dataTable does not show any data

I'm trying to create a dataTable with my own data: the code is like this:

<p:dataTable id="bufferData" >
    <p:column headerText="Info" style="width:140px;" >
        <h:outputText value="Total buffer size" /> 
        <h:outputText value="Entry size" /> 
        <h:outputText value="Number of entries" /> 
    </p:column>
    <p:column headerText="R-P Buffer" style="width:140px;">
            <h:outputText value="-" /> 
            <h:outputText value="-" /> 
            <h:outputText value="-" /> 
    </p:column>
    <p:column headerText="P-W Buffer" style="width:140px;">
            <h:outputText value="-" /> 
            <h:outputText value="-" /> 
            <h:outputText value="-" /> 
    </p:column>
</p:dataTable>

but when I run it I see an empty table. I want to see my data, how can I ?

You have missed few attributes to mention in dataTable tag.

<p:dataTable id="bufferData" value="#{managedBean.listOfObjects}" var="value">
    <p:column headerText="Info" style="width:140px;" >
        <h:outputText value="#{value.field1}" />  
        <h:outputText value="#{value.field2}" />  
    </p:column>

     // Columns .......

</p:dataTable>

You must set the var and value attributes.

<p:dataTable var="car" value="#{dtBasicView.cars}">
//columns
</p:dataTable>

After that, you will need to bind value attribute with your managedbean.

See the doc and example on the datatable showcase.
