I was just looking at this same code too - and that's how it looks to me. So the claim in the report AND the evaluation both look wrong to me. But verify this with testing. I am not sure but it seems like merely doing whatever it is to install a RowSorter will ttigger that code path and the code the submitter pointed to is only used if the model row == the view row .. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/7253
