Looping in JSF dataTable

To build a dataTable with dynamic columns in RichFaces,
we may use <c:foreach /> or <rich:columns /> in <rich:dataTable />

<rich:dataTable var="var" value="#{myBean.list}">
    <c:foreach var="column" value="#{myBean.columns}">
        <rich:column>
            <f:facet name="header">
                <h:outputLabel value="#{column.name}" />
            </f:facet>
            <h:outputLabel value="#{var[column.value]}" />
        </rich:column>
    </c:foreach>
</rich:dataTable>

But the same is not applicable in <p:dataTable />
because <ui:repeat /> and <c:foreach /> is not working in <p:dataTable />
Thus, the only solution to achieve dynamic column in <p:dataTable /> is to use <p:columns />

<p:dataTable var="var" value="#{myBean.list}">
    <p:columns var="colomn" value="#{myBean.columns}">
        <f:facet name="header">
            <h:outputLabel value="#{column.name}" />
        </f:facet>
        <h:outputLabel value="#{var[column.value]}" />
    </p:columns>
</p:dataTable>

With <c:foreach /> or <ui:repeat />, more flexibilities could be achieved.
Since they are not working in <p:dataTable />, the only way to achieve looping is <p:columns /> with less flexibilities.


Done!!
