JList selection problems

Question

I'm having problems with JList selection - it's really wierd.
I have a Jlist and on different selections I want to do stuff - well, I do see the GUI line get highlighted but everytime my ListSelectionListener is called the selected index stays 0.
also, it always calls the ListSelectionListener twice for every selection I make.
here's how my code looks:
(typesList is my JList)
typesList.setSelectedIndex(0);
typesList.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
typesList.getSelectionModel().addListSelectionListener(new ListSelectionListener() {
      public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) {       
        int newSelection = typesList.getSelectedIndex(); //this returns always 0!        ...
      }

Look at the line getValueIsAdjusting... (only one selection is processed. And, this code works and provides proper index.
    * Method to load all Tables from Database user
    public void loadTables() {
        // run Database request
        tableListModel = getListModelData("select object_name from user_objects where object_type = 'TABLE'");
        // now plug List with Model
        tableList = new JList(tableListModel);
        tableList.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
        tableList.setSelectedIndex(0);
        //tableList.addListSelectionListener(this);
        tableList.addListSelectionListener(
            new ListSelectionListener() {
                public void valueChanged( ListSelectionEvent e )
                    if(e.getValueIsAdjusting()) return;
                    String tablename = tableList.getSelectedValue().toString();
                    showColumnData(tablename);
                    displayAllTableData(tablename); //intensive (reworking)
        jScrollPane1.add(tableList);
        jScrollPane1.setViewportView(tableList);
        showColumnData(tableList.getSelectedValue().toString());
