JTable Speed
I have a speed issue with a JTable. It has a column consisting of a JComboBox with a JTextField as an editor that acts as an interactive search. The JComboBox has about 30,000 entries in it (I know that�s too many). The problem is two fold. The first is getting focus. When clicking on the JComboBox it takes about two or three seconds for the JTextBox to get the focus and allow me to begin editing. The second problem is when selecting an item in the JComoBox. This takes about 3 or 4 seconds for the selection to actually show up in the JTextBox.
I am sure it is something in the table because I can use the same JComboBox with the same JTextField with the same data outside the table and it works fine. In fact I�ve even increased the items in the JComboBox to over 150,000 and the speed is still acceptable. It appears the JTable is causing the problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Lah-di-dah, look at all those SWT snobs :-)
JTable doesn't have any methods to turn off
repainting (Component has setIgnoreRepaint, but I
think it only applies to OS-level paint messages.)
I aggree with the last post: create a new model
(either passing it all the data or filling it up
after creation), and when the model is complete,
then call setModel:
Vector data = new Vector();
//fill data with row vectors
TableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(data,
columnNames);
table.setData(data);
thank you : i found your reply the most interesting . i will try this method which i suppose will solve my problem.
Design concerns: Speaking just for myself, I don't
want to stare at a table with 2,000 rows! How about
adding search constraints or paging?can you explain me further this design proposition : it seems also interesting feature to add to my application.
Thanks also to all repliers to my post for their interesting Ideas.

Create a JTable based on an ArrayList containing instances of a class.
I have a class, IncomeBudgetItem, instances of which are contained in an ArrayList. I would like to create a JTable, based on this ArrayList. One variable is a string, while others are type double. Not all variables are to appear in the JTable.
The internal logic of my program is already working. And my GUI is largely constructed. I'm just not sure how to make them talk to each other. The actually creation of the JTable is my biggest problem right now.import java.awt.Dimension;

JTable displays string in wrong order : my code problem or Java problem ?
I have the following code that displays data in a JTable, most of the time it works fine, but I've realized when I have a cell with values like : "Snowboarding"+"[123456789]"
It would display it as : [Snowboarding[123456789
For a string like : "Chasing toddlers"+"<123456789>"
It would display it as : <Chasing toddlers<123456789
It not only moved the last bracket to the front, but also changed its direction from "]" to "[" and from ">" to "<"
Is there anything wrong with my code ? Or is this a Java problem ?

* TableSorter is a decorator for TableModels; adding sorting functionality to a supplied TableModel. TableSorter does not store
* or copy the data in its TableModel; instead it maintains a map from the row indexes of the view to the row indexes of the
* model. As requests are made of the sorter (like getValueAt(row, col)) they are passed to the underlying model after the row numbers
* have been translated via the internal mapping array. This way, the TableSorter appears to hold another copy of the table
* with the rows in a different order.
* <p/>
* TableSorter registers itself as a listener to the underlying model, just as the JTable itself would. Events recieved from the model
* are examined, sometimes manipulated (typically widened), and then passed on to the TableSorter's listeners (typically the JTable).
* If a change to the model has invalidated the order of TableSorter's rows, a note of this is made and the sorter will resort the
* rows the next time a value is requested.
* <p/>
* When the tableHeader property is set, either by using the setTableHeader() method or the two argument constructor, the table
* header may be used as a complete UI for TableSorter. The default renderer of the tableHeader is decorated with a renderer
* that indicates the sorting status of each column. In addition, a mouse listener is installed with the following behavior:
* <ul>
* <li>
* Mouse-click: Clears the sorting status of all other columns and advances the sorting status of that column through three
* values: {NOT_SORTED, ASCENDING, DESCENDING} (then back to NOT_SORTED again).
* <li>
* SHIFT-mouse-click: Clears the sorting status of all other columns and cycles the sorting status of the column through the same
* three values, in the opposite order: {NOT_SORTED, DESCENDING, ASCENDING}.
* <li>
* CONTROL-mouse-click and CONTROL-SHIFT-mouse-click: as above except that the changes to the column do not cancel the statuses of columns
* that are already sorting - giving a way to initiate a compound sort.
* </ul>
* <p/>
* This is a long overdue rewrite of a class of the same name that first appeared in the swing table demos in 1997.

