Method Detail

editorForAssociation

public EOColumnEditor editorForAssociation(EOTableColumnAssociation association)

Returns an EOColumnEditor which will be used as a TableCellEditor for this column. Since the editor needs to communicate with other parts of this framework, it needs to be a subclass of EOColumnEditor See also EOColumnEditor and EOTextColumnEditor, as well as the Swing documentation for TableCellEditor.

Parameters:

association - the EOTableColumnAssociation for which to return an editor; this is supplied as a parameter so that the same TableColumnCustomizer can be used for multiple columns

Returns:

EOColumnEditor a subclass of EOColumnEditor to be used for this column

rendererForAssociation

public TableCellRenderer rendererForAssociation(EOTableColumnAssociation association)

Returns an TableCellRenderer to be used for this column. See the Swing documentation on the TableCellRenderer class.

Parameters:

association - the EOTableColumnAssociation for which to return an editor; this is supplied as a parameter so that the same TableColumnCustomizer can be used for multiple columns

Returns:

TableCellRenderer a subclass of TableCellRenderer to be used for this column
