Editing in a JList

Posted: Apr 20, 2005 5:32 AM

I'd like to create a list rows of options based on a database.
Every row should have a Checkbox and some info.

So I created a class based on JPanel to display all the stuff and wrote a ListCellrender for my JList object to show it.

But I can't change the value of the checkbox.

This is the first time I try it with a JList, until now I did such things with a JTable.
Only now I realized I can't set a Editor for the ListCell.

Is that normal?
Is there a way to make the content editable?

Or do I have to use a JTable?

A JList is for displaying only, as stated in the documentation.

Just use a one-column JTable:-)

I juste hoped there would be another way.

I recreated the list using JTable and it works pretty good.

But I'm not able to make it look exactly like a JList (background, cell separator lines, headers). There are allways differences.
