Class TableLayout

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    LayoutManager, LayoutManager2
    public class TableLayout
extends Object
implements LayoutManager2
    A convenient layout manager that allows multiple components to be laid out in form of a table-like grid.

    It uses the same parameters as Swing's standard GridBagLayout manager, however clients don't have to deal with GridBagConstraints. Instead, they can easily use the the various setters to adjust single parameters. Parameters can be specified for

    1. the entire table: setTable<Param>(),
    2. an entire row: setRow<Param>(),
    3. an entire column: setColumn<Param>(),
    4. each cell separately: setCell<Param>().
    Note that type-safe enums exists for the fill and anchor parameter values.

    Any parameter settings may be removed from the layout by passing null as value.

    Components are added to their container using a cell(row, col) or cell(row, col, rowspan, colspan) constraint, for example: 

          panel.add(new JLabel("Iterations:"), TableLayout.cell(0, 3));
