Editable JTable Tutorial

Question

Are there any good books or website that go over creating a JTable? I want to make one column editable. I would like to actually put a inherited JCheckBox

Answer 1

If you are trying to use a simple JTable with 1 column editable and you know the column location you could always use default table model and overload the isCellEditable call.

something like this :

myTable.setModel(new DefaultTableModel(){
@Override
public boolean isCellEditable(int row, int column) {
    if (column == x) {
        return true;
    } else
        return false;
}
});

And for the check box create a renderer class

MyCheckBoxRenderer extends JCheckBox implements TableCellRenderer
