How to make a jtable not editable in java?
private TableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(data, columnNames)
{
public boolean isCellEditable(int row, int column)
{
return false;//This causes all cells to be not editable
}
};
private JTable table = new JTable(model);
Edited. If you are doing this in Netbeans IDE designer, follow the steps below:
- Select the form on which the JTable is placed
- From the Navigation Pane, expand JScrollPane and right-click on JTable and Select Customize Code as shown below:
- On the code customizer, select the second drop down and choose custom property. This enables you to edit the DefaultTableModel code definition.
- Now paste this:
{public boolean isCellEditable(int row, int column){return false;}}
before the last closing blacket );
Your final setup should look as shown below:
- Press ok to save - and job done.
If you use DefaultTableModel you can override the method isCellEditable and implement it when constructing GUI:
table.setModel(new DefaultTableModel() {
@Override
public boolean isCellEditable(int row, int column) {
return false;
}
});
