public interface ReportGridDisplayCell
extends java.lang.Cloneable
```
This is the base interface of those used by the ReportGridTransformImpl to generate the content of a single cell.

To generate the HTML for a grid, the Transform iterates through its data and for each cell it will:
1. Create an instance of the cell using reflexion.
2. Call the corresponding init method.
3. Call its generateOutput method.
Users can modify the HTML generated for a cell by creating a custom class that implements this interface. The easiest way to accomplish this is to extend one of the out-of-the-box implementations provided by Microstrateg Web, all of which extend the AbstractReportGridDisplayCell.

To learn how the Transform assigns a class for a particular cell type, please refer to ReportGridTransformImpl.

  - reset
```
void reset()
```
    Reset all of the instance variables. This method is very important when improve the memory performance: we create only one instance for a particular cell type and reuse it instead of creating a new instance for each concrete grid cell. Therefore, it saves a lot of memory. For implementation of this method, please follow the workflow of how all the instance variables are initialized in the class hierarchy when a new instance is created: superclass instance variables are initialized first, subclass instance variables are initialized second. Note: for the purpose of cell reuse.