* TableSorter is a decorator for TableModels; adding sorting functionality to a supplied TableModel. TableSorter does not store
* or copy the data in its TableModel; instead it maintains a map from the row indexes of the view to the row indexes of the
* model. As requests are made of the sorter (like getValueAt(row, col)) they are passed to the underlying model after the row numbers
* have been translated via the internal mapping array. This way, the TableSorter appears to hold another copy of the table
* with the rows in a different order.
* <p/>
* TableSorter registers itself as a listener to the underlying model, just as the JTable itself would. Events recieved from the model
* are examined, sometimes manipulated (typically widened), and then passed on to the TableSorter's listeners (typically the JTable).
* If a change to the model has invalidated the order of TableSorter's rows, a note of this is made and the sorter will resort the
* rows the next time a value is requested.
* <p/>
* When the tableHeader property is set, either by using the setTableHeader() method or the two argument constructor, the table
* header may be used as a complete UI for TableSorter. The default renderer of the tableHeader is decorated with a renderer
* that indicates the sorting status of each column. In addition, a mouse listener is installed with the following behavior:
* <ul>
* <li>
* Mouse-click: Clears the sorting status of all other columns and advances the sorting status of that column through three
* values: {NOT_SORTED, ASCENDING, DESCENDING} (then back to NOT_SORTED again).
* <li>
* SHIFT-mouse-click: Clears the sorting status of all other columns and cycles the sorting status of the column through the same
* three values, in the opposite order: {NOT_SORTED, DESCENDING, ASCENDING}.
* <li>
* CONTROL-mouse-click and CONTROL-SHIFT-mouse-click: as above except that the changes to the column do not cancel the statuses of columns
* that are already sorting - giving a way to initiate a compound sort.
* </ul>
* <p/>
* This is a long overdue rewrite of a class of the same name that first appeared in the swing table demos in 1997.

Sorting the Rows in a JTable Component Based on a Column
Hi Masters..would like to have your valuable help and suggestion..i am using jdk1.4.i have jtbale and would like to have one column data in sorted way...
just i am enclosing my code in tha i am using Collections.sort(data, new ColumnSorter(colIndex, ascending)); but that compare of that comparator is not at woring that data is not getting soretd.
here data is the jtable complete data.

Two JTables using the same RowSorter

import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;
public class Testing
public static void main(String args[])
JFrame frame = new JFrame("SplitPaneTest");
String[] columnNames =
{"First Name", "Last Name", "Sport", "# of Years", "Vegetarian", "#", "A Number"};
Object[][] data =
{{"Mary", "Campione", "Snowboarding", new Integer(5), new Boolean(false), "1", new Float(37.1)},
{"Alison", "Huml", "Rowing", new Integer(3), new Boolean(true), "2", new Float(324.76)},
{"Kathy", "Walrath", "Knitting", new Integer(2), new Boolean(false), "4", new Float(6)},
{"Sharon", "Zakhour", "Speed reading", new Integer(20), new Boolean(true), "3", new Float(4567)},
{"Philip", "Milne", "Pool", new Integer(10), new Boolean(false), "5", new Float(1337)},};
DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(data, columnNames);
JTable leftTable = new JTable(model);
JTable rightTable = new JTable(model);
leftTable.removeColumn(leftTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(6));
leftTable.removeColumn(leftTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(5));
rightTable.removeColumn(rightTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(4));
rightTable.removeColumn(rightTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(3));
rightTable.removeColumn(rightTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(2));

rightTable.setAutoCreateRowSorter(true);
JScrollPane leftScrollPane = new JScrollPane(leftTable);
JScrollPane rightScrollPane = new JScrollPane(rightTable);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(1, 2));
frame.add(leftScrollPane);
frame.add(rightScrollPane);
frame.setVisible(true);
frame.pack();
}Basically what I want to do is when the user sorts either one of the tables, I want the adjacent table to sort as well according to the column of the clicked table. Also, on an unrelated note, does anyone know of a more efficient means of setting the models of the table so I don't have to remove the unwanted columns:
leftTable.removeColumn(leftTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(6));
leftTable.removeColumn(leftTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(5));
rightTable.removeColumn(rightTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(4));
rightTable.removeColumn(rightTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(3));
rightTable.removeColumn(rightTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(2));
rightTable.removeColumn(rightTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(1));
rightTable.removeColumn(rightTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(0));Thank you for your time,
BrandonThanks for the comment and the link. It seemed to work with OP's SSCCE when I tested it, maybe there isn't a problem when both tables also share the same TableModel?

