Setting table width

The width of a table can be set via its context. The following example creates a table and then sets the width and shows the output. The first width is 50 (line 8), the second 40 (line 11), and the third 30 characters (line 14).

AsciiTable at = new AsciiTable();
at.addRule();
at.addRow("row 1 col 1", "row 1 col 2");
at.addRule();
at.addRow("row 2 col 1", "row 2 col 2");
at.addRule();

at.getContext().setWidth(50);
System.out.println(at.render());

at.getContext().setWidth(40);
System.out.println(at.render());

at.getContext().setWidth(30);
System.out.println(at.render());

The first output is for a width of 50:

┌────────────────────────┬───────────────────────┐
│row 1 col 1             │row 1 col 2            │
├────────────────────────┼───────────────────────┤
│row 2 col 1             │row 2 col 2            │
└────────────────────────┴───────────────────────┘

The second output is for a width of 40:

┌───────────────────┬──────────────────┐
│row 1 col 1        │row 1 col 2       │
├───────────────────┼──────────────────┤
│row 2 col 1        │row 2 col 2       │
└───────────────────┴──────────────────┘

The third output is for a width of 30:

┌──────────────┬─────────────┐
│row 1 col 1   │row 1 col 2  │
├──────────────┼─────────────┤
│row 2 col 1   │row 2 col 2  │
└──────────────┴─────────────┘
