Interface TableColumnModel
- All Known Implementing Classes:
- DefaultTableColumnModel
public interface TableColumnModel
Defines the requirements for a table column model object suitable for
use with JTable.
- See Also:
DefaultTableColumnModel
addColumn
void addColumn(TableColumn aColumn)
- Appends
aColumn to the end of the
tableColumns array.
This method posts a columnAdded
event to its listeners.
- Parameters:
aColumn - the TableColumn to be added- See Also:
removeColumn(javax.swing.table.TableColumn)
removeColumn
void removeColumn(TableColumn column)
- Deletes the
TableColumn column from the
tableColumns array. This method will do nothing if
column is not in the table's column list.
This method posts a columnRemoved
event to its listeners.
- Parameters:
column - the TableColumn to be removed- See Also:
addColumn(javax.swing.table.TableColumn)
moveColumn
void moveColumn(int columnIndex,
int newIndex)
- Moves the column and its header at
columnIndex to
newIndex. The old column at columnIndex
will now be found at newIndex. The column that used
to be at newIndex is shifted left or right
to make room. This will not move any columns if
columnIndex equals newIndex. This method
posts a columnMoved event to its listeners.
- Parameters:
columnIndex - the index of column to be movednewIndex - index of the column's new location
- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if columnIndex or
newIndex
are not in the valid range
setColumnMargin
void setColumnMargin(int newMargin)
- Sets the
TableColumn's column margin to
newMargin. This method posts
a columnMarginChanged event to its listeners.
- Parameters:
newMargin - the width, in pixels, of the new column margins- See Also:
getColumnMargin()
getColumnCount
int getColumnCount()
- Returns the number of columns in the model.
- Returns:
- the number of columns in the model
getColumns
Enumeration<TableColumn> getColumns()
- Returns an
Enumeration of all the columns in the model.
- Returns:
- an
Enumeration of all the columns in the model
getColumnIndex
int getColumnIndex(Object columnIdentifier)
- Returns the index of the first column in the table
whose identifier is equal to
identifier,
when compared using equals.
- Parameters:
columnIdentifier - the identifier object
- Returns:
- the index of the first table column
whose identifier is equal to
identifier
- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if identifier
is null, or no
TableColumn has this
identifier- See Also:
getColumn(int)
getColumn
TableColumn getColumn(int columnIndex)
- Returns the
TableColumn object for the column at
columnIndex.
- Parameters:
columnIndex - the index of the desired column
- Returns:
- the
TableColumn object for
the column at columnIndex
getColumnMargin
int getColumnMargin()
- Returns the width between the cells in each column.
- Returns:
- the margin, in pixels, between the cells
getColumnIndexAtX
int getColumnIndexAtX(int xPosition)
- Returns the index of the column that lies on the
horizontal point,
xPosition;
or -1 if it lies outside the any of the column's bounds.
In keeping with Swing's separable model architecture, a
TableColumnModel does not know how the table columns actually appear on
screen. The visual presentation of the columns is the responsibility
of the view/controller object using this model (typically JTable). The
view/controller need not display the columns sequentially from left to
right. For example, columns could be displayed from right to left to
accomodate a locale preference or some columns might be hidden at the
request of the user. Because the model does not know how the columns
are laid out on screen, the given xPosition should not be
considered to be a coordinate in 2D graphics space. Instead, it should
be considered to be a width from the start of the first column in the
model. If the column index for a given X coordinate in 2D space is
required, JTable.columnAtPoint can be used instead.
- Returns:
- the index of the column; or -1 if no column is found
- See Also:
JTable.columnAtPoint(java.awt.Point)
getTotalColumnWidth
int getTotalColumnWidth()
- Returns the total width of all the columns.
- Returns:
- the total computed width of all columns
setColumnSelectionAllowed
void setColumnSelectionAllowed(boolean flag)
- Sets whether the columns in this model may be selected.
- Parameters:
flag - true if columns may be selected; otherwise false- See Also:
getColumnSelectionAllowed()
getColumnSelectionAllowed
boolean getColumnSelectionAllowed()
- Returns true if columns may be selected.
- Returns:
- true if columns may be selected
- See Also:
setColumnSelectionAllowed(boolean)
getSelectedColumns
int[] getSelectedColumns()
- Returns an array of indicies of all selected columns.
- Returns:
- an array of integers containing the indicies of all
selected columns; or an empty array if nothing is selected
getSelectedColumnCount
int getSelectedColumnCount()
- Returns the number of selected columns.
- Returns:
- the number of selected columns; or 0 if no columns are selected
setSelectionModel
void setSelectionModel(ListSelectionModel newModel)
- Sets the selection model.
- Parameters:
newModel - a ListSelectionModel object- See Also:
getSelectionModel()
getSelectionModel
ListSelectionModel getSelectionModel()
- Returns the current selection model.
- Returns:
- a
ListSelectionModel object - See Also:
setSelectionModel(javax.swing.ListSelectionModel)
addColumnModelListener
void addColumnModelListener(TableColumnModelListener x)
- Adds a listener for table column model events.
- Parameters:
x - a TableColumnModelListener object
removeColumnModelListener
void removeColumnModelListener(TableColumnModelListener x)
- Removes a listener for table column model events.
- Parameters:
x - a TableColumnModelListener object
