JTable column widths
Hi,
I would like to make a table such that, when the table gets populated with data from the TableModel, the columns that appear in the table are the width of the heading. So that the whole column heading is visible and the user doesn't have to manually expand the colum width.
Here are some code snippets...
privatevoid createTableModel(String query)throws SQLException{
System.out.println(query);
rs = stmt.executeQuery(query);
if (scrolling){
if (transType.equals("Parcel Lookup")){
tableModel =new ParcelLookUpHISTableModel(rs, tableName);
}else{
tableModel =new ScrollingHISTableModel(rs, tableName);
}
}else{
tableModel =new CachingHISTableModel(rs);
}
}
private JTable setUpTable(){
JTable table =new JTable(tableModel);
table.setSelectionForeground(Color.white);
table.setSelectionBackground(Color.red);
table.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);
table.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
return table;
}
now when i get the table in the JScrollPane and show it, the table is fine but the column widths are all one equal size.
JScrollPane scrollPane =new JScrollPane(table);
informationPanel.setLayout(new GridBagLayout());
GridBagConstraints gbc =new GridBagConstraints();
gbc.gridx = 0;
gbc.gridy = 0;
gbc.gridwidth = 6;
gbc.gridheight = 6;
gbc.fill = GridBagConstraints.HORIZONTAL;
informationPanel.add(scrollPane, gbc);
Is there a logical way around this?
Thank You,
-Uday
