JTable - Unable to add values to newly created columns
Question
I've a requirement where, based on the content of a HashMap<String, String> , I've to add/remove columns from my table. While I'm able to add/remove columns, but my problem is that for some reason when I create new columns, the values are not getting set in the respective columns. I'm unable to figure out why.
Posting an SSCCE for your reference. Can you please tell me what am I doing wrong?

That's a lot of code to update a table. Try updating the model. Table will re-render itself. I had to change one further line:
infoTable.setAutoCreateColumnsFromModel(true);
And, Hashmap is not a good fit for the model data. How do I easily get the value at say row 3, column 2 from a HashMap?
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;
public class TableTest extends javax.swing.JFrame {
/**
* Creates new form TableTest
*/
public TableTest() {
initComponents();
}
private void updateInformationTable(HashMap<String, String> parameterMap){
infoTable.setModel(new MyTableModel(parameterMap));
}
private class MyTableModel extends DefaultTableModel{
private Map<String, String> data;
public MyTableModel(Map<String, String> data){
this.data = data;
}
public int getRowCount() {
return 1;
}
public int getColumnCount() {
return data != null ? data.size() : 0;
}
public Object getValueAt(int rowIndex, int columnIndex) {
//FIXME : Return the value here
return rowIndex + "," + columnIndex;
}
}
