Start editing in a cell in JTable on gaining focus

Question

I have defined cell editors for the two columns in my table in the following manner:

Java Code:

JComboBox combo = new JComboBox();
//code to add item         


        

Answer 1

1. This example overrides editCellAt() in a JTable having a DefaultCellEditor using JTextField.

2. You can bind the Space key to the startEditing action defined for JTable:

   table.getInputMap().put(
       KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_SPACE, 0), "startEditing");
