build 200704241200: Steps: 1. Create a project(web+visual web) 2. add a table to the page1. 3. bind the table with a persistence entity array, which is a attribute added in SessionBean1. 4. deploy/run the application and it works fine. 5. Back to design view, click the table component and do table layout. Observe: defaultTableDataProvider is not shown in the Table layout - Get Data From combo box. Workaround: drag & drop a table component from palette and then do table layout.
This is by design. When a table component is added a default table data provider is created just to show some dummy data. When the table is bound to some data then this dummy data is removed. If you have two tables and one is bound to the default table data provider and the other to some other, then the default data provider is not removed.
close the issue.
