JTable cell color URGENT

[shashikant kulkarni]

Hi All
How to change the color of the cell (not the entire row)depending on the value present in it?

Thanks...

Hi,
You can set the color for a single cell by setting a CellRenderer to a column & then check for row & column.
First :
TableColumnModel colmod = table.getColumnModel();
colmod.getColumn(0).setCellRenderer(new ColorRenderer());
Second:

class ColorRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable myTable,
Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,
int column) {
super.getTableCellRendererComponent(myTable, value, isSelected,
hasFocus, row, column);
if(isSelected == false){
setBackground((((row == 1)) && (column == 0))// particular cell
? (Color.blue)
: Color.red));
}
return this;
}
}
.
.
.
You can change row ==1 or column == 1 check by even getting cell value using
myTable.getValueAt(row,column).toString("...")
if you want to check otherwise.
