ListGrid getField returns null

[mpet]

Hi,

using SmartGWT EE 2.3 in FF, when i try to access a listGridField through getField() i get null pointer error. Any idea ?

ListGrid myLG = new ListGrid();
myLG.setDataSource(DataSource.get("DataSource_Template"));
myLG.setAutoFetchData(true);
myLG.getField(1).getTitle();

I don't believe you can access the fields of the LG until it is drawn. The fields are built lazily.

ok but if i check for myLG.isCreated then it returns true.

you are right. after calling draw() on the listGrid first, it works.
Thanks.

There's also an method called "isDrawn()" where you can check the drawn-state of your element..
