TableColumn back to summary

TableColumn	back to summary
public TableColumn(int modelIndex, int width) Cover method, using a `null` renderer and a `null` editor. Parameters modelIndex:int the index of the column in the model that supplies the data for this column in the table; the model index remains the same even when columns are reordered in the view width:int this column's preferred width and initial width See Also `TableColumn(int, int, TableCellRenderer, TableCellEditor)`

TableColumn back to summary

TableColumn	back to summary
public TableColumn(int modelIndex, int width, TableCellRenderer cellRenderer, TableCellEditor cellEditor) Creates and initializes an instance of `TableColumn` with the specified model index, width, cell renderer, and cell editor; all `TableColumn` constructors delegate to this one. The value of `width` is used for both the initial and preferred width; if `width` is negative, they're set to 0. The minimum width is set to 15 unless the initial width is less, in which case the minimum width is set to the initial width. When the `cellRenderer` or `cellEditor` parameter is `null`, a default value provided by the `JTable` `getDefaultRenderer` or `getDefaultEditor` method, respectively, is used to provide defaults based on the type of the data in this column. This column-centric rendering strategy can be circumvented by overriding the `getCellRenderer` methods in `JTable`. Parameters modelIndex:int the index of the column in the model that supplies the data for this column in the table; the model index remains the same even when columns are reordered in the view width:int this column's preferred width and initial width cellRenderer:TableCellRenderer the object used to render values in this column cellEditor:TableCellEditor the object used to edit values in this column See Also `getMinWidth()`, `JTable#getDefaultRenderer(Class)`, `JTable#getDefaultEditor(Class)`, `JTable#getCellRenderer(int, int)`, `JTable#getCellEditor(int, int)`

public TableColumn(int modelIndex, int width, TableCellRenderer cellRenderer, TableCellEditor cellEditor)

The value of width is used for both the initial and preferred width; if width is negative, they're set to 0. The minimum width is set to 15 unless the initial width is less, in which case the minimum width is set to the initial width.

When the cellRenderer or cellEditor parameter is null, a default value provided by the JTable getDefaultRenderer or getDefaultEditor method, respectively, is used to provide defaults based on the type of the data in this column. This column-centric rendering strategy can be circumvented by overriding the getCellRenderer methods in JTable.

Parameters

modelIndex:int: the index of the column in the model that supplies the data for this column in the table; the model index remains the same even when columns are reordered in the view
width:int: this column's preferred width and initial width
cellRenderer:TableCellRenderer: the object used to render values in this column
cellEditor:TableCellEditor: the object used to edit values in this column

modelIndex:int: the new modelIndex

Annotations

@BeanProperty

setPreferredWidth back to summary

public void setPreferredWidth(int preferredWidth)

Sets this column's preferred width to preferredWidth. If preferredWidth exceeds the minimum or maximum width, it is adjusted to the appropriate limiting value.

For details on how the widths of columns in the JTable (and JTableHeader) are calculated from the preferredWidth, see the doLayout method in JTable.

See Also

getResizable

setWidth back to summary

public void setWidth(int width)

This method should not be used to set the widths of columns in the JTable, use setPreferredWidth instead. Like a layout manager in the AWT, the JTable adjusts a column's width automatically whenever the table itself changes size, or a column's preferred width is changed. Setting widths programmatically therefore has no long term effect.

This method sets this column's width to width. If width exceeds the minimum or maximum width, it is adjusted to the appropriate limiting value.

Parameters

width:int: the new width

Annotations

@BeanProperty
description:The width of the column.

sizeWidthToFit back to summary

public void sizeWidthToFit()

Resizes the TableColumn to fit the width of its header cell. This method does nothing if the header renderer is null (the default case). Otherwise, it sets the minimum, maximum and preferred widths of this column to the widths of the minimum, maximum and preferred sizes of the Component delivered by the header renderer. The transient "width" property of this TableColumn is also set to the preferred width. Note this method is not used internally by the table package.
