 This abstract class provides default implementations for most of
 the methods in the TableModel interface. It takes care of
 the management of listeners and provides some conveniences for generating
 TableModelEvents and dispatching them to the listeners.
 To create a concrete TableModel as a subclass of
 AbstractTableModel you need only provide implementations
 for the following three methods:
 
 public int getRowCount();
 public int getColumnCount();
 public Object getValueAt(int row, int column);
 



Warning:
Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
the same version of Swing.  As of 1.4, support for long term storage
of all JavaBeans™
has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

Notifies all listeners that all cell values in the table's

Returns an array of all the objects currently registered
as FooListeners
upon this AbstractTableModel.
FooListeners are registered using the
addFooListener method.


You can specify the listenerType argument
with a class literal,
such as
FooListener.class.
For example, you can query a
model m
for its table model listeners with the following code:

TableModelListener[] tmls = (TableModelListener[])(m.getListeners(TableModelListener.class));

If no such listeners exist, this method returns an empty array.

Params:

         should specify an interface that descends from
         java.util.EventListener
Throws:
  • ClassCastException – if listenerType
         doesn't specify a class or interface that implements
         java.util.EventListener
