public class DefaultTableModel
extends AbstractTableModel
implements Serializable

This is an implementation of TableModel that uses a Vector of Vectors to store the cell value objects.

Note:
The DefaultTableModel's API contains the methods addColumn(), removeColumn(), but not methods to insert a column at an index nor methods to move the columns. This is because JTable does not display the columns based on the order of the columns in this model. So rearranging them here doesn't do much. See the column ordering methods in TableColumnModel.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. A future release of Swing will provide support for long term persistence.

DefaultTableModel

public DefaultTableModel()
Constructs a default DefaultTableModel which is a table of zero columns and zero rows.

DefaultTableModel

public DefaultTableModel(int numRows,
                         int numColumns)
Constructs a DefaultTableModel with numRows and numColumns of null object values.
Parameters:
numRows - The number of rows the table holds
numColumns - The number of columns the table holds
See Also:
setValueAt(java.lang.Object, int, int)

DefaultTableModel

public DefaultTableModel(Vector columnNames,
                         int numRows)
Constructs a DefaultTableModel with as many columns as there are elements in columnNames and numRows of null object values. Each column's name will be taken from the columnNames vector.
Parameters:
columnNames - Vector containing the names of the new columns. If this null then the model has no columns
numRows - The number of rows the table holds
See Also:
setDataVector(java.util.Vector, java.util.Vector), setValueAt(java.lang.Object, int, int)

DefaultTableModel

public DefaultTableModel(Object[] columnNames,
                         int numRows)
Constructs a DefaultTableModel with as many columns as there are elements in columnNames and numRows of null object values. Each column's name will be taken from the columnNames array.
Parameters:
columnNames - Array containing the names of the new columns. If this null then the model has no columns
numRows - The number of rows the table holds
See Also:
setDataVector(java.util.Vector, java.util.Vector), setValueAt(java.lang.Object, int, int)

DefaultTableModel

public DefaultTableModel(Vector data,
                         Vector columnNames)
Constructs a DefaultTableModel and initializes the table by passing data and columnNames to the setDataVector() method.
Parameters:
data - The data of the table
columnNames - Vector containing the names of the new columns.
See Also:
getDataVector(), setDataVector(java.util.Vector, java.util.Vector)

DefaultTableModel

public DefaultTableModel(Object[][] data,
                         Object[] columnNames)
Constructs a DefaultTableModel and initializes the table by passing data and columnNames to the setDataVector() method. The first index in the Object[][] is the row index and the second is the column index.
Parameters:
data - The data of the table
columnNames - The names of the columns.
See Also:
getDataVector(), setDataVector(java.util.Vector, java.util.Vector)
Method Detail

getDataVector

public Vector getDataVector()
This returns the Vector of Vectors that contains the table's data values. The vectors contained in the outer vector are each a single row of values. In other words, to get to the cell at row 1, column 5

((Vector)getDataVector().elementAt(1)).elementAt(5);

You can directly alter the returned Vector. You can change the cell values, the number of rows. If you need to alter the number of columns in the model, you can do so with addColumn(), removeColumn(), or the setDataVector() methods. Once you have finished modifying the dataVector, you must inform the model of the new data using one of the notification methods. The notification methods will generate the appropriate TableModelListener messages to notify the JTable and any other listeners of this model.

See Also:
newDataAvailable(javax.swing.event.TableModelEvent), newRowsAdded(javax.swing.event.TableModelEvent), setDataVector(java.util.Vector, java.util.Vector)

setDataVector

public void setDataVector(Vector newData,
                          Vector columnNames)
This replaces the current dataVector instance variable with the new Vector of rows, newData. columnNames are the names of the new columns. The first name in columnNames is mapped to column 0 in newData. Each row in newData is adjusted to match the number of columns in columnNames either by truncating the Vector if it is too long, or adding null values if it is too short.

Parameters:
newData - The new data vector
columnNames - The names of the columns
See Also:
newDataAvailable(javax.swing.event.TableModelEvent), getDataVector()

setDataVector

public void setDataVector(Object[][] newData,
                          Object[] columnNames)
This replaces the value in the dataVector instance variable with the values in the array newData. The first index in the Object[][] array is the row index and the second is the column index. columnNames are the names of the new columns.
See Also:
setDataVector(Vector, Vector)

newDataAvailable

public void newDataAvailable(TableModelEvent event)
Equivalent to fireTableChanged.

newRowsAdded

public void newRowsAdded(TableModelEvent event)
This method will make sure the new rows have the correct number of columns. It does so using the setSize method in Vector which truncates Vectors which are too long, and appends nulls if they are too short. This method also sends out a tableChanged() notification message to all the listeners.
See Also:
getDataVector()

rowsRemoved

public void rowsRemoved(TableModelEvent event)
Equivalent to fireTableChanged().

setColumnIdentifiers

public void setColumnIdentifiers(Vector newIdentifiers)
Replaces the column identifiers in the model.
Parameters:
newIdentifiers - Vector of column identifiers. A null means setting the model to zero columns
See Also:
setNumRows(int)

setColumnIdentifiers

public void setColumnIdentifiers(Object[] newIdentifiers)
Replaces the column identifiers in the model. If the number of newIdentifiers is greater than the current numColumns, new columns are added to the end of each row in the model. If the number of newIdentifier is less than the current number of columns, all the extra columns at the end of a row are discarded.

Parameters:
newIdentifiers - Array of column identifiers. A null means setting the model to zero columns
See Also:
setNumRows(int)

setNumRows

public void setNumRows(int newSize)
Sets the number of rows in the model. If the new size is greater than the current size, new rows are added to the end of the model If the new size is less than the current size, all rows at index newSize and greater are discarded.

Parameters:
newSize - the new number of rows
See Also:
setColumnIdentifiers(java.util.Vector)

addColumn

public void addColumn(Object columnName)
Add a column to the model. The new column will have the idenitifier columnName. This method will send a tableChanged() notification message to all the listeners. This method is a cover for addColumn(Object, Vector) which uses null as the data vector.
Parameters:
columnName - the identifier of the column being added
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if columnName is null

addColumn

public void addColumn(Object columnName,
                      Vector columnData)

Otherwise, the new data will be added to model starting with the first element going to row 0, etc. This method will send a tableChanged() notification message to all the listeners.
Parameters:
columnName - the identifier of the column being added
columnData - optional data of the column being added
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if columnName is null

addColumn
