Question

How to make a JTable non-editable? I don’t want my users to be able to edit the values in cells by double-clicking them.

Answer 1

You can use a TableModel.

Define a class like this:

public class MyModel extends AbstractTableModel{
    //not necessary
}

actually isCellEditable() is false by default so you may omit it. (see: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/table/AbstractTableModel.html)

Then use the setModel() method of your JTable.

JTable myTable = new JTable();
myTable.setModel(new MyModel());
