Anand, I should have given more information. The dialog has a panel which has different data editors depending on how it is invoked. In some cases, the panel may not even have a table. In short, dialog doesnot have an idea of what is being edited. In some cases, its JTable, in some cases its just a JTextField or it could anything else.
If I make OK button to find out what it is, I am making dialog sensitive to data editor instance which I wanted to avoid because its a not a good bean design pattern. let me know if there is any other way out. Also I have noticed that if I set a cell editor on a table, then I can start editing cell, either by single clicking or double clicking. BUUUT...surprisngly enough ONLY when I double click, I see my JTextField table cell renderer otherwise for single click JTable renders something else than what I set !!!!!!!!!!!! ( My cell renderer which is a JTextField has some properties set so that it looks good when user starts editing ) Any idea whats going on here ? rgds Peter --- Anand Hariharan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Peter : > > We had the same problem and this is how we handle it : > > Consider m_EditTable as the table that is being currently edited. > Execute this code when OK is clicked. > > > if(m_Table.isEditing()) > { > Component c = m_Table.getEditorComponent(); > if(c != null) > { > String val = ""; > if(c instanceof JTextField) > val = ((JTextField)c).getText(); > /*else if( c instanceof SomeOtherComponent ) > val = (String) GetStringValueFromComponent;*/ > m_Table.getModel().setValueAt (val, m_Table.getEditingRow(), > m_Table.getEditingColumn()); > > m_Table.removeEditor(); > } > } > > Regards, > _anand > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > http://www.javareference.com (Articles/Examples and more !) > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Peter Peterson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, December 19, 2002 9:41 AM > Subject: JTable editing problem... > > > > Hi, > > > > I have a JDialog which has OK/Cancel button.
