unable to get row index in JTable

[Rajapragada Dharani]

HI All,
I'am having problem in getting the index of row once a selection is made.I have implemented all the required methods but still problem persists.

The problem is in the last line

myTableModel.getValueAt(myTable.getSelectedRow(),0);

were it throws an exception:
"java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -1
at java.util.Vector.get(Vector.java:711)"

Here's the brief code I have attached please suggest me some solution.



Thanks in advance,
Rajarao.


public class myTableModel extends AbstractTableModel {

private Vector datalist;
private String[] columns = {"Hostname", "Serial Number","Registration"};

public myTableModel() {
}

public myTableModel(Vector l) {
datalist = l;
}

public String getColumnName(int col) {
return columns[col];
}

public int getColumnCount() {
return columns.length;
}


public int getRowCount() {
return datalist.size();
}


public Object getValueAt(int row, int col) {

Vector rowList = (Vector)datalist.get(row);

if(rowList.firstElement()!=null) {

switch (col) {

case 0:
return (String) rowList.elementAt(0);
case 1:
return (String) rowList.elementAt(1);
case 2:
return (String) rowList.elementAt(2);
default:
return null;
}
}else return null;

}



// This one method decides exactly which cells are editable.
public boolean isCellEditable(int row, int col) {
switch (col) {

case 0: //Hostname
return false;
case 1: //Product Family
return false;
case 2: //Serial Number
return false;
default:
return false;
}
}


public Class getColumnClass(int col) {
switch (col) {

case 0: //Hostname
return String.class;
case 1: //Product Family
return String.class;
case 2: //Serial Number
return String.class;
default:
return null;
}
}

public void removeRowAt(int row) {

ArrayList removeRow = (ArrayList) datalist.remove(row);
fireTableDataChanged();

}

}


****************************************************************************
//This is from my main class which implements ListSelectionListener


myTableModel myTableModel;
JTable myTable;

Vector tableData = new Vector();
//this returns all the data to be shown in table
tableData = returnList();

myTableModel = new myTableModel(tableData);
myTable = new JTable(myTableModel);

myTable.setRowSelectionAllowed(true);
myTable.setColumnSelectionAllowed(false);

scrollList = new JScrollPane(myTable); //panelScroller);
myTable.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
ListSelectionModel mySM = myTable.getSelectionModel();
mySM.addListSelectionListener(this);

myTable.addMouseListener(this);

public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent mySelectionEvent)
{
if (mySelectionEvent.getValueIsAdjusting()) return;

ListSelectionModel lsm = (ListSelectionModel)mySelectionEvent.getSource();
//Here i wanted to do same action if selection is empty.
String hostName;
hostName = (String)myTableModel.getValueAt(myTable.getSelectedRow(),0);
}

One problem with this code is that
you name your variable myTableModel the same as the class myTableModel.
The class should start with caps: MyTableModel
so it does not conflict with the instance name myTableModel.

Please post the rest of your main class if that doesn't help.
