GWT disable CellTable row highlight on mouse hover

Problem:

In GWT 2.7, how do I disable CellTable row highlight during mouse hover?

Solution:

Imagine your CellTable is named theTable. To disable the mouse-hover row highlighting, try the following:

theTable.setSkipRowHoverStyleUpdate(true);

Notes:

This was verified to work in GWT 2.7. Your mileage may vary with other versions. This reminder was meant as a quick reference for myself, so it's a bit brief. Check out the references below for more detail.

Also note that the above code might also work for GXT DataGrid, depending on version.
