I'm looking to have n number of tables in one component with n number of different data sources, but with the same columns. These data sources need to be broken up. The user has a simple form that can add a new row to any one of those tables, and then from within the addRow function I will call renderRows() on that specific table. I'm using ViewChild to accomplish this, but for some reason only one of the n tables are actually updating on the fly when a row is added.
In the Stackblitz, what I want is that both tables look the exact same, so they have the same data and are rendered the same. When clicking the "Rerender" button, both tables should get a row added to their datasource.
This code is really close what I'm working with, and it also shows my problem. Here is the Stackblitz: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-mat-table-render-rows-1aelgx?file=app/table-filtering-example.html,app/table-filtering-example.ts and in case that link doesn't work.

CodePudding user response：
You can select the table by its template reference @ViewChild('TemplateRef') - https://angular.io/api/core/ViewChild#description.
In your example, you are basically pushing the same data into the same table twice.
Update the following lines as shown below:
export class TableFilteringExample {
@ViewChild('table') table: MatTable<Element>;
@ViewChild('second_table') second_table: MatTable<Element>;
. . .
}
