    public abstract class RowData
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements java.io.Serializable
    The RowData class defines a representation for describing and accessing a list of data.

    The RowData object maintains a position in the list pointing to its current row of data. The initial position is before the first row in the list. Row indexes are numbered starting with 0.

    The number, types, and properties of the list's columns are provided by the RowMetaData object returned by the getMetaData method.

    Individual data objects in the current row can have properties, or a list of objects, that can be associated with the data. Properties can be set with the setObjectProperties method.

    RowData objects generate the following events:

    • PropertyChangeEvent
    • VetoableChangeEvent
