The CISFO:ROWTABLEAREA2 control is used for rendering lists. Have a look at the following example:

The XML form definition is:

<cisfo:foppage2 objectclass="PdfTableAdapter" pageheight="29.7cm" pagewidth="21cm" margintop="1cm" marginbottom="0.5cm" marginleft="1cm" marginright="1cm" headerheight="1.5cm" footerheight="1.3cm">
    <cisfo:styleclasses2>
        <cisfo:style2 stylename="HL" backgroundcolor="#C0C0C0" bordercolor="#000000" borderstyle="solid" borderwidth="0.1mm">
        </cisfo:style2>
        <cisfo:style2 stylename="IL" bordercolor="#000000" borderstyle="solid" borderwidth="0.1mm">
        </cisfo:style2>
    </cisfo:styleclasses2>
    <cisfo:header2>
        <cisfo:rowtextblock2 text="Header" textalign="center">
        </cisfo:rowtextblock2>
    </cisfo:header2>
    <cisfo:footer2>
        <cisfo:hline2>
        </cisfo:hline2>
        <cisfo:vdist2 height="0.3cm">
        </cisfo:vdist2>
        <cisfo:rowtextblock2 text="Page" textalign="center">
            <cisfo:pagenumber2 separator=" of ">
            </cisfo:pagenumber2>
        </cisfo:rowtextblock2>
    </cisfo:footer2>
    <cisfo:body2>
        <cisfo:rowtablearea2 columnwidths="5cm;9cm;5cm" gridprop="lines">
            <cisfo:headline2>
                <cisfo:row2>
                    <cisfo:celltext2 text="Article" stylename="HL">
                    </cisfo:celltext2>
                    <cisfo:celltext2 text="Description" stylename="HL">
                    </cisfo:celltext2>
                    <cisfo:celltext2 text="Price" stylename="HL">
                    </cisfo:celltext2>
                </cisfo:row2>
            </cisfo:headline2>
            <cisfo:repeat2>
                <cisfo:row2>
                    <cisfo:replace2 valueprop="atricle" stylename="IL">
                    </cisfo:replace2>
                    <cisfo:replace2 valueprop="description" stylename="IL">
                    </cisfo:replace2>
                    <cisfo:replace2 valueprop="price" stylename="IL">
                    </cisfo:replace2>
                </cisfo:row2>
            </cisfo:repeat2>
        </cisfo:rowtablearea2>
    </cisfo:body2>
</cisfo:foppage2>

Below the ROWTABLEAREA2 control, you see an arrangement of:

• CISFO:HEADLINE2 - represents the headline; the headline is repeated on every page of the list.

• CISFO: REPEAT2 - represents the part that is repeated as many times as items of the list are available.

The data object representation's class looks as follows:

public class PdfTableAdapter
    implements IFOPDataObject
{
    
    // default constructor
    public PdfTableAdapter()
    {
    }

    public PdfTableAdapter(PDFFOPPreviewOnly previewObject)
    {
        for (int i=0; i<50; i++)
        {
            LinesItem li = new LinesItem();
            li.setAtricle("47" + i);
            li.setDescription("Article 47" + i);
            li.setPrice("100,00");
            m_lines.add(li);
        }
    }
    
    // ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // property access
    // ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    // class >LinesItem<
    public class LinesItem
    {
        // property >atricle<
        String m_atricle;
        public String getAtricle() { return m_atricle; }
        public void setAtricle(String value) { m_atricle = value; }

        // property >description<
        String m_description;
        public String getDescription() { return m_description; }
        public void setDescription(String value) { m_description = value; }

        // property >price<
        String m_price;
        public String getPrice() { return m_price; }
        public void setPrice(String value) { m_price = value; }
    }

    // property >lines<
    GRIDCollection m_lines = new GRIDCollection();
    public GRIDCollection getLines() { return m_lines; }
    ...
    ...
    ...
}
