.getSelectedRow() is returning -1

Question

I have written a \"double-click\" event on my JTable. My JTable, viz. myTaskTable is populated with a number of rows having multiple columns. I want the row ind

Answer 1

Get the row index using the event, not the table selection:

final int selectedRowIndex = table.rowAtPoint(mouseEvent.getPoint());
// If the rows are sorted or filtered
final int modelRowIndex = table.convertRowIndexToModel(selectedRowIndex);

getSelectedRow() would not work with multiple selected rows (multiple selections allowed), as it will always return "the index of the first selected row".

Answer 2

have you tried to put e.consume(); as the last statement?

public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e){
 if(e.getModifiers() == MouseEvent.BUTTON1_MASK){
   if(e.getClickCount() == 2){
     int selRow = myTaskTable.getSelectedRow();
     System.out.println("GridReport double clicked on row="+selRow);
     e.consume();
    }
  }
}

normaly e.consume(); is called when you are done with your reactive code. This clears dependencies of the Event, so it might also clear the selected Row.
