I tried to group JTable header and for that I want to get the DefaultTableModel of current JTable. But when I tried to retrieve the table model like this:

DefaultTableModel dm=(DefaultTableModel) tblTet.getModel();

It shows the following exception:

org.jdesktop.swingbinding.JTableBinding$BindingTableModel cannot be cast to javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel

Because I am using JTableBeansBinding.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem (for retrieving DefaultTableModel)?

According to the JavaDoc for BindingTableModel, the class doesn't extend DefaultTableModel. Rather, it implements TableModel interface. This means that you cannot cast to DefaultTableModel, only to TableModel:

TableModel dm=(TableModel) tblTet.getModel();

you have to create your table like this :

    String[] columnNames = {"Row",
            "Category",
            "From Date",
            "From Time",
            "To Date",
            "To Time",
            "Description",
            "Doc"};
    Object[][] data = {};//Table Rows

   table.setModel(new DefaultTableModel(data,columnNames));

instead of: 

   table=new JTable(data,columnNames);

then you can cast your table model to defaultTableModel.

  • normally, yes. But the OP is using (Better)BeansBinding and has no control about the type of the internally assigned TableModel – kleopatra Feb 08 '13 at 08:28
