Sorting of JCombo Box's Not working while sorting Jtable Column

Question

When a sorter/autoRowSorter added to JTable that contains with different JCombo Box in the table cell is sorted with column header, Jcombo Box's are not sorted with respective to row.

JCombo Box is clicked to change the data it ended up in showing Model values of combo box rather than view values(Row related Values).

Example found on internet, using the same to illustrate the problem. I have just added setAutoCreateRowSorter(true)

Reference of Code:

I do understand that mapping with respective to view is not done correctly when the sorting is done

And that is what you need to fix.

Basically you can no longer access the editor based on the row of the table. Instead you need to convert the table row to the model row.

int modelRow = table.convertRowIndexToModel(tableRow);

Then you access the editor map by using the modelRow.
