Table Header not displayed

Thread view: 
Manish Hatwalne - 29 Apr 2004 08:21 GMT
I need to display tooltips for my Jtable header. hence I subclassed
JTableHeader as follows -

protected class TooltipHeader extends JTableHeader{

public String getToolTipText(MouseEvent e){
 int column = columnAtPoint(e.getPoint());
 if (column == -1){
  return getToolTipText();
 }
 int dataColumn = getColumnModel().getColumn(column).getModelIndex();
 TableColumn tc = getColumnModel().getColumn(dataColumn);
 return tc.getHeaderValue().toString();
}
}

And set it as a Header for th etable, however with this header my Jtable
header is not visible at all. What could be wrong?

TIA,
- Manish

Got It.
Added constructor to this class which took a ColumnModel and passed it to
super. Worked properly. :)
