How to write a JTable state with data in xml file using XMLEndcoder in java
I want to save JTable in xml file using XMLEncoder.
When we are saving it into a file, getting an exception:
java.lang.InstantiationException: javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTableUI$Handler
Continuing ...
java.lang.Exception: XMLEncoder: discarding statement ColorPropertyTable.removeMouseMotionListener(BasicTableUI$Handler);
Continuing ...
This answer is based on aterai's example. It is a little more complete because it will also persist the column names:

Registering for Exception Notifications
Both XMLEncoder and XMLDecoder catch exceptions and are typically able to recover from them, allowing the parts of the archive not affected by the exception to be written or read. You can find out more about any exceptions raised in the encoding and decoding processes by registering an ExceptionListener as follows:
