Creating the right-hand sidebar

In this recipe, we are going to create a sidebar to be placed on the right-hand side. This sidebar will be used for some dynamic contents based on the main contents at the center.

How to do it...

  1. Define the method getRightSidebar: 
    public ContentPanel getRightSideBar()
{
ContentPanel rightSidebarPanel = new ContentPanel();
rightSidebarPanel.setHeading("Right" Sidebar");
return rightSidebarPanel;
}
  2. Call the add method of class ContentPanel in the constructor to add the sidebar in the content panel: 
    add(getRightSideBar(), rightSidebarLayoutData);

How it works...

The method getRightSideBar creates a content panel instance, and sets a heading Right Sidebar. This heading will be modified later.

The right-hand sidebar created by this method is added in the east region of the main content panel by invoking add(getRightSideBar(), rightSidebarLayoutData) in the constructor.
