An abstract implementation of the {@link javax.swing.table.TableModel} interface that converts a {@link javax.swing.ListModel} of row elements.
This class provides default implementations for the TableModel methods #getColumnCount() and #getColumnName(int). To use these methods you must use the constructor that accepts an array of column names and this array must not be null. If a subclass constructs itself with the column names set to null it must override the methods #getColumnCount() and #getColumnName(int).
Example: API users subclass AbstractTableAdapter and just implement the method TableModel#getValueAt(int, int).
The following example implementation is based on a list of customer rows and exposes the first and last name as well as the customer ages:
public class CustomerTableModel extends AbstractTableAdapter { private static final String[] COLUMN_NAMES = { "Last Name", "First Name", "Age" }; public CustomerTableModel(ListModel listModel) { super(listModel, COLUMN_NAMES); } public Object getValueAt(int rowIndex, int columnIndex) { Customer customer = (Customer) getRow(rowIndex); switch (columnIndex) { case 0 : return customer.getLastName(); case 1 : return customer.getFirstName(); case 2 : return customer.getAge(); default: return null; } } }
