    • Method Detail

      • getItemCount

        protected abstract int getItemCount()
        Returns the total number of items in this container, including those that are currently hidden because they are out of view.
        Returns:
        the total number of items in this container
      • updateItemCount

        protected abstract void updateItemCount()
        This method is called when it is possible that the item count has changed (i.e. scrolling has occurred, the control has resized, etc). This method should recalculate the item count and store that for future use by the getItemCount() method.
      • createVirtualFlow

        protected VirtualFlow<I> createVirtualFlow()
        Create the virtualized container that handles the layout and scrolling of all the cells. This enables skin subclasses to provide a custom VirtualFlow implementation. If not overridden, this method intantiates a default VirtualFlow instance.
        Returns:
        newly created VirtualFlow instance

        the virtualized container
