Using setValueAt to recreate mutually exclusive check boxes
Don't add your own MouseListener
. Instead override setValueAt()
in the TableModel
to see the new value set by the default editor for Boolean.class
.
Addendum: Here's an sscce. For expedience, it simply clears all entries in CHECK_COL
, sets the new value and conditions the button accordingly.
