Applying a range filter to RowFilter

Hi,

I have a JTable with some delightful information that needs to be filtered. I have applied a row filter successfully to a single column and filtered it to search for a value e.g. 205, however, I would like to search a range of data 205-250 and find all the values in this column that are anywhere in-between.

secondly I will then want to apply extra filters on top later. e.g. search a range of data in column 1 with that data being successfully found re-filter that with another set of parameters based on column2.

Thanks

You can find the answers to both parts of your question in the documentation for RowFilter.

So I have to override the include method! Is their a way so that I do not have to do this

Don't know, and to be honest I don't care. The RowFilter API provides a clean, adequately documented way to achieve the goal; why look for anything else?

Because I still think it looks ugly when applying multiple filters as its to much code for someone when they come to edit it at a later date

Not if you break it up into separate classes, each well documented, and use RowFilter#andFilter(...).

Any other approach, if you can find one, is IMHO going to be even less readable.
