Problems setting TableCellEditor for JTable

I am trying to set a TableCellEditor for a JTable, however,
the editor never seems to get called. I can not even get
a simplified version (below) to work. When I put a breakpoint on the
return statement in getTableCellEdi torComponent, it never stops there
even though I edit cells in the table. Can anyone tell me what I am
missing. By the way, I have gotten TableCellRender ers to work with no
problems.

public class Frame1 extends JFrame
{
String[] headers = {"Column1", "Column2", "Column3"};
DefaultCellEdit or cellEditor = (new DefaultCellEdit or(new JTextField())
{
public Component getTableCellEdi torComponent(JT able table, Object
value,
boolean isSelected,
int row, int column)
{
return editorComponent ;
}
});

JPanel contentPane;
JTable jTable1 = new JTable()
{
public boolean isCellEditable( int row, int column)
{
return true;
}
};

XYLayout xYLayout1 = new XYLayout();
DefaultTableMod el tableModel = new DefaultTableMod el(headers, 5);

//Construct the frame
public Frame1()
{
enableEvents(AW TEvent.WINDOW_E VENT_MASK);
try
{
jbInit();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTra ce();
}
jTable1.setCell Editor(cellEdit or);
}

//Component initialization
private void jbInit() throws Exception
{
contentPane = (JPanel) this.getContent Pane();
contentPane.set Layout(xYLayout 1);
this.setSize(ne w Dimension(601, 455));
this.setTitle(" Frame Title");
jTable1.setMode l(tableModel);
contentPane.add (jTable1, new XYConstraints(1 9, 46, 498, 136));
}

//Overridden so we can exit when window is closed
protected void processWindowEv ent(WindowEvent e)
{
super.processWi ndowEvent(e);
if (e.getID() == WindowEvent.WIN DOW_CLOSING)
{
System.exit(0);
}
}
}

Thanks for any help you may give,

Well, got it to work by setting the cell editor for each column
separately. Still don't understand why I can set it for all columns at
once.

Hi all, I have a problem with a Checkbox in a JTable. When i add the Checkbox into the JTable it displays the String representation of the Checkbox, which is not what i want. So, i created a CheckBoxRenderer which extens Checkbox and implements TableCellRenderer. This seems to have done the job, in that the Checkbox is displayed and not the String representation. But, and it's a big 'but', the column that holds the Checkbox continually...

Hi guys, what I'm I have is a jtable with boolean variables in the first column and text in the next two (checkboxes). I want my tableChanged method to make it so when I check one of the checkboxes then it would change whether that third column is editable or not. I have made a short array that would hold values of either 0 or 1, basically whether or not each cell is editable or not. Along with that is obviously a setEditable(int row, int...
