The right approach to update complex JTables, TableModel and others

问题


My GUI shows the vehicles in my park, and vehicles that I want to set availables in two different VehicleTables (classes that extend JTable). For availables I intend that these vehicles can be observed from an agent (third-part software). Both the tables show the descriptions of Vehicles in the rows...for this I have created VehicleTableModel and Vehicle classes. The Vehicle class is an abstract class and his subclasses are: Car, Truck, Trailer, etc. .

You can see a snapshot of my software:

My problems are these: In my current implementation I don't think of manage really good the updates of the rows. You can see in VehicleTableModel (fire...() methods) and in ShipperAgentGUI (coordinators and listeners). I think I have partially resolved this problem with the use of the Coordinator inner class for the updates between tables, but I don't know how optimize these. For example in case of delete or update of a row I make xxxTable.repaint(); ... the WHOLE table...

...another way?

ShipperAgentGUI.java

public class ShipperAgentGUI extends JFrame implements ActionListener {

    // Graphics variables..
    // bla bla...

    // Headers, TableModels, JTables for the tables
    private COLUMNS[] parkModelHeader = {COLUMNS.IMAGE_COLUMN, COLUMNS.TARGA_COLUMN,
        COLUMNS.CAR_TYPE_COLUMN, COLUMNS.MARCA_COLUMN, COLUMNS.STATE_COLUMN, COLUMNS.PTT_COLUMN };
    private COLUMNS[] availablesModelHeader = {COLUMNS.IMAGE_COLUMN, COLUMNS.TARGA_COLUMN,
        COLUMNS.CAR_TYPE_COLUMN, COLUMNS.MARCA_COLUMN };

    private VehicleTableModel parkModel = new VehicleTableModel(parkModelHeader);
    private VehicleTableModel availablesModel = new VehicleTableModel(availablesModelHeader);

    private VehicleTable parkTable;
    private VehicleTable availablesTable;

    // My third-part software, a JADE agent:
    protected ShipperAgent shipperAgent;


    // --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    // CONSTRUCTOR

    ShipperAgentGUI(ShipperAgent agent) {

        shipperAgent = agent; // valorizes the agent

        setTitle("Shipper Agent: "+agent.getLocalName()+" GUI");

        // graphic bla bla...

        // Park Table and Available Table:
        parkTable = new VehicleTable(parkModel);
            // bla bla...
        availablesTable = new VehicleTable(availablesModel);
            // bla bla...

        // JButtons: add/remove vehicle in Park Table and Available Table
        btnPM_plus = new JButton();
            btnPM_plus.setToolTipText("Add vehicle");
            btnPM_plus.setIcon(...);
            btnPM_plus.setActionCommand("+park");
            btnPM_plus.addActionListener(this);

        // similar things for other three buttons:
        // remove from parkTable, add and remove from availablesTable

        //bla bla...

        // Data from agent:
        Vector<Vehicle> veicoli = shipperAgent.getVehicles();
        Iterator<Vehicle> I = veicoli.iterator();
        while (I.hasNext()){
            addVehicle(parkCoordinator, I.next());
        }

        showGui();
    }

The whole matter starts at TableModel implementation, so let's take a look to it:

public class VehicleTableModel extends AbstractTableModel {

    private ArrayList<Vehicle> vehicles;

    // Most of your code here, didn't examine it closer though

    public void addRow(Vehicle vehicle) {
        int rowIndex = vehicles.size();
        vehicles.add(vehicle);
        fireTableRowsInserted(rowIndex, rowIndex); // just notify last row == vehicles.size() == getRowCount()
    }

    public void removeRow(int row) {
        vehicles.remove(row);
        fireTableRowsDeleted(row, row); // is right? yes, it looks ok.
    }

    @Override
    public void setValueAt(Object value, int row, int col) {
        Vehicle v = vehicles.get(row);
        if (v != null) {
            COLUMNS column = header[col];
            switch (column) {
                case TARGA_COLUMN:...; break;
                case MARCA_COLUMN:...; break;
                // others...
            }
            fireTableCellUpdated(row, column); // this is the appropriate fire method.
        }
    }

    /**
     * Convenience method to notify if a vehicle was updated in 
     * the outside, not through setValueAt(...).
     */
    public void notifyVehicleUpdated(Vehicle vehicle) {
        Vehicle[] elements = (Vehicles[])vehicles.toArray();
        for (int i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) {
            if (elements[i] == vehicle) {
                fireTableRowsUpdated(i, i);
            }
        }
    }

}

Some other hints:

  • Never use repaint() nor updateUI() to refresh table's data. It's table model responsibility to notify the view about the right event.

  • Never use fireTableDataChanged() (as someone suggested) unless the whole table model data has changed. There are appropriate fireXxxx() methods for rows, columns and cells changes.

  • As far as I understand the problem, both tables share the vehicles list and thus you have to keep them in synch. If so, I'm wondering why do you need two different table models? If the only reason is the status available/parked (mutually exclusive) then you can have a single table model shared along two tables and apply different filters accordingly to the vehicle's status. On status field update, both tables will be notified and vehicle will be transferred from one table to another.

Update

Some time ago in a comment to this answer the idea of adding a method such as notifyRowUpdated() to Coordinator abstract class seemed to be appropriated to solve the synchronization matter between both tables.

But now I think the best approach is sharing the same table model along with the two tables and filtering the second table based on vehicle's status: if available (DISPONIBILE) then show it, if not then hide it.

This way on both row update and row delete both tables will be notified and will act accordingly. On cell update we can add a TableModelListener to the model that applies a filter on second table, showing available vehicles and hidding non available ones. Not to mention that Coordinator abstract class will remain simple and keep its original purpose: notify the third-party agent on row updates/deletes.

So please take a look to the code example below (sorry for the extension). Some notes:

  • I have emulated your Vehicle class with a simpler one. Status is defined by available a boolean property.
  • DataObjectTableModel code is available in tablemodel tag wiki and I've used this class to emulate your table model.
  • Because I don't have any Coordinator class I add/remove rows directly on the table model, but you should do that hrough the appropriate coordinator.
  • Don't know why we have to re-apply filters on table cell update events. As far as I understand the table row sorter should be notified and automatically apply filters. However it doesn't work in this way and we have to manually re-apply fitlers. Minor problem though.
