Populating a JList with multiplte Views

Question

I have the following problem:
I want to populate several JLists with the class "Worker". In the Worker Class, there is a field of WorkerType (an Enum). The ListModel for each View should be the same Type and same Instance, so that when a Worker gets deleted in one View it shouldn't be visible in the other Views anymore. Is this possible?

Answer 1

Might be easier to use a single column JTable. A JTable supports filtering, so each view can be created to show only a specific worker type.

Read the section from the Swing tutorial on Sorting and Filtering for more information.