Cannot display JLabel text in JTable
Hi, This is a simple but frustrating little problem
I am having trouble displaying the label text in a column of a JTable.
I have hacked up a copy of TableDialogEditDemo.java from the tutorials
on using JTables. This uses a renderer and editor models to deal with a
column of colors.
I have changed it to use JLabels instead. What want is for the label
text to appear and when the user selects the cell be allowed to launch
a dialog box (such as the demo program does with colorchooser).
The dialog launching funcionalty works fine but the label text does not display.
I end up with the column of JLabels as blank, even though the values
are properly set. It seems like the TableCellRenderer doesn't display the
controls text.
I've spent the better part of two work days trying to get this one to work.
Compiling and just running the code (without any interaction with the table)
shows the problem. The second column of items will be blank instead of
cells with text.
Help!
Thanks!

Just didn't realize I needed to set the text of the component but with your
tip and thinking about it, it makes sense.
Actually I needed to use:
setText(t_label.getText());
Using toString got me: "java.swing......" (the components text representation)
Thanks a bunch!

How can i make perticular row or perticular cell Editable of a JTable
Dear al,
can u help me by guiding me for the problem of...
i am having a JTable, in which a (first)column of each row is having a checkbox field.
If the checkbox is checked then and then i should able to modify the cells in that row where the checkbox is.
I have created the table with AbstractTableModel of which the isCellEditable(int row, int col) method is overwriten. Whatever return value (true/false) reflects the perticular
cells becomes editable/non-editable respectively.
but at run time...(mean the table is created now) and now i want to make the cells editable/non-editable depending on the checkbox value...
how can i implement it.........
please suggest.........
thank you.........here is the sample code from tutorial.......

Different JCombobox items in JTable for the same column
Hello Everyone,
I am reading from a file and displaying in a JTable. I want all cells in a specific column to be JComboBoxes but the items in the JComboBox differ from one cell to another, how can this be achieved?
The following is a snippet from the Sun tutorials,
JComboBox comboBox = new JComboBox();
comboBox.addItem("Snowboarding");
comboBox.addItem("Rowing");
comboBox.addItem("Knitting");
comboBox.addItem("Speed reading");
comboBox.addItem("Pool");
comboBox.addItem("None of the above");
sportColumn.setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(comboBox));
And hence every cell in the sportColumn has the exact same set of options in the JComboBox which is not what I want since I read from an external file.
Any help or sample code would be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advanceOverride getCellEditor(int row, int column) in JTable to control which editor gets used for which cell.

JTable - isEditing does not work in Java 1.4
I just upgraded jdk1.1.8 with swing 1.1.1 to Java1.4. The isEditing method doesn't work on Java1.4. When I edit a cell in the JTable and click a button , the value of the last edited cell is lost. I was able to catch the edited value by calling isEditing in jdk1.1.8 but Java 1.4 does not detect that the cell was edited. Is this a bug? Has anyone experience this problem? Is there a work around solution? Please help!!!
Hi,
Below is the code that I modified from a sample code in Java Tutorial. I added an OK button. The isEditing method does not trap the edit the first time but does on the second edit in JDK1.4. However, it works in JDK1.1.8. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? I desperately have to solve this problem to upgrade to JDK1.4. Thank-you for your help! I really appreciate it!

Combo Box in a JTable not appearing
Hi Swing,
I have a snippet of code that I took from the Swing guide for JTables that adds a JComboBox into the 3rd column in the table. However, the ComboBox doesnt appear?
Can anyone see what is going wrong? Code is below:- I can post more if needed:-
public void addTable() {
tableModel = new MyTableModel(rows,columns);
relationTable = new JTable(tableModel);
//Set up the editor for the sport cells.
TableColumn sportColumn = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(2);
JComboBox allStaff = new JComboBox();
allStaff.addItem("Snowboarding");
allStaff.addItem("Rowing");
allStaff.addItem("Knitting");
allStaff.addItem("Speed reading");
allStaff.addItem("Pool");
allStaff.addItem("None of the above");
sportColumn.setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(allStaff));
// set so only one row can be selected at once
relationTable.setAutoResizeMode( JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF );
relationTable.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
// add to pane:-
JScrollPane scrollPane3 = new JScrollPane(relationTable);
scrollPane3.setBounds(X,Y,Z,W);
getContentPane().add(scrollPane3 );
}Cheershi
look I will give u a simple code I created based on your combo box
enjoy (:

