Getting Started (1.6)

Installation (1.6.x)

Plugin install

Two binary plugins are available to download from SourceForge:

  • nattable-core - NatTable core
  • nattable-extensions - NatTable extensions, such as GlazedLists integration

The core plugin can be used independently from the extensions plugin, but the extension plugin requires the core.

Note that the extension plugin also requires a GlazedLists plugin. The next version of GlazedLists will be released with plugin metadata, but the current release version (1.7.0) does not have this. Because of this, we have repackaged the GlazedLits 1.7.0 jar with plugin metadata, which you can download here.

Also note that nattable requires the log4j bundle. If you do not already have the log4j bundle installed, you can get it from Orbit.

Drop the desired plugins into your Eclipse dropins folder (Eclipse 3.4) or in your plugins folder (pre-Eclipse 3.4) and restart Eclipse to use them.

Source install

You can download the source zip from SourceForge, or checkout the source from SVN. You can then import the source projects into your workspace. Please see the Developer Notes for more detail on how to set up and work with the source.

Using NatTable

The NatTable source contains a net.sourceforge.nattable.example project that contains a number of snippets and example programs showing how to use NatTable and demonstrating NatTable's features.
