public class DefaultTableColumnModel

extends Object

implements TableColumnModel, PropertyChangeListener, ListSelectionListener, Serializable

The standard column-handler for a JTable.

Method Detail

addColumn

public void addColumn(TableColumn aColumn)

Appends aColumn to the end of the tableColumns array. This method also posts the columnAdded event to its listeners.

Specified by:

addColumn in interface TableColumnModel

See Also:

removeColumn(javax.swing.table.TableColumn)

removeColumn

public void removeColumn(TableColumn column)

Deletes the column from the tableColumns array. This method will do nothing if column is not in the table's columns list. tile is called to resize both the header and table views. This method also posts a columnRemoved event to its listeners.

Specified by:

removeColumn in interface TableColumnModel
