Question

I have created a JTable using following code. Then i add two new columns. Then after making the row count zero, when i try to add a new row to the table i get array out of bound exception. Please help. 

//creating table structure
jTable2 = new javax.swing.JTable();
jTable2.setModel(new javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel(
        new Object [][] {
        },
        new String [] {
            "Distance (km)", "Current (A)", "Resistance (Ω)"
        }
    ) {
        Class[] types = new Class [] {
            java.lang.Double.class, java.lang.Double.class, java.lang.Double.class
        };
        boolean[] canEdit = new boolean [] {
            false, false, true
        };
        public Class getColumnClass(int columnIndex) {
            return types [columnIndex];
        }
        public boolean isCellEditable(int rowIndex, int columnIndex) {
            return canEdit [columnIndex];
        }
    });

//adding two new columns
DefaultTableModel dtm  = (DefaultTableModel) jTable2.getModel();
dtm.addColumn("Voltage (V)");
dtm.addColumn("Power (W)");    

dtm.setRowCount(0);

//adding new row
dtm.addRow(new Object[]{1,5,2,4,6});

//i get this errors

Solution

Your problem is when you add a new column, you need to extend your types variable, because that holds values only for 'default' columns, and when getColumnClass() called for new columns that throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.

EDIT:

Example of extending your model, just override addColumn() method like next:

 @Override
 public void addColumn(Object columnName) {
       Class[] temp = new Class[types.length +1];
       System.arraycopy(types, 0, temp, 0, types.length);
       temp[types.length] = Double.class;
       types = temp;
       super.addColumn(columnName);
 }
