Problem in implementing serial number in table layout jdev 10.1.3.3

Question

Hi all, i am trying to add and display the serial number of records in a transient field in a web page as part of a table. I 've tries the following code:
public Number getAa() {       
ApplicationModule am=this.getApplicationModule();
ViewObject vo=am.findViewObject("--viewobject name--");
return new Number(vo.getCurrentRowIndex()+1);
It works perfectly in form layout but in table layout it does not refresh the index in each record. what is wrong?

Hi,
a table doesn't set each row as current when rendering the UI. It just iterates over the collection of rows. If the row number is transient anyway, then you can try and use the statusVar property of a table. Give it a vaulue (e.g. "var") and then reference it from an output text in a column you add to the able as #{var.index}
