Remarks

Row can only be a child of a Table.

Row can contain one or more Cell nodes.

A minimal valid row needs to have at least one Cell.

Examples

Shows how to create a table.

auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();
auto table = MakeObject<Table>(doc);
doc->get_FirstSection()->get_Body()->AppendChild(table);

// Tables contain rows, which contain cells, which may have paragraphs
// with typical elements such as runs, shapes, and even other tables.
// Calling the "EnsureMinimum" method on a table will ensure that
// the table has at least one row, cell, and paragraph.
auto firstRow = MakeObject<Row>(doc);
table->AppendChild(firstRow);

auto firstCell = MakeObject<Cell>(doc);
firstRow->AppendChild(firstCell);

auto paragraph = MakeObject<Paragraph>(doc);
firstCell->AppendChild(paragraph);

// Add text to the first call in the first row of the table.
auto run = MakeObject<Run>(doc, u"Hello world!");
paragraph->AppendChild(run);

doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"Table.CreateTable.docx");

Shows how to iterate through all tables in the document and print the contents of each cell.

auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(MyDir + u"Tables.docx");
SharedPtr<TableCollection> tables = doc->get_FirstSection()->get_Body()->get_Tables();

ASSERT_EQ(2, tables->ToArray()->get_Length());

for (int i = 0; i < tables->get_Count(); i++)
{
    std::cout << "Start of Table " << i << std::endl;

    SharedPtr<RowCollection> rows = tables->idx_get(i)->get_Rows();

    // We can use the "ToArray" method on a row collection to clone it into an array.
    ASPOSE_ASSERT_EQ(rows, rows->ToArray());
    ASPOSE_ASSERT_NS(rows, rows->ToArray());

    for (int j = 0; j < rows->get_Count(); j++)
    {
        std::cout << "\tStart of Row " << j << std::endl;

        SharedPtr<CellCollection> cells = rows->idx_get(j)->get_Cells();

        // We can use the "ToArray" method on a cell collection to clone it into an array.
        ASPOSE_ASSERT_EQ(cells, cells->ToArray());
        ASPOSE_ASSERT_NS(cells, cells->ToArray());

        for (int k = 0; k < cells->get_Count(); k++)
        {
            String cellText = cells->idx_get(k)->ToString(SaveFormat::Text).Trim();
            std::cout << "\t\tContents of Cell:" << k << " = \"" << cellText << "\"" << std::endl;
        }

        std::cout << "\tEnd of Row " << j << std::endl;
    }

    std::cout << "End of Table " << i << "\n" << std::endl;
}

Shows how to build a nested table without using a document builder.

void CreateNestedTable()
{
    auto doc = MakeObject<Document>();

    // Create the outer table with three rows and four columns, and then add it to the document.
    SharedPtr<Table> outerTable = CreateTable(doc, 3, 4, u"Outer Table");
    doc->get_FirstSection()->get_Body()->AppendChild(outerTable);

    // Create another table with two rows and two columns and then insert it into the first table's first cell.
    SharedPtr<Table> innerTable = CreateTable(doc, 2, 2, u"Inner Table");
    outerTable->get_FirstRow()->get_FirstCell()->AppendChild(innerTable);

    doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"Table.CreateNestedTable.docx");
}

static SharedPtr<Table> CreateTable(SharedPtr<Document> doc, int rowCount, int cellCount, String cellText)
{
    auto table = MakeObject<Table>(doc);

    for (int rowId = 1; rowId <= rowCount; rowId++)
    {
        auto row = MakeObject<Row>(doc);
        table->AppendChild(row);

        for (int cellId = 1; cellId <= cellCount; cellId++)
        {
            auto cell = MakeObject<Cell>(doc);
            cell->AppendChild(MakeObject<Paragraph>(doc));
            cell->get_FirstParagraph()->AppendChild(MakeObject<Run>(doc, cellText));

            row->AppendChild(cell);
        }
    }

    // You can use the "Title" and "Description" properties to add a title and description respectively to your table.
    // The table must have at least one row before we can use these properties.
    // These properties are meaningful for ISO / IEC 29500 compliant .docx documents (see the OoxmlCompliance class).
    // If we save the document to pre-ISO/IEC 29500 formats, Microsoft Word ignores these properties.
    table->set_Title(u"Aspose table title");
    table->set_Description(u"Aspose table description");

    return table;
}
