How to Join Tables in report generator?

If the code goes like this:

import mlreportgen.dom.*
tablecontent1 = { ... };
table1 = Table(tablecontent1);
...
tablecontent2 = { ... };
table2 = Table(tablecontent2);
...

Assuming 2 tables have same colomn number and definitively can adjust some other properties.

How can join them into one single table?

Thanks!

Hi John,

You can combine the cell array content and then create the DOM Table:

import mlreportgen.dom.*

tablecontent1 = { ... };
...
tablecontent2 = { ... };
...

% Combine the table content cell arrays and then create DOM Table
tableContent = [tablecontent1; tablecontent2];
table = Table(tableContent);
...

Thanks,

Hi, Rahul:

That was the issue. Because the Tables were made in different places and with lots of operations.If combining the cell array, it will requires complete recoding for all. That's why we seek whether if the 2 Tables can be joined together as DOM Tables.

Hi John,

In this case, you can merge the DOM tables as shown below:

import mlreportgen.dom.*
tablecontent1 = { ... };
table1 = Table(tablecontent1);
...
tablecontent2 = { ... };
table2 = Table(tablecontent2);
...

% First create a copy of the first table. 
% This will make sure that the new "mergedTable" has all the content of table1.
mergedTable = clone(table1);

% Now add second table content to the "mergedTable".
% This is done by adding a copy of each row of second table to the "mergedTable".
for i=1:length(table2.Children)
    row = table2.Children(i);
    append(mergedTable,clone(row));
end

Thanks,

Rahul
