can i override two methods

[cchetan jain]

have made a object of JTable.but now i want to avoid user editing and set the color to the alternate tables..
but problem is that this code gives the compile time error.
now how can i do it.
one solution to this problem is that i extends the JTable and override these methods..and then make a object of that..
bt i want to ask that is there another solution for that.

   JTable jTable1=new jTable1();   
jTable1.setModel(new javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel(tb,   
            new String [] {   
                "Department", "Speciality Name"  
            }   
        ){  public boolean isCellEditable(int row,int col)   
        {   
            return false;   
        }} {public Component prepareRenderer(TableCellRenderer renderer,   
                                         int rowIndex, int vColIndex) {   
            Component c = super.prepareRenderer(renderer, rowIndex, vColIndex);   
            if (rowIndex % 2 == 0 && !isCellSelected(rowIndex, vColIndex)) {   
                c.setBackground(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);   
            } else {   
                // If not shaded, match the table's background   
                //c.setBackground(getBackground());   
                c.setBackground(this.getBackground());   
                   
            }   
            return c;   
        }     }   );   
        );     
JTable jTable1=new jTable1();
jTable1.setModel(new javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel(tb,
            new String [] {
                "Department", "Speciality Name"
            }
        ){	public boolean isCellEditable(int row,int col)
        {
        	return false;
        }} {public Component prepareRenderer(TableCellRenderer renderer,
                                         int rowIndex, int vColIndex) {
            Component c = super.prepareRenderer(renderer, rowIndex, vColIndex);
            if (rowIndex % 2 == 0 && !isCellSelected(rowIndex, vColIndex)) {
                c.setBackground(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);
            } else {
                // If not shaded, match the table's background
                //c.setBackground(getBackground());
                c.setBackground(this.getBackground());
                
            }
            return c;
        }     }   );
        );

please help me ..what is the problem in this..

Are you using an IDE to write the code? I am really confused with you code's braces.

[Campbell Ritchie]

Please supply more details. Which compiler error do you suffer? And, as you have been told, your poorly-indented code is very difficult to understand.

JTable jTable1=new jTable1();
jTable1.setModel(new javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel(tb,
new String []
{
    "Department", "Speciality Name"
}
)
{
    public boolean isCellEditable(int row,int col)
    {
        return false;
    }
}
{
    public Component prepareRenderer(TableCellRenderer renderer,
    int rowIndex, int vColIndex)
    {
        Component c = super.prepareRenderer(renderer, rowIndex, vColIndex);
        if (rowIndex % 2 == 0 && !isCellSelected(rowIndex, vColIndex))
        {
            c.setBackground(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);
        }
        else
        {
            // If not shaded, match the table's background
            //c.setBackground(getBackground());
            c.setBackground(this.getBackground());
        }
        return c;
    }
}
);
);
JTable jTable1=new jTable1();
jTable1.setModel(new javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel(tb,
new String []
{
    "Department", "Speciality Name"
}
)
{
    public boolean isCellEditable(int row,int col)
    {
        return false;
    }
}
{
    public Component prepareRenderer(TableCellRenderer renderer,
    int rowIndex, int vColIndex)
    {
        Component c = super.prepareRenderer(renderer, rowIndex, vColIndex);
        if (rowIndex % 2 == 0 && !isCellSelected(rowIndex, vColIndex))
        {
            c.setBackground(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);
        }
        else
        {
            // If not shaded, match the table's background
            //c.setBackground(getBackground());
            c.setBackground(this.getBackground());
        }
        return c;
    }
}
);
);

If i am not wrong, Is your code using code blocks for no apparent reason at all ???
I wonder the scope of the functions in that case.

[Himanshu Kansal]

I too am doubtful of the braces. Would like to know what the compiler said!

My guess is that those code blocks were part of an anonymous subclass of JTable originally, but the call to setModel() was inserted in the middle, thus orphaning them and making a mess of the code. Here's a small example of making a JTable which isn't editable:

JTable jTable1=new JTable()
{  
    public boolean isCellEditable(int row,int col)  
    {  
        return false;  
    }  
};

And in answer to the question in the post title, yes, you could override a second method by putting it inside that block right after the declaration of isCellEditable.

I am still curious to know what the compiler said .....
