There is setEditable(boolean b) method in JTree class.
But I can't found the similar method in
JTable, JTextField, etc.

I don't want user edit the cells in my JTable or JTextField.
How do I do that?

Thank_Q very much in advance()!

JTextField has setEditable. It's inherited from JTextComponent.

For JTable, use a TableModel that always returns false from
isCellEditable. (Or extend JTable and override its isCellEditable.) For
tables, using TableModel is usually the way to go.
