Constructs a PdfTable-object.

Parameters:

table - a Table

left - the left border on the page

right - the right border on the page

top - the start position of the top of the table

since: a - parameter of this method has been removed in iText 2.0.8

 final float cellpadding() 
{
		return table.getPadding();
}

Returns the cellpadding of the table.

 final float cellspacing() 
{
		return table.getSpacing();
}

Returns the cellspacing of the table.

 int columns() 
{
		return columns;
}

Returns the number of columns of the table.

 ArrayList getCells() 
{
		return cells;
}

Returns the arraylist with the cells of the table.

 ArrayList getHeaderCells() 
{
		return headercells;
}

Returns the arraylist with the cells of the table header.

 public float getOffset() 
{
		return table.getOffset();
}

Gets the offset of this table.

 boolean hasHeader() 
{
		return !headercells.isEmpty();
}

Checks if there is a table header.

 public final boolean hasToFitPageCells() 
{
		return table.isCellsFitPage();
}

Checks if the cells of this Table have to fit a page.

 public final boolean hasToFitPageTable() 
{
		return table.isTableFitsPage();
}

Checks if this Table has to fit a page.

 int rows() 
{
		return cells.isEmpty() ? 0 : ((PdfCell)cells.get(cells.size()-1)).rownumber()+1;
}

Get the number of rows

 public int type() 
{
		return Element.TABLE;
}

  void updateRowAdditions() 
{
        table.complete();
		updateRowAdditionsInternal();
		table.deleteAllRows();
}

Updates the table row additions in the underlying table object and deletes all table rows, in order to preserve memory and detect future row additions.

Pre-requisite: the object must have been built with the parameter supportUpdateRowAdditions equals to true.
