Change row color based on column value using Java PaginationUI swing

Question

I am trying to change the row color based on the last column's value

Following is the code used:

PaginationUI pageUI =new PaginationUI();
        this.dialog = new JDialog(jFrame, csvName, true);
 pageUI.setCurrentPageIndex(1);
        pageUI.setItemsPerPage(itemsPerPage);
        pageUI.setHeader(header);
        pageUI.setData(data);   

        pageUI.paintPaginatedData();  

Plz help. I need to check the last value of the "data" Arraylist. Depending on that if value is "abc" ,need to change the value of that row.

I went through Change the background color of a row in a JTable

and did most of the things suggested therein, except the MyTableCellRenderer, which I did not understand where that is implemented.

See Table Row Rendering for one solution that works by overriding the prepareRenderer(...) method of the JTable , so you don't need to provide a custom renderer for each data type in the table.

No, you should NOT be referencing the ArrayList. You should only ever reference the data in the TableModel .

Then it should work. The problem is with your code. Post your SSCCE that demonstrates your problem if the above solution doesn't help.