I did this:

That works but I want to see the whole table at once. Is there something I can do to do that? -
JCheckBox wont receive initial focus in JTable under 1.6
If I have a JCheckBox in a JTable, clicking the checkbox has no effect unless the table already has focus. This is new to 1.6 I believe.
The code example below should illustrate the problem. With focus on the JTextField at the top, try to click a checkbox in the table. It won't take respond. If you click another field in the table first, the checkbox will then begin responding. Two strange things I've noticed with it are.
1) removing the call the table.putClientProperty("terminateEditOnFocusLost", Boolean.TRUE); makes it work correctly. Of course then it won't give up focus correctly.
2) My example has the JTable within a JInternalFrame. If the table is just in a JFrame, the problem disappears. You can commment/uncomment these two lines to see the difference:
initInteralFrame(panel);
//initNoInteralFrame(panel);
I'm very surprised nobody else has noticed this, but I didn't see any postings or bugs on it. Can anyone see something I am doing wrong or find a workaround?
I submitted this bug a while back which is probably related, but this case with the checkbox is a bit less obscure:

}It appears to me that the first click is "selecting"
the internal frame to make it active and therefore
have focus.Under 1.5, that appears to be the behavior. Under 1.6 the focus starts out in the internal frame on the JTextField above the JTable. You can click into any field in the table from there fine, but you can't transfer focus from the JTextField outside the table to the JCheckbox in the table... no matter how many clicks. The checkbox only works after the table becomes focused by clicking on one of the other fields or tabbing into the table. -
JTable Awt -Event Queue problem
Hi
I've been looking everywhere for a solution to this, but can't seem to find one. I've got a JTable with an underlying model that is being continuously updated (every 100ms or so). Whenever I try to sort the JTable using TableRowSorter while the model is being added to I get
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -1
at java.util.Vector.elementAt(Vector.java:430)
at javax.swing.table.DefaultTableColumnModel.getColumn(DefaultTableColumnModel.java:277)
I don't understand this as in my custom table model I've added the fireTableChanged etc. in a SwingUtilities.invokeLater( ...) thread.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and found a solution? I'd be really grateful!
ThanksHi
Thanks for responding, I'm still a little confused. I've posted the code below for both the JTable and the TableModel. The tablemodel simply gets values from a vector which is being dynamically updated from outside the table - but whenever the vector is added to
The problem seems to only occur when I press the column header to sort the tables during the updates. My understanding is that the method refresh() should create a threadsafe update of the table - but somehow it refreshes the binding to the tablemodel and during this time the table returns a defaulttablemodel that doesn't correspond to the actual underlying data....I thought this kind of problem would be solved by invoking all updates on the swing event thread, but it seems to still produce the effect and I'm stumped!!
(The data is in an array called turns, and the addElement() in another class calls the refresh() method)
many thanks, in the hope that someone has the kindness and and benevolence to wade through the following code!

Scrollbar problem with JTable.
Hi,
I have 45 columns in a JTable. Please remember this is customize, we can change the number of columns dynamically, at max they can be 2 columns.
i was having a problem with display the columns names in my Frame. I posted at http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5167358&messageID=9641265#9641265
I got the solution. Thanks for that.
But as i said these columns are customized.
when i am having 2 columns in my JTable, table.setAutoResizeMode( JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF ); is behaving differently, it's not occupying the complete JFrame. Lots of space is left out beside these 2 columns.
When i comment this line, then those 2 columns are occupying my complete Frame.
these two colmns should occupy my complete Frame and if i select 45 columns i should get scroll bar at botton with complete column NAMES.
Hope i am clear.

}Thank You camickr, it's serving my purpose.
Just for a clarrification :
table.setAutoResizeMode( JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF );
table.setAutoscrolls(false);without using these lines also my purpose is serving.....then y do we need above two lines of code. r they necessary
i mean, this snippet is sufficient.

JTable with ScrollPane update problem
hay i have a table and scrollpane is used as a container, at runtime i create new object of table and assign it to the scrollpane, but its still showing the old table,
I also tried to
updateUI();
repaint();
but it still showing the same old table,
I also debug and saw that the new table has been created n successfuly displaying the values at command prompt.
Can any one know whats wrong in it.Dont be ferious budy, now this is a working example....
Problem is: I am changing the table object in jPanel2 but still jPanel2 is showing the same old table, I think there is a refresh kind of a problem
Be kool dude n tell where is the problem.
