how to sort JTable by providing column index externally.
- by user345940
I would like to implement sorting on JTable by providing column index externally in program. Here is my sample code in which i have initialize JTable, Add one Column and 30 rows to JTable. After rows has been added i am sorting JTable by providing column index 0 but i could not get sorted data. how can i get my first column in sorted order? what's wrong with my code. **Why sortCTableonColumnIndex() method could not sort data for specify column index? `
public class Test {
private JTable oCTable;
private DefaultTableModel oDefaultTableModel;
private JScrollPane oPane;
private JTableHeader oTableHeader;
private TableRowSorter sorter;
public void adddata() {
for (int i = 0; i < 30; i++) {
Object[] row = new Object[1];
String sValueA = "A";
String sValueB = "A";
row[0] = "";
if (i % 2 == 0) {
if (i < 15) {
sValueA = sValueA + sValueA;
row[1] = sValueA;
} else {
if (i == 16) {
sValueB = "D";
row[1] = sValueA;
} else {
sValueB = sValueB + sValueB;
row[1] = sValueA;
}
}
} else {
if (i < 15) {
sValueB = sValueB + sValueB;
row[1] = sValueB;
} else {
if (i == 17) {
sValueB = "C";
row[1] = sValueB;
} else {
sValueB = sValueB + sValueB;
row[1] = sValueB;
}
}
}
}
