Using JSlider as table component

Question

Ive been having some problems using JSlider in tables... Ive written several cell editors and renderers but this is the only one that gives me problems. Here is simplified code that i think should work but doesn't:
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.JSlider;
import javax.swing.table.TableColumn;
import javax.swing.table.TableCellRenderer;
import javax.swing.table.AbstractTableModel;
import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import java.awt.Component;
import java.awt.event.WindowEvent;
import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter;
* A main frame with a table in it... wish it had sliders...
public class TestSliderTable extends JFrame
    /** Creates new TestSliderTable */
    public TestSliderTable()
        addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
            public void windowClosing()
                System.exit(0);
        setUpTable();
    private void setUpTable()
        JTable table = new JTable(new SomeDumbTableModel())
            public TableCellRenderer getCellRenderer(int row, int column)
                return new JSliderTableCellRenderer();
        JPanel panel = new JPanel();
        panel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
        panel.add(table);
        setContentPane(panel);
        pack();
    public static void main(String[] args)
        TestSliderTable frame = new TestSliderTable();
        frame.setVisible(true);
* A simple cell renderer that should render sliders...
class JSliderTableCellRenderer extends JSlider
    implements TableCellRenderer
    /** Creates new JSliderTableCellRenderer */
    public JSliderTableCellRenderer()
        super(0, 10, 5);
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value,
                                                    boolean p3, boolean p4,
                                                    int row, int column)
        int newValue = ((Integer)value).intValue();
        setValue(newValue);
        return this;
* a simple table model with Integers as values...
class SomeDumbTableModel extends AbstractTableModel
    public SomeDumbTableModel() { }
    public int getRowCount() { return 10; }
    public int getColumnCount() { return 1; }
    public Object getValueAt(int row, int column) { return new Integer(row); }
}Anyone have similar problems or know anyway around this?
