public class JTable

extends JComponent

implements TableModelListener, Scrollable, TableColumnModelListener, ListSelectionListener, CellEditorListener

The most simple tables can be set up with a few quick lines of code. For example to set up an empty table with 4 columns and 10 rows:

JTable table = new JTable(); table.setAutoCreateColumnsFromModel(false); table.addColumn("First Name", 100, null, new DefaultCellEditor(new JTextField(""))); table.addColumn("Last Name", 100, null, new DefaultCellEditor(new JTextField(""))); table.addColumn("Vegetarian", 140, new DefaultCellRenderer(new JCheckBox()), new DefaultCellEditor(new JCheckBox())); table.addColumn("Birthday", 120); table.setNumRows(10);

Note: JSimpleTable assumes its model is a DefaultTableModel. If the model of the JSimpleTable is changed to another model class, most of the methods here will do nothing.

Parameters:

columnIdentifier - the unique object identifier of the column

columnData - optional data of the column being added

Parameters:

columnIdentifier - The unique identifier of the new column

width - The new column's width. Or -1 to use the default width

renderer - The renderer used with the new column. Or null to use the default renderer.

editor - The editor used with the new column. Or null to use the default editor.

columnData - optional data of the column being added

Returns:

the rectangle containing the cell at index column,row

Throws: IllegalArgumentException

 public void sizeColumnsToFit(boolean lastColumnOnly)

This method will resize one or more columns of the table so that the sum width of all columns will equal to the width of the table. If lastColumnOnly is true, then it will try to resize the last column only to make it fit, but if it runs into either the minimum size limit of the column or maximum size limit, then it will change the next to last column also, etc. If lastColumnOnly is false, then it will spread the size delta proportionately to all the columns, while respecting each column's max and min size limits. Also, notifications of each column width change will be sent out as they are resized.

Note: It is possible that even after this method is called, the total width of the columns is still not be equal to the width of the table. eg. A table with a single column, the column has a minimum width of 20, and the tableView has a width of 10. And there is nothing I can do about that.

Parameters:

lastColumnOnly - Try to change the last column only if true
