edit Jtable properties

Question

I am new in java and I have a task to do I have a swing JTable , and I want to disable rows editing and keep the selection available . I am using this code

public boolean isCellEditable(int row, int column) {
                    return false;
            }

I did not initialize the table dynamically ,but by drag and drop from swing. my question is how to add this code to my table, do I have to change the swing to another type?

Answer 1

If you dragged and dropped the JTable from an editor ( for example if you are using NetBeans or Eclipse which have a designer included in) you just have to select JTable item and set the Editable proprety to disabled:

anyway as Oracle Javadoc suggest at this link: JavaDoc_JTable_setCellSelection

you could also set to false with method:

YourJTable.setCellSelectionEnabled(false);
