No titles in JTable

Question

Please have a look at the following code

import java.awt.*;

import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.*;

public class Table extends JFrame
{
    private JTable table;

    public Table()
    {

        String[] columnNames = {"first name","last name","address"};
        Object[][]data = {{"John","Kane","NY"},{"Nayomi","Writz","NY"}};

        table = new JTable(data, columnNames);

        getContentPane().add(table);
        this.pack();
        this.setVisible(true);


    }

    public static void main(String[]args)
    {
        new Table();
    }
}

I haven't used JTable before, so this is my first attempt. In here, it is not showing the column names, just showing the data. Why is that? Please help!

reading the tutorial referenced in the swing tag description will spare you a lot of frustration :-) — kleopatra, Aug 11 '12 at 08:15

You need to put it in a JScrollPane or similar.

See the top of the API docs for JTable, and JScrollPane.
