Class VisibilityTableColumnModel

java.lang.Object
  javax.swing.table.DefaultTableColumnModel
      jadex.util.jtable.VisibilityTableColumnModel

All Implemented Interfaces:

IVisibilityTableColumnModel, PropertyChangeListener, Serializable, EventListener, ListSelectionListener, TableColumnModel

public class VisibilityTableColumnModel
extends DefaultTableColumnModel
implements IVisibilityTableColumnModel

VisibilityTableColumnModel extends the DefaultTableColumnModel . It provides a comfortable way to hide/show columns. Columns keep their positions when hidden and shown again. In order to work with JTable it cannot add any events to TableColumnModelListener. Therefore hiding a column will result in columnRemoved event and showing it again will notify listeners of a columnAdded, and possibly a columnMoved event. For the same reason the following methods still deal with visible columns only: getColumnCount(), getColumns(), getColumnIndex(), getColumn() If you want to take invisible column into account use: getAllColumnCount(), getAllColumns(), getAllColumnIndex(), getAllColumn()

Constructor Detail

VisibilityTableColumnModel

public VisibilityTableColumnModel()

Creates an extended table column model.

Method Detail

addColumn

public void addColumn(TableColumn column)

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

Specified by:

addColumn in interface TableColumnModel

Overrides:

addColumn in class DefaultTableColumnModel

Parameters:

column - the TableColumn to be added

See Also:

DefaultTableColumnModel.addColumn(javax.swing.table.TableColumn)

removeColumn

public 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.

Specified by:

removeColumn in interface TableColumnModel

Overrides:

removeColumn in class DefaultTableColumnModel

Parameters:

column - the TableColumn to be removed

See Also:

DefaultTableColumnModel.removeColumn(javax.swing.table.TableColumn)

moveColumn

public 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.

Specified by:

moveColumn in interface TableColumnModel

Overrides:

moveColumn in class DefaultTableColumnModel

Parameters:

columnIndex - the index of column to be moved

newIndex - index of the column's new location

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if columnIndex or newIndex are not in the valid range

See Also:

DefaultTableColumnModel.moveColumn(int, int)

getAllColumnCount

public int getAllColumnCount()

Returns the number of columns in the model.
All columns whether visible or not are taken into account !!!

Specified by:

getAllColumnCount in interface IVisibilityTableColumnModel

Returns:

the number of columns in the model

getAllColumns

public Enumeration getAllColumns()

Returns an Enumeration of all the columns in the model.
All columns whether visible or not are taken into account !!!

Specified by:

getAllColumns in interface IVisibilityTableColumnModel

Returns:

an Enumeration of all the columns in the model

getAllColumnIndex

public int getAllColumnIndex(Object identifier)

Returns the index of the first column in the table whose identifier is equal to identifier, when compared using equals.
All columns whether visible or not are taken into account !!!

Specified by:

getAllColumnIndex in interface IVisibilityTableColumnModel

Parameters:

identifier - 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:

getAllColumn(int)

getAllColumn

public TableColumn getAllColumn(int columnIndex)

Returns the TableColumn object for the column at columnIndex.
All columns whether visible or not are taken into account !!!

Specified by:

getAllColumn in interface IVisibilityTableColumnModel

Parameters:

columnIndex - the index of the desired column

Returns:

the TableColumn object for the column at columnIndex

setColumnVisible

public void setColumnVisible(TableColumn column,
                             boolean visible)

Sets the visibility of the specified TableColumn. The call is ignored if the TableColumn is not found in this column model or its visibility status did not change. This method posts a columnAdded or columnRemoved event to its listeners.

Specified by:

setColumnVisible in interface IVisibilityTableColumnModel

Parameters:

column - the TableColumn

visible - its new visibility status

setAllColumnsVisible

public void setAllColumnsVisible()

Makes all columns in this model visible

Specified by:

setAllColumnsVisible in interface IVisibilityTableColumnModel

See Also:

isColumnVisible(javax.swing.table.TableColumn), setColumnVisible(javax.swing.table.TableColumn, boolean)

isColumnVisible

Checks whether the specified column is currently visible.

Specified by:

isColumnVisible in interface IVisibilityTableColumnModel

Parameters:

aColumn - column to check

Returns:

visibility of specified column. false if there is no such column at all.
