Get column index to dataset.

Hello,
 
I have a report with a main table, and in each cell there is a subtable.
I would like get the column index of the main table and pass this value into the 'Dataset parameter binding' of the subtable .
 
How can achieve this ?
 
Thanks.

I am not aware of an out of the box function that will return the column index. 
 
Since you are designing the report, wouldn't you know the column # to pass in? What is your use case?
 
The closest would be either use a global variable and increment in the "Data Set Parameter Binding..." of the subtable for each cell/subtable.
 
Or this won't get the actual index, but you can get the report item's Element ID via reportContext.getDesignHandle().findElement("subTable").getContainer().getID();

Thanks Clement, Use an increment in the dataset parameter binding resolve my problem.
