("item: "+((Decimalbox)HumoGrid.getItems().get(0)).getValue().toString());
but it returns
org.zkoss.zul.Listitem cannot be cast to org.zkoss.zul.Decimalbox
So how can I get the data from these decimalboxes? Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
Welcome on the forums :)
The structure of listbox is

<listbox>
<listitem>
<listcell>
content (including the decimalbox)
listbox.getItems() will return a collection of Listitem objects, which is to say roughly, a list of Objects representing the rows currently existing in the listbox. This may or may not be the full list of possible rows, and may or may not be the same length as the model (depending on paging and render on demand)
What are you trying to do? :) Are you retrieving "form" data at the end of user inputs? Or are you accessing data in an event listener? There is almost always a better approach to retrieving data than searching the component tree manually.
Side note: this @{feemain$composer.current} looks like the old (ZK 3) data binding syntax. Which ZK version are you running? This might impact how to best retrieve that data.
Also, bumped your karma for links. I'd recommend the zkfiddle if you'd like to send code samples.
Hello! Yep, I have to retrieve data from decimalboxes at the end of user inputs and this data must be connected with labels, which is uploaded by setModel. For example, Costco: 100 BestBuy: 253 And I have to get the String "Costco" and BigDecimal "100" to insert in the table after user presses Save.

You can set an ID on each of your target components, then query them to retrieve the component at the end, but that feels like overkill.
Since you are using the old data-binding syntax, you can consider using the tempalte + databinding syntax to write back to the data object directly, which you will then have control over in your Java class when submitting. Here's the archive links to the old docs on that topic : Web Format (ZK3) PDF format (ZK5)
If you don't want to go there, you can just use the onChange event to retrieve data when the user enters it in the component.
After all that, my actual recommendation would be to either move to MVC or MVVM with the current APIs, since you will find way better doc and examples on the latest versions ;) MVVM has a similar structure to the old databinding, so it could be the smoother transition. Then again, I'm aware that might be overkill if you are only changing a few screens on the app, so... your call there :D
